On my seventh birthday, I wanted a toy fire truck, and I didn't get it, and you were real nice about it, and then the house next door burnt down, and then real firetrucks came, and for years I thought you set the fire for me. And if you did, you can tell me!

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.

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

Oh, holy crossovers!

That's super cool! I've been off the comic books for a while (spendy!), but I may have to find a local store again.

Art Crawl!!!

Bryan Fuller's Munsters remake not on the table due to difficulties in casting.

Not completely nixed though.

I'm guessing Brad Garrett wanted more money?

Holy Crap! Does that mean there is now bleedthrough to Peter's universe?

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

There's something.

I think Olivia's situation has more to do with Nina's tampering than with Mr. Jones' device.

I don't even know what this show is doing to me.

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

Frank,

I was always under the assumption, that the universe he is in is his "own." That he really didn't have anywhere to go back to.

I think his presence is bringing people's "memories" back.

I was startled when there was a suggestion on the show that he needed to "go back" somewhere. I never did think that's what happened to him.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

Holy Crap! Does that mean there is now bleedthrough to Peter's universe?

I'm gonna go out on a limb, and bet that there is no other universe, at least that we've seen. The two universes that we've seen before have been rewritten, rather than Peter now being in a third and occasionally fourth one. That being said, I can see why that might be a harder conclusion for Peter to come to leap to on the face of it. So Olivia really is remembering things. Whether that's because of exposed proximity to Peter, because of Nina's experiments or some combination of the above, however, is still up in the air.

Oh, yeah... I differentiate between timeline and universe. The amber timeline contains the red and blue universes in which both Peters died as children. So we're talking about bleedthrough to the original timeline in which the redverse Peter survived, but grew up in the blueverse. Ha.

So... if the timelines merge, is Olivia's step-father alive or dead?
