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.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

As much as I love both Amy and River, I kind of agree, Nora.

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

What are the other lady tropes that bother you?

Hayden: For those of us watching Airbender along with you, how many episodes are you recapping each week?

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

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

tiggy, that might be the only example where it didn't grate to high heaven. I'm on Rayne's side.

Yeah, but it took two Ben Browders to break the suckitude of the trope! That's setting the bar pretty high!

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

That's true. I only watched about 5-6 episodes of Farscape.

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

No love for the Buffybot? (Note - I am three seasons behind on Who, so really have no stake in this whatsoever.)

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.

Mmmm... Ben Browder. Can bring the clones and the bugnuts crazy anytime.

I think I only really liked it in the Season 6 opener.
