Giles, help! He's going to scold me!

Buffy ,'Never Leave Me'


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.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

He was demoted and was working on small stuff in the corridor. He was just staring at stuff in the launch bay. I think if he was fooling with stuff he wouldn't have been allowed in there.

Also, if he wasn't on Galactica, he couldn't have all those scenes with Baltar.

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

When was that, tiggy? I don't recall it.

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

That was hilarious, tiggy.

Oh, that's fucking wrong!

If that was wrong, I don't want to be right.

you know, every year there are major cast changes i go into the season incredibly wary and every time i'm really pleasantly surprised. i suppose i need to stop being wary.

which is my way of saying, i'm really enjoying Donna this season.

I missed that too, tiggy, thanks for pointing it out! But then, I was going to rewatch both episodes together anyway.

I thought it was a good and enjoyable double bill, though nothing extraordinary (cf. "Human Nature" etc.). Nice bit of tension with Donna in the Sontaran ship. Did anyone else catch the brief flash of Rose shouting "Doctor" on the Tardis screen when Donna was changing the channel? I like the way they're building this one up, nice and slowly .

'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"

Uh oh. I went and read the white font! Curse you, sleep-addled brain!

Not that it probably gives away all that much, but I have no-one to blame but myself.

Have I mentioned lately how much CKR rocks as Leoben?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

So, BSG was pretty slow, but I mostly didn't mind. I actually really like the pace of this season so far.

Craxy!Starbuck is getting a bit tiresome. Serene!Baltar is increasingly creeptastic. I hated the relationship between him and Tori when it started, but I'm warming to it more and more. The power dynamic is just really interesting there.

I loved Tyrol (can't call him the Chief anymore! waaah!) last week - this week seemed a little off. Too much bug-eyed angst, not enough anything else.

And - no Adama, no Roslin, no Six. I wonder what they're saving the $$ for?
