We killed a homeless man on this bench. Me and Dru. Those were good times. You know, he begged for mercy, and you know, that only made her bite harder.

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.

Vagenda was hilarious. What were the credits? I missed.

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

The mixed blue and red?

it's a new way of describing a femme fatale - and her agenda.

if you will.

The mixed blue and red?

Someone on the Internet joked that they wanted purple credits this time. Blue and red will do.

Have they had different credits for the different universes all along? I watch online and don't usually stick around. Now i have to check it out of course.

Yeah, the regular credits are blue, and the alternate credits are red. It's fun. (Also, the alternate credits have different fringe sciences.)

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix

Which one was that (whitefont for zuisa if need be)?

the baby, of course. DK and BB were totally on board, the rest of the writers didn't know what to do with it and so they just didn't deal with it for months on end. But it ended up turning Aeryn from someone with her own story into Aeryn-the-Mommy, which didn't sit well with a lot of fans. Well, ME, anyway.

As for Fringe, Pacey just doesn't do it for me as an actiony leading man. But it doesn't make a big difference here: I watch for Olivia and the HSQ, not the Great Love Story of Olivia and Peter.

Now, if they brought John Scott back... (Yeah, I know: never gonna happen)

Speaking of which, did we ever find out John's story? He wasn't a shapeshifter but he was dodgy: was he on Walternate's payroll?

I might have to rewatch the pilot.

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

Oh yeah, that definitely was a drag on the season. That was another thing that I thought they redeemed with Peacekeeper Wars (especially the canonical mpreg) , but I'm not sure enough to justify what it did to season 4.
