'Dirty Girls'


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 assume a TARDIS corset is relevant to our interests?

Ha! I ADORE Body Switch Comedy, so I'm glad Eureka got that ticked off its Bucket List!

Points to "Zach" for the best Sheriff Carter impression.

So stick your electronics inside an old Microwave oven...or a lot of them.

I wonder if washers and dryers would work, if you insulated the electronics from the metal.

I'm sure a lead-lined refrigerator would work, too. I hear those things can withstand nuclear bombs!

BTW, I want to give a delighted shoutout to the title of the episode, because "Jack of All Trades" is such a wonderful meta-pun.

OUAT: The one character we have not yet seen in our world is Rumplestiltskin's son. I wonder if he was the guy who impregnated and abandoned Emma? It is the kind of twist this show likes. BTW, does this OUAT qualify as a soap?

I think someone mentioned that possibility upthread. And, yes, I would say OUAT is definitely a soap.

If the speculation is true, that would make Regina's son the grandson of three of her chief "enemies", which would serve her right.

I used the buffista search function to search for Rumpelstiltskin, several variations and Gold and did not find anyone suggesting that Emma was impregnated by Rumpelstiltskin's son. I may have missed a post because the search function does not find partial word matches. ("Rump" does not find "Rumpel" or "Rumpelstiltskin". ) But anyway if someone got there first, on this board, all due credit to them. At any rate I'm sure it occurred to someone before it did to me, whether it was on the Buffista Board or not.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Thanks! Quester got there as soon as she knew that R's son was in our world.
