You're wrong about River. River's not on the ship. They didn't want her here, but she couldn't make herself leave. So she melted... Melted away. They didn't know she could do that, but she did.

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.

Man, I'm reading Teen Wolf meta about paralyzed Derek and Stiles, and the amount of "canon for our ship!" is pretty funny.

I so hope that's never me about anything.

I assume they already knew about this scene when filming that Teen Choice Awards plea?

Did you see subtext in that scene? I just saw two paralysed guys, and a nutbag saying weird things.

There is a lot of chemistry between the two actors, is that enough for there to be subtext?

I don't see them playing to it in their acting, and I don't see the script playing to it either--there's no Angel-like eyefucking, for instance.

I feel weird, being on the outside of the HoYay. Well, at least I have an episode of White Collar waiting on my TiVo for when I get home. I'm always on the inside of that bromance.

I agree with you on the latter but not the former.

Can you give me some examples, then? I feel Stiles flirts more with Danny than with Derek.

I think it is mostly the way they look at each other in scenes together, and they always seem to be having fun when they work together. Like I said, I just think they have a lot of chemistry.

That was C. Thomas Howell on Alphas as speed guy? Whoa, he looks seriously old now.
