This girl at school? She told me that gelatin is made from ground-up cow's feet and that every time you eat Jell-O there's some cow out there limping around without any feet. But I told her that I'm sure the cow is dead before they cut its feet off, right?

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 don't know that I'd be comfortable with the potty being that portable...

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

How could you resist the Doctor offering you "all of space and time to poop in"?

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

That sounds rather like the kind of fic I will not read.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Fringe producers have been teasing that Anna Torv would get to play a 3rd character. I did not anticipate how it would happen. That's a hilarious way to defer the next round of angst.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

Remember way back when Fringe started, and people were complaining that Anna Torv couldn't act?

Funny. No one says that anymore ...

All is well that ends in pizza.

Although I was kind of hoping it was going to be Jorge Garcia.

Me, too! I was disappointed he was only in one scene. Here's hoping he shows up again.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

HOLY SHIT RIGHT?!

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

I wonder if the same people I read bitching about dealing with souls on V will bitch about this storyline. Their objection was that souls don't belong in sci-fi, not as manipulable entities.

I don't see any reason they can't, all you need is to do it well. And Fringe is certainly better suited for that than V.

It occurs to me that I have an episode of V on my TiVo. I've missed the past few episodes. I can't decide if I want to bother looking. Still, it's going to be a long weekend.
