Willow ,'Empty Places'


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.

"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

I've heard some speculation that given the experiments on walkers that the Governor had Milton running, there might be plausible explanations he could offer for the Marie Antoinette Aquarium. However, I think any normal person seeing that room would immediately jump to the conclusion of "crazed serial killer."

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

I can't reply to this. I feel like a shit sister:

The black people have lines!! I guess this is their quota for the season. I'm trying to enjoy it without thinking about that.

[ep 4]

T-Dogg even has a perspective on shit that he's like arguing and stuff! And Michonne somehow won't be killed after pretty much showing she's hip to the Govnuh?!

At least there's Tyrese, but she is going to blow a couple gaskets before she gets that far.

call me jacki; zuisa is an internet nick from ancient times =)

I've begun my Great Television Catch-Up 2012, and today I marathoned the five episodes so far of Doctor Who S7 and excuse me while I go weep in the corner for a little while.

Also, I only skimmed your TWD discussion above but I am very excited to start S3.

'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"

You should be, zuisa -- this first half of S3 has a lot to recommend it, particularly the pacing. (Survival of men of color, not so much.)

Should I wander away and come back when someone can tell me the high school student isn't viscerally unbreakable-without-torment enslaved to the murdering rapist guy?

I don't care if he knows or not, HOW IS THAT NOT CREEPY?

(And, seriously--Stefan (I have only now realised my mnemonic is that they share initials and birth order with the other brothers) seems to have missed the guilt boat, and that's why he's so popular...why can't Jeremy just kill them all...maybe now he'll have a pang?)

Art Crawl!!!

Apparently the sire bond in vampires only happens if the original human had feelings for the vamp who turned him/her.

Are you saying you want to know if Damian does the right thing and leaves? Or tells Elena to spurn him?

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

I'm not sure how they're supposed to break the bond and keep the cast together, and since the cast is staying together, something slightly different has got to happen.

Why has it happened twice to Damon and apparently so rarely to anyone else? No one in the recent history of ever turned someone with feelings for them? I don't remember the Catherine timeline, but how does that not qualify with at least one of them?

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

Can someone tell me what happened in the last few seconds of Haven last night? My DVR cut out just as the psychiatrist (who I think Audrey figured out was the bolt gun killer) said "hush".

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

Drew the bolt gun and said something on the lines of "How did you figure it out?" So Audrey is now being held at bolt-gunpoint.

Thanks Typo Boy! I figured it was something like that.
