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.

Laura was an alpha. He killed her for that.

I'm assuming her revealed himself to Derek to assemble his pack, since that seems to be a raison d'etre for all the wolves other than Scott, and that's because he has a non-wolf pack.

Man, my heart breaks for Stiles. Like, Scott is broken up, but he's not *sad*. Allison does have a lot to mourn, and she also has her own actions to process, don't get me wrong. But just seeing Stiles with hope go to Stiles "how can I even feel bad that Jackson's alive?" with no hope--poor thing. Where's the "You're a hero, Stiles Stilinski!" petition? I'd like to sign it.

Okay, the fuck--clothes while they shapeshift? Only Jackson seems to have an issue, and I'm not sure if his is consistent.

The beta forms don't seem to change enough to mess with clothing aside from gloves - it's just claws and facial features. Only Peter Hale's full alpha transformations and Jackson turning into the kanima leave the concerned parties naked.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I called Allison's dad having to help Scott fight his father by the end of the season, somewhere upthread.

Poor Stiles. But how awesome was Stiles's dad?

It was the "someone certainly enjoys making an entrance" line that made me say it. Derek was running on all fours, and his clothes were not the same shape as what he was wearing after the flip and return to Tyler-face.

But how awesome was Stiles's dad?

He is amazing. I'd watch the spinoff. It wouldn't even have to have monsters in it. I'd still watch.

Remember that scene in S1 where Stiles gets him drunk to get info out of him? And then promptly feels like shit and then his dad mentions his mother and Sti;es stops him from reaching for another, and then his dad thanks him?

'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"

Another thing to love about TW: the parents get to be cool people in their own right.

God, Scott's mother. Jesus.

The morgue scene cracked me up with Scott yelling at his mom to zip the bodybag. Dude, Jackson's ripped off car doors and thrown you through a porcelain sink; I don't think a plastic bag is going to keep everyone safe from him.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here

I am now watching Season 2 of Teen Wolf, and they have new credits. Is the first picture of Stiles poking Scott in the butt with a lacrosse stick?

These Teen Wolf guys are flush with the newness of it all, plus Dylan is either on drugs or...no, I'm gonna go with drugs, because that amuses me, and it's not a court of law or a publication at risk of libel suits: [link]

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

So I've been marathoning Pushing Daisies, and the big standout for me is 1) Kristen Chenoweth is AWESOME and the crap she took was hysterical and demeaning and she took it like a champ. Have some mud thrown on your face, let the dog slip you some tongue, etc.. And 2) Olive Snook is AWESOME and the star of the show. Forget Ned and Chuck and their treacle romance. Olive is where it's at. Olive's UST and URT is a full-fledged thing of beauty, in that she is the third wheel, yet has such a rich individual life and her one-sided romance doesn't come off as in service to the main romance, but almost something greater than it.
