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.

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

Spotted in the MAKE Flickr pool, photo and build by user JustJon. It uses an Arduino + adafruit Wave Shield to play the Doctor Who theme and flash the siren light. There's more info, plus video, at JustJon's personal site.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

That's a pretty great list, but the XF choice is weird, I agree.

I found myself surprised that i was enjoying this badass and slightly pyschotic version of Stefan.

I wasn't surprised that I enjoy this version of Stefan, because I prefer my vampires badass and slightly psychotic. As they are supposed to be, dammit.

I'll admit, I was a little sad that Jeremy didn't become a vampire. But hey, vampire Caroline works for me.

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

I haven't decided if I think Stefan is all talk or not. I know he's really protective of Elena, but I'm not sure he'd kill her father.

Yet.

But this show is weird.

I did not see vampire Caroline coming.

perhaps i should rephrase. i was suprised to find myself enjoying Stefan period. it was unnatural for me. he's a bit more tolerable for me in the books.

have y'all read the books? Vamp Caroline is a huuuuuuuuuuuuge improvement. she truly creeped me the hell out in the books.

Yes, I've read the books. While wincing. Hell, the version of every character on the show is huuuuuuuuge improvement over the book versions.

ha! you're probably right about that. though i do still think Stefan is more tolerable in the books. i really like Meredith and i'm kind of bummed they kinda smushed her and Bonnie's character to make show!Bonnie.
