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.

Remember that habit Ben Browder used to have of ambush-macking on Michael Shanks at conventions? I believe he may have been receiving some encouragement to do so: [link]

That's hilarious.

Hey, did someone post a link from i09 in here for the pilot of Precinct 17 (or whatever it was called -- the Ron Moore thing). I happened to spy it in the right hand column when I was reading something else over there. It was interesting. I'd have watched! But, then, I'm not really a hard sell on that sort of thing.

Oh, OK, from Amy's post in Natter, that links to an article with a link to the 17th precinct unaired pilot, I guess it was just a recent thing. And the hospital is either not letting me link to it, or it's gone already.

It's gone.

Darn it.

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

Don't tell anyone, but Precinct 17: [link]

ita !=magic! How appropriate, given the subject.

Ha! "And now my interstellar death-ray will probably be used as an instrument of war."

When I saw the blurb about Tesla's work being weaponized, my immediate thought was "The peace-loving genius who allegedly invented a death-ray for the US government and caused an earthquake in Manhattan in 1898? How dare they pervert the intent of his work like that!" Glad to see the show hung a lampshade on the irony.

OMG. That was good. Thank you, ita.

I wish we were going to see more of that show.

Chuck: so excited to have Tim DeKay on the show. Too bad that Matthew Bomer wasn't in this episode too.
