'Bushwhacked'


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.

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

I would *love* an Indian Doctor.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

I am actually disappointed that Jason Statham was not named. I know it is ridiculous but it was so ridiculous that I started imagining it with details. If I had a lick of creative talent (and time), I'd start writing fan fiction about it.

Due to selective parsing and possibly side effects of, you know, medication, Le Nub is now starting writing Time Lord Statham fic. Y'all can thank me later.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

Not familiar with Peter Capaldi, but willing to give him a shot.

As for Patterson Joseph, he's got another gig- Law and Order UK.(I didn't realize they started it up again until a friend tipped me off to BBC America starting to air new eps this week)

"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 would *love* an Indian Doctor.

Joanna Lumley would have been the perfect choice to please us both, then.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

Malcolm Tucker as the new Doctor! I'm hoping Capaldi would keep his Scottish accent. For those who haven't watched Thick of It / In the Loop, here's a gloriously profanity-filled reminder: [link]

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

Well, he's been a couple of Who-verse shows, so he's a known quantity to the production. I thought he was good in both the Pompii adventure and CoM.

I'm not sure about keeping the Scot accent though. It's pretty hard to understand a Scot when he's not making an effort to be understood by the rest of us.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

So, I'm finally catching up on the last two episodes of Arrow, and I want to hit Ollie with the heavy stick of Stop-Being-Stupid.

I'm not sure about keeping the Scot accent though. It's pretty hard to understand a Scot when he's not making an effort to be understood by the rest of us.

I suspect it's somewhat less hard for those in the UK, and I hope he keeps it.

(I don't have any issues with it, but see also, grandparents from.)

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I can usually parse Scot-speak after about 2-3 sentences, but I'm better at that sort of thing than most Americans.
