I don't know about you guys, but I've had it with super-strong little women who aren't me.

Buffy ,'Get It Done'


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.

Was it Jon B. who called it about Jinx working undercover? Good call.

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

Oh thank GOD Jo is just leaving Eureka! I spent way too much of that ep thinking she was pregnant.

Aliens would be way cooler than Beverly.

Ha, ha! I had that fleeting thought, too, Jessica, but I just couldn't even. Aliens would be awesome, but I don't hold out a lot of hope.

How are people feeling about Alphas? I like a couple of the characters, but I just can't get excited about it.

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

I think that was my favourite season of Eureka.

I like Alphas. I find I skip right to it after Eureka and barely pay attention to W13. It's not great, or anything, but Gary sure is.

Yeah, he would be the character I enjoy. I did like the ep where he and the... strong dude teamed up. There were some hilarious and brilliant moments between them.

ETA: Most definitely my favorite season of Eureka.

Art Crawl!!!

I agree: favorite season of Eureka.

Gary annoys Bill so much he HAS to be doing on purpose, which I love. Gary's got issues, but he does seem to have a snarky sense of humor.

Colin must have a stunt double (I've never thought to ask), but he did say the singularity bomb stunt was ouchy.


JenP - Sep 19, 2011 6:51:26 pm PDT #18188 of 30001

I watched a video today with his stunt double falling out of -- well, a basket, but -- the car up in the air outside the bank. Aw, the goodbye scene with Jo is airing again.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

The poor Jeep falling out of the Singularity with its car alarm blaring was a beautiful grace note to that scene.

The whole episode had a snap to it that was so enjoyable, plus Bonus Taggart and Dave-Foley-character bitching at each other.

And how much did I enjoy Henry's aside that 'spaghettification' is a real term? That the writers/creators actually anticipated that we (and Carter) would think they'd have just made it up?

And, a strong cliff-hanger to keep us going till next season, which is all that I could want.

I really think that I'll keep this as my favorite season, but we have one more to go, and anticipate, so.
