'Beneath You'


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 wonder how I saw it, because I've never had HBO in my life.

Huh. But does look like fun too. Did you have a friend with HBO that taped it for you?

No, I remember sitting with Hubby watching it. Twice. We did have cable, but only ever basic. I wonder if it was a free weekend or something.

Wasn't there a screen shot of the US map from the Alternate Universe? Does anyone remember that?

wow...US Being Human is totally pointless. why don't they just buy the rights to the originals?

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

US Being Human is totally pointless

How can you be sure? They've made enough choices so far that I wonder how they're going to plot out so many more episodes.

why don't they just buy the rights to the originals?

Someone else already has them.

choices? what choices? it was pretty much a rehash of the original. sister and superfluous name changes aside.

okay, but many shows are run on different networks. like Sex and the City for instance. originally shown on HBO. rights were bought and it airs on TBS and i've also seen it being re-run late at night on my ABC affiliate.
