'Underneath'


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.

Not up there with the "Doctor Hoo" t-shirt, but pretty nice.

Hmmm, I'm thinking that if I ever get a black cat I may have to call it "Nine".

I support this.

While I won't rant about the ridiculousness of a villain hanging, crawling and making his way back aboard a bullet train, because Angus McFayden (sp?) excellent, I do have to declaim on the absolute waste of Ben Browder, nice as it was to see him, in the latest Chuck.

On the other hand, Fringe just keeps on kicking it hardcore. I'm loving every twist. And really pray that the alter-Broyles is a shapeshifter because I couldn't bear him being a bad guy in any universe.

That has to be it! I hope.

He must be a shape-shifter. I am almost positive.

Indeed. Even though I saw his name in the credits, I didn't recognize him at all. He's... uhhh... filled out a bit. It wasn't until a few hours after I'd watched that I remembered I'd seen his name, put the pieces together, and figured out which character he must have been.

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

I thought he looked readily recognisable, and his torso was, ah, not filed out, I guess. but his face is quite a bit wider through the jaw. His voice is still crazy characteristic.

I just wish he'd had more to do. But there were a lot of threads in that episode.

The national anthem ita mentioned in Natter was a great moment.

To be fair, I haven't seen him in anything since Farscape.

He looked great in SG-1, but he trimmed down a lot--lost at least 20 lbs and was working out hard. I suspect he was grateful to ease up at least a bit on that when the show ended.

It just is bizarre to me that a guy who was the lead on two major sci-fi franchises got cast a henchman anywhere.
