Boxed Set, Vol. V: Just a Hint of Denial and a Dash of Retcon  

A topic for the discussion of Doctor Who, Arrow, and The Flash. Beware possible invasions of iZombie, Sleepy Hollow, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi, superhero, or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect adult content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.

Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.

Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.

Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.

This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

now she gets to ditch the (fairly unattractive) uniform for civvies, so go her.

Yeah, considering what a nice law enforcement uniform does for a good masculine figure, it does the opposite for a good feminine figure. Jo rocked the stylish business look.

And as for questions about Global Dynamics having a head of security before, well, they have always had security, so presumably their security department had a head of some kind (not ruling out a head in a jar, Futurama-style). It is somewhat odd that they have never shown Jack having to communicate with that head of the security department, going instead through Stark or Alison to deal with GD's security people. So anyway, even though the head of security was never on screen, there had to have been one, and to give that job to Jo as a way to keep her security brilliance in Eureka, it makes sense.

I don't know if this was posted here before, but this is extremely cool: BBC's Mythology Engine, demonstrated via DW (posted in March, so I don't think it includes the current season): [link]

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I really don't buy the argument that telling people about the time travel is some big destabilizing problem.

I'm not sure we have to - we only have to believe that the DoD thinks it is.

Vincent thinking that Carter proposed to Tess is going to bite Carter in the ass. If it doesn't, I'll be disappointed.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

So I've been watching earlier seasons of Doctor Who.... Originally I didn't like the 9th Doctor that much and stopped watching. Now he's grown on me, but I still like 10 and 11 more.

Oh, I totally love the "School Reunion" episode, as it has evil Giles, Sarah Jane Smith and K-9 - such a fun, yet kinda' sad episode.

I have a question about Torchwood. Is it completely independent of Doctor Who (I mean once it gets started)? Or are there crossover episodes or events? And if so, what season of Who corresponds to the first season of Torchwood?

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Torchwood's first season is set after the Ninth Doctor's season. It's mostly independent, but there are a few crossovers here and there.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

9 is Hardison's favourite Doctor.

FWIW.

Also mine.

Is someone here making fun of Diana Rigg?

It's weird - I actually find 9 more attractive than 10 or 11, but for some reason 10 and 11 are more my ideal doctors.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

9 was my first and favorite Doctor, but the people I know (2) IRL who are Dr Who fans HATED him.

Chris, head on over to Natter. Diana Rigg linkage over there. I didn't read it, but I don't know if it's like a mocking thing.
