This girl at school? She told me that gelatin is made from ground-up cow's feet and that every time you eat Jell-O there's some cow out there limping around without any feet. But I told her that I'm sure the cow is dead before they cut its feet off, right?

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.

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

Strix,

I agree with you.

They have changed events with the governor enough from the graphic novels that I wonder where they are going.

I have some predictions (am not spoiled for the tv series). I hope I am wrong.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Yeah, I only just finished Volume 6, but I'm curious where they're going with the Governor and Woodbury and how much they plan to deviate from the comic. I did like the way they introduced him, though. It was to the point where I thought maybe they'd completely changed his character or something and made him a good guy.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

My ex called me tonight specifically to tell me that Michonne made him think of me, because he thought I would totally have done that pack-animal thing with the zombies. I was quite flattered.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

:AmNotBuyingCompemdiumIWillRemainPure:

It's SO hard not too, though!

And New Pleasantville - aside from the "Oh, I find floating zombies heads quite relaxing, like beta fish" murdery leader - has a definite rapeville vibe coming off quite a few of the "soldiers" to me.

I mean, we saw Michonne being asked if she wanted to be a soldier on the preview, but other than that...I didn't see women on the wall. And all the women I saw were wearing dresses.

I dunno.

You should borrow it from your neighbor, like me!

But see, I'm trying to REMAIN PURE.

Something which hasn't happened to me a lot, so support me, dammit!

(But I am so tempted...)

Strix, I'm your pure companion (like a sober companion, only in regard to the comic books). One day at a time.

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

So you guys heard that a couple years ago Colton Haynes went as Kanye for Halloween, full blackface? And there was a bit of retroactive fuss, but mostly the bits of TW fandom I see like to pretend it's all love and cuddles.

This year? He dressed as Gandhi, I hear.
