Just tryin' a little spicy talk.

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.

The Doctor knew way too much about everything that was going to happen. How did he know exactly when and where to place the holo-phone call? And he knew enough to try and get rid of Amy and Rory beforehand. It's almost as if he'd done it all before....

Also, and I'm assuming they'd already switched shoes by that point, but he didn't seem at all phased by Amy telling him about his death .

Nice one, whoever called the shoes, by the way.

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

Ah, CW. Gotta keep loving your VD promo pics.

Someone just accused me of being offensive and pigeonholing men because I described Damon and Stefan as raping and murdering. Am I missing something?

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

Clearly any time a man is accused of being a rapist or a murderer, that means you're accusing all men of being rapists and murderers.

Didn't you get the memo?

So I rewatched "The Impossible Astronaut" and "Day of the Moon" last night. I'd been meaning to anyway, and it seemed like a good time.

Things I noticed:

Whatever happens to Amy happens in the three month gap between the two episodes. Very early on in DotM she says that she's not pregnant any more, and then she sees Eye-Patch-Lady BEFORE she enters the little girl's room and is kidnapped by The Silence. Actually, my guess is that she is taken when they're fleeing the warehouse at the end of IA, because we were never really shown what happened there .

The Silent in the White House loo instructs Amy to tell the Doctor what he needs to know (the pregnancy) and what he must never know (that he dies/died) - and she finally did this in The Almost People .

The Doctor knows a whole lot more about everything than he is letting on. Well, no surprise there maybe. He also tries to get rid of Amy and Rory again at one point .

There was more, but that's all I can remember at the moment.

How much did Wonder Woman suck? I feel really bad for Palicki.
