I know, world in peril and we have to work together. This is my last office romance, I'll tell you that.

Buffy ,'End of Days'


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.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Do we know that Sam Neil isn't one of the 63s?

Thrive to spite them

Yes, that was in the first episode.

He was the young guard that came over on the boat to start the transfer.

I think it was supposed to be his first trip to the Rock, which means he wouldn't have encountered Dr. Beaugruard in person, but there should have been information about him in the files and records.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

I had to rewatch the bit where he shot the Terrier, because I couldn't work out if this was a Han-Greedo scenario

Me too. The Terrier had definitely grabbed his gun.

'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"

I thought I recognized the guy!

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

I was like "Fuck, was he seriously that proactively badassed?" but on rewatch he was reacting to a clear and visible threat, although he was definitely primed for it.

As well he should have been! Those guys were cree-pee.

Also, what kind of accent did large-non-Terrier-guy have? He didn't talk enough for me to pick it up.

I figured Rick was channelling his inner Raylan.

I loved how Terrier talked around his issue of "No, where are you? We're moving in. Srsly." He was so gross.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

So Alcatraz, we have our answer about if Houser knew Lucy back when, and I think maybe we have our answer about the Doctor as well.

I hate not having tv, I have to wait a whole day to watch stuff.

Did he know?
