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.

I finished the first series of Doctor Who last night (the new first series, not the stuff from the 60s) and I'm LOVING it. So, thank you all for the recommendation!!

The Walking Dead -- so we still don't know what became of Merle? AND, Rick and the rest RAN back to the camp!? From downtown Atlanta?

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

Yay!

I think season two is my fave of the new series. Also, be sure to watch the Christmas Special before season two (on iTunes at least, the Christmas Special is the first episode of season two).

The Christmas Special is listed at the first episode of season two on Netflix as well, which I was glad about; I was going to be annoyed if I had to track down the Christmas specials elsewhere!!

My favorite episodes of the first season were definitely The Empty Child/The Doctor Dances. Super creepy but really fantastic. I might have nightmares every time I see a gas mask for the rest of my life, but oh well.

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

it's because to be zombies they'd have to have been called forth in that particular voudoun ritual and lots of "zombie" movies have walking dead type creatures that owe nothing to a ritual.

But we'd call them zombies anyway. We are calling them zombies.

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

There were so many great parts in that. I loved when Captain Jack makes fun of the Doctor's sonic screwdriver. ("Who looks at a screwdriver and thinks, 'This could be more sonic'?")
