'Objects In Space'


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.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Just watched this past week's Reaper. Did anyone else notice? The guy playing the storage room owner was Jeff Kober, aka Rack on Buffy.

Oh yeah, I liked his character too. (And he was on Supernatural last season.)

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

DW 4.06: Wow, that was an amazingly incoherent episode. I didn't recognize the writer's name (Stephen Greenhorn); anyone know if he's done any other episodes? I was unimpressed. But I liked Jenny quite a bit, and was glad (if supremely unsurprised) to see that she survived after all.

Interesting to read people's theories a few pages back about how the Doctor and Donna keep finding themselves deified and mythologized this season. What with the bit this episode with the Doctor inserting himself into the new planet's mythology, I'm starting to think there must be some point to all that.

That's who that was! I knew I knew him from somewhere, but my brain wouldn't place him.

ETA: IMDB says he was also in "Helpless". Was he the psychotic vamp in that episode?

Kate P. - Stephen Greenhorn wrote "The Lazarus Experiment" for last season.

Yes, Jeff Kober was the psychotic vampire in "Helpless."

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"

My favorite role of his is still Dodger from China Beach.

According to Ausiello, New Amsterdam has been cancelled.

All is well that ends in pizza.

I had a Doctor Who dream this morning.

Andi and I were running around with Doctor #10 in Nixon's White House.

I can't remember if the 18 minute gap in Nixon's tape was because of some important meeting with The Doctor, or because one of us played the album cut of "in-a-gadda-da-vida" in the Oval Office.

But he's giving Reaper a 90% chance of being picked up. (He being Ausiello.)
