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.

Wachowskis are making a Sci-Fi series for Netflix:

EW YORK (AP) — Netflix's newest original series will be science-fiction from the duo behind the "The Matrix" trilogy.

Netflix announced Wednesday that it will stream "Sense8" late next year for subscribers. The series is the first foray into television for Andy and Lana Wachowski, the filmmaking siblings who directed "The Matrix" and last year's "Cloud Atlas."

Netflix called the 10-episode series "a gripping global tale of minds linked and souls hunted." The show runner will be J. Michael Straczynski, creator of "Babylon 5," which aired for five seasons in the 1990s.

Netflix made its biggest splash with an original series last month with the debut of the political thriller "House of Cards," starring Kevin Spacey. This spring, it will premiere the horror series "Hemlock Grove" and the reborn comedy "Arrested Development."

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Color me suspicious. JMS has, well, something of an ego issue. I can't see this collaberation working very well.

My living room has too much light in the afternoons for watching The Vikings. All I can see are torches and noses.

Hmm, so the Vikings is fun? (Are fun? - whatever.) I might have to see if it's On Demand. . . on some weekend when I'm not moving.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Lost Girl was fun tonight

That was a pretty good one, right? The breakup, and then Lauren and Dyson at the bar, were both more touching than I would have guessed.

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

The bits around the plot were cool, but the emo gully suit bad guy and the 21 Jump Street plot that's basically a retread of their retread of Reptile Boy--those undercover dynamics irritate the living fuck out of me. I'm glad they tossed them aside so quickly, but while that makes the episode more watchable for me, I don't think it's good storytelling.

I did try really hard to believe Lauren's stated reasons for breaking up with Bo. Real hard. Is "you're hurting me" a bad thing to say out loud in those circumstances? As well as "I know you're not going to stop...you can't stop. Even though you really do want to. That's just part of you."?
