Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

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 just wandered over to Television Without Pity, and the recaps for Once Upon A Time are really good (well, for the latest episode it's still a recaplet.

Of course they're really good. It's our own Cindy writing them.

All is well that ends in pizza.

The curse was supposed to transport everyone, but Rumplestiltskin said something to her about it would leave her with a void she could not fill, I think.. So she adopted Henry.

I think it's all "be careful what you wish for" in this case.

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

I maintain anyone who orders the murder of another person and seeks to eat that person's heart is going to be a miserable bitch in any dimension.

That person cannot be fixed.

Yup, Sark is the Big Bad Wolf.

They're taking inspiration from Tex Avery?

Ha! Apparently so

LeN exactly.

Question: Rumpelstiltskin remembers everything, correct? That's how he knows to use "please" to get Regina to do what he wants. Or does she remember too? That's the only thing I don't exactly get.

Is her first name Snow and her last name White?

IIRC her name is Princess Snow White (no last name) because the Queen wished for a daughter with skin as white as snow, lips as red as blood, and hair as dark as ebony. Or something like that. Now I feel like I need to see who has my grandmother's copy of the Grimm fairy tales. Probably my aunt...hummm...
