Drusilla ,'Conversations with Dead People'


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 haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

Farscape! Due South! Sarah Connor!

call me jacki; zuisa is an internet nick from ancient times =)

I'm actually in the middle of Farscape and Doctor Who, I just put everything on hold due to incredible peer pressure from a friend to watch Fringe!

But I just accidently saw a spoiler and I REAAAAAALLLLY hope it's something that gets revealed in season two (or, at least, is something I could have inferred with brains and observation during season two) and isn't some main season three thing.

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

Farscape and Dr. Who are like relationship commitments. That's long-term engagement. If you need a break, Sarah Connor is pretty good and 2 seasons.

You need to get with Game of Thrones, but maybe you should start after the 2nd season. The first season is like 13 eps.

I have all of Game of Thrones downloaded, actually! I will get to it eventually. I also have the first novel, which I will also get to as soon as I finish the book I've been laboring though for months.

Doctor Who is DEFINITELY a long-term commitment. But I'm up through the first couple episodes of season four (Donna! She's hilarious) and as for Farscape I think the last episode I watched was 3x01.

At some point someone is going to stage an intervention with me and my excessive sci-fi/fantasy watching ways.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

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

Colin gets a great review on IO9 and I agree with them. He was in fine form yesterday. Exasperated comedy Colin is one of my favourite flavours.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

His physicality is just great. Aside from everything else!

I agree. "Somebody put her in front of a cartoon!"

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Yeah, this last episode was particularly enjoyable.
