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.

it could be he'll just miss having an effective agent.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Man, I'm going to miss Charlie when this is said and done. Maybe they can steal him?

I'm hoping so too.

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

Santuary: I thought Henry and the Big Guy were in a romantic relationship. Was I wrong about that all this time? The subtext actually seemed to be screaming TEXT.

It totally did look that way, didn't it? But Henry did have another abortive relationship, with that woman from his past.

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

I want both Charlie and Lincoln from the AU to come over and work with "our" Olivia.

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

in order for that to work, we need to send two people from our universe over there.

any suggestions?

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

Really liked the FBI/what's an FBI?/the FBI has been defunct for a decade bit from the last ep, because I hadn't noticed she shouted it when she was rescuing the kid, so when he brought it up from his hospital bed, I was all, "Wha...? Oh!"

I noticed when she said it, but it didn't register as weird since I didn't know there was no FBI on the Other Side.

I also thought Broyles' (sp?) kid was played really well. Good job, actor kid.

Yeah, he was really good. With the tears!

ZOMG AAAARGGGH MESSAGE FOR PETER YAAARRGGH.

I really don't want this show to be canceled! It's one of my very favorite shows right now. My favorite show on network TV, even. (Favorite on cable: Terriers. Favorite on premium cable: Dexter.)

I just realized that this season of Fringe is basically like season three of Farscape.

I want both Charlie and Lincoln from the AU to come over and work with "our" Olivia.

Yes to this. I don't want to lose them!

in order for that to work, we need to send two people from our universe over there.

My first instinct was to give them some politician I don't like, but I kind of love the AU so that would be mean to them.

Maybe we can give them our Bono and some other entertainer they don't have. Not that I don't like Bono - I do - but we've already gotten to enjoy him; they should get to as well. And he'd write some awesome songs about the Amber Tragedy. I wonder if they have Springsteen; maybe we can send ours over on a similar mission.

I just realized that this season of Fringe is basically like season three of Farscape.

I have had that thought and it worries me; I don't want Peter to have to watch Fauxlivia die. I like both Olivias too much.

"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

Santuary: I thought Henry and the Big Guy were in a romantic relationship. Was I wrong about that all this time? The subtext actually seemed to be screaming TEXT.

I think being asked about that in Season 1 freaked Ryan Robbins out enough that they backed off almost any onscreen personal interaction between the two characters later in the series.

Though how he could film multiple takes of Christopher Heyerdahl cradling his cheek and telling him they would go through his journey together and not pick up on the subtext until someone questioned him about it afterward is a mystery to me.
