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.

Ooh, that's one I can rewatch!

I just rewatched the first x-mas special. That was just such a cool introduction to the awesomeness that is Tennant.

Oh, I just googled Tennant to make sure I had the correct spelling, and one of those ads on the righthand side of the google results showed up:

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Sits in the DS9 corner in great company.

Seriously. I can only watch choice Next Gen episodes - the ones that aren't make me cringe now. But I love most of DS9, once you get past the first season awkward period (and I'd argue still less painful than TNG first season awkward period, plus a WAY better pilot).

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I always have to excuse the first season of TNG because they did the best they could given there was a writer's strike.

Much as I've grown fond of Wil Wheaton, nothing will excuse early Wesley Crusher.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Oh, yay, Andre Royo in the Fringe preview! I was hoping we'd see him again.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

It did end up paying off years later thanks to jokes on The Big Bang Theory.

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.

That explains some of the haircuts on that show.

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

And I remain in the "Galactica was more hilarious than bleak, and I had no problem with the finale" corner. Alone.

Definitely not alone, at least in terms of the finale. I had no big problems with how they ended the show.

DS9 was the best ST, but certain TNG eps are standouts. In addition to the big changers such as Best of Both Worlds and Yesterday's Enterprise, I really liked standalones such as Cause and Effect.

All is well that ends in pizza.

"The inner light" where Picard lived a life (and learned the flute) was good.
