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.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

I haven't seen it for years, but when it was airing on some obscure cable channel we happened to get, I was ALL ABOUT IT.

Seriously, it really was the most cracktastic stuff. Ridiculous, yet somehow compelling.

Someone told me the actor who played Bray is on Legend of the Seeker, and I almost looked into that just for that reason.

I...hadn't heard that...and may have to have the same reaction for the same reason.

So. Favorite characters? Plotlines? I really loved the whole crazy religious cult of the Chosen, but then the Technos were really freaking awesome.

It's been a while so it all runs together. Lessee, off the top of my head...one of my faves was Jack (I'm always a fan of the geeky boys), I loved Bray (most of the time), I had a real fondness for Pride, really liked May (once reformed), and really liked May & Pride together - and really appreciated the complexity of their relationship. I quite liked Ryan (after they stopped writing him as stupid) because I'm also fond of the big teddy bear types, and I enjoyed his & Salene's relationship. The Technos were an interesting group, and what a power-base in a post-apocalyptic world, but their leader...blanking on the name...written and/or acted so OOT, really bugged.

Or maybe I just thought Jay and Mega were attractive.

It is just possible that I might, maybe perhaps still have a password that I use relatively regularly invoking the Jay character. Maybe.

And just noticed the time...got an appt in 20 minutes, so apparently that's all I have to say.

S4 wasn't entirely their fault

Yeah, I have definite issues with Farscape S4. I'm still cranky about a lot of what happened there. Although those issues mostly had to do with arcs, both character and plot-based, rather than the writing/acting/directing of any individual episode. And they were under a lot of network pressure, and they'd lost a bunch of writers, and DK wouldn't let that one plot point go but nobody else knew what to deal with it, and apparently things were kind of a mess.

But I still hate the stupid episode with John in the box. I try to pretend that one doesn't exist.

"John Quixote"?

No, "Mental As Anything". BB wrote "John Quixote", and although it doesn't actually pay off later in the season, it's kind of awesome.

call me jacki; zuisa is an internet nick from ancient times =)

Dammit why can't I stay off websites that are going to be giving things away in shows I'm watching? I should know by now that looking for desktop wallpapers invariably leads to me clicking away at links and learning way more than I want to know.

Oh well!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Speaking of Farscape, everyone in this thread should watch tonight's Community.

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

I feel kind of ridiculous admitting this out loud, but...The Vampire Diaries really has become the only current tv show that i'm actively jonesing for every week. tonight's episode just keeps pushing things along nicely.

i'm absolutely loving the Tyler/Caroline friendship. yet another thing Julie and Kevin have changed from the books for the better.

also loved seeing Mason again. pretty was taken from us too soon.

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

I actually really loved it until the mini-series.

Dana and I are of one mind when it comes to the Torchwood mini-series. I think the whole thing was more sadistic than your average Saw movie and the character assassination was the worst part.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Have I mentioned that in my mental alternate universe, the sixth Doctor was played by Sean Connery?

I would love for that to show up in the Fringe Walternate universe.
