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.

On Arrow?
Yep. I also liked the throwaway line Laurel said about looking silly in fishnets.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger
I've seen Helsings and Van Helsings in vampire fictions (god, don't ask me where in fiction), but even in a lot of urban fantasy, there's a LOT of H(h)unters or S(s)layers.
Which OT1H, annoys me, but OTOH, unless you have a NAME for your supernatural slaying society as an author, the synomyms are...not great:
hunter: chaser, huntsman, pursuant, pursuer, sportsman, stalker, trapper, assassin, butcher, cut-throat, executioner, exterminator, gunman/woman, gunperson, hit person, hit-man/woman, slayer, soldier
slayer: assassin, butcher, criminal, cutthroat, enforcer, executioner, hit person, hit-and-run, homicide, killer, manslaughterer, manslayer, massacrer, murderess, perpetrator, slaughterer, soldier, trigger person, triggerman
Although a few would work, and I am pretty convulsed with laughter with Dean and Same being the "Massacre-ers," it's just so awkward to say!
And Anita Blake ruined "The Executioner" IMHO fiction-wise. BLEARGH.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine
Yep. I also liked the throwaway line Laurel said about looking silly in fishnets.
Yeah, that made me laugh.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"
Has anyone watched the new "Beauty and the Beast" (sorry if it's been discussed ... I skipped a lotta posts)? I watched the first episode where what's her name's mother gets killed and all I could think was "Lana's parents ... still dead".

Compassionately intolerant
I watched the first episode and then watched the original series via hulu.
I won't be going back to the reboot. Patooy.

Thrive to spite them
Just to throw this out Gods and Monsters is a really good movie and I highly recommend it. Stars Iam McKellan and Brendan Fraser.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty
Todd, there's still a few of us watching (maybe just me?), but I DVR and make liberal use of FF. Haven't actually programmed the series into the DVR, but every week (at least every week it doesn't conflict with 2 other shows), I find myself going, "Eh. What the hell," and telling the DVR to catch it.
"Lana's parents ... still dead".
Suh-nerk!
