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.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

I think it's sucking more.

Hah. Is that even possible?

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

BSG: It's still a little eyerolly for me, but it may be mostly the messianic stuff, other than the whole Dylan thing. And I must be missing the magic on the big battle scene, or not paying enough attention, because it was mostly just sparkly to me.

That said, I like the enduring complexity of the characters. I like that their relationships morph and change. I like the constant callbacks to the things that shape them.

And I like Anders.

Too bad about the whole Cylon thing he's got going. Speaking of, why in the name of all that's shiny don't they present themselves to Adama and get themselves locked up, if they think they're such a threat? If they really wanted to be the people they think they are, the best thing they could do was fess up and lock themselves away where they're no longer being privy to the information and positions they've been placed in and they'd be unable to cause damage.

Not too sure about the whole going the wrong way thing, but I hope we don't have to hear about it too long. I have this thing about where I get cranky with what they do with Kara. I like her as a hardass and I dunno if I can handle her all Cassandra.

Baltar's life seems to involve a lot more curtained low beds with elaborate bedding than most people's. That's really about all that I have to say about that.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

OH! But I got my sex scene! So I'm happy now. What else should I ask for with my amazing television manipulating powers?

Hee! It was so hard not to say anything a couple of weeks ago when you were talking about it.

What occurred to me as Baltar's crazed groupies were leading him off to (paraphrasing) "an unused compartment that we found" was that this is a ship that has been bursting at the seams with people, and they've been using every spare inch of space and utilizing every resource. So these people just managed to find this huge area hanging about, suitable for Baltar-worship?

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."

Yes, and that food supply everyone forgot about, and some spare water, and they've hacked into the unsecured wireless O2 supply of their neighbors.

You must allocate those fleet resources carefully! There's a Baltar Altar to light, you know!! (Although, how funny is it that it's made out of Christmast lights that don't blink in sequence? Maybe they'll drive Baltar mad before the end.)

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

BSG 401:

What I can't figure is this argument that the 4 new Cylons "always were Cylons". Because if that's true, how did they manage to not get blowed up in the original attack, and survive long enough to get themselves placed on Galactica? I can almost handwave that one by saying that there were multiple copies of each of them, and they're each sufficiently stronger/smarter/whatever better than ordinary humans that they'd (a) have a good chance of surviving and (b) end up in positions of some authority.

Except... then there's Tigh. Tigh's gotta be in his sixties. And the last Cylon war ended, what, 42 years ago? Tigh was already in the military when the Cylon war ended, and there weren't any human-form Cylons then.

So... Tigh can't always have been a Cylon. He's a changeling--but the other's aren't? I'm so confused.
