Most people is pretty quiet right about now. Me, I see a stiff -- one I didn't have to kill myself -- I just get, the urge to, you know, do stuff. Like work out, run around, maybe get some trim if there's a willin' woman about... not that I get flush from corpses or anything. I ain't crazy.

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.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Actually? All they have on Ollie is that he found the Arrow's hoodie and outfit and ran up the stairs with it. He could claim he was forced to do that under duress.

Welcome Evil John Barrowman.

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

Look at these costumes: [link]

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Actually? All they have on Ollie is that he found the Arrow's hoodie and outfit and ran up the stairs with it.

Yeah. That's pretty flimsy evidence to arrest someone for murder on.

Still, he might want to avoid stashing his stuff right on front of security cameras, though.

My main gripe with Revolution is not the acting, it's the setting.

What they are showing is not 15 years of decay, it's closer to 100, maybe even more.

It's also inconsistent. They travel by horse and wagon on dirt roads, and then they show a highway that looks like it was just paved and striped this year.

Also, many highways are built up from the original dirt tracks between cities, so unless the bridges were destroyed, use them.

A car that has just been sitting for 15 years will look a little oxidized, maybe have a few plants growing in the debris that has collected in the nooks and crannies, but not the rust-buckets they keep showing.

You know how people say hiring Ron Perlman for your monster movie saves on makeup costs? I present the Hoechlin: [link]

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Sadly they wax him down for the role, which makes no sense at all to me. Though the eyebrows and teeth also go toward helping the cause.

Fringe: Peter, what are you thinking? That certainly was a Walter-like move, wasn't it?

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

So... Peter is the first Observer. How does this possibly end well?

Like father like son.

Somehow Olivia and Walter will pull him back from the brink?
