'Out Of Gas'


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.

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

IO9 rates Vampire Diaries as one of the best TV adaptations of a novel.

And they call it The Crackpipe Diaries, so I think I'm on the same page as they are.

I didn't know that 6 Million Dollar Man was an adaptation. Or that the first Lathe of Heaven didn't suck.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Or that the first Lathe of Heaven didn't suck.

This version? It's a classic! My teenaged self was freaked out!

You have to remember that being a 5-time Olympic medalist means Hilary Knight has been playing hockey at an elite level at least 16 years. It's impossible for her to be a teenage girl less than 16 years old, thus the President's complete lack of interest.

I didn't know that 6 Million Dollar Man was an adaptation.

From a Martin Caidin novel, asn't it? I remember him saying that in all the years he was a consultant, they only asked him one question (how to bring Jamie Summers back).

Save Caprica, mail an apple.

Good luck, guys!

They pay me in WOIMS

For the next Galactica spinoff, they should feature something like diamond rings in their promotions.

Art Crawl!!!

An apple?

ETA: didn't some misguided people try to do that for Firefly?

I seem to remember Allyson shrieking in horror at the prospect. Maybe SyFy will get confused.

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

Yeah, they'll get a bunch of apples and won't know what show they're for. Maybe they'll bring back Firefly instead.

I hadn't realised David Fury had left Terra Nova. Now, however, most of the writers are gone, at least for now.

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore
