'Out Of Gas'


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 admit--I stopped watching TVD, but since I caught the last two episodes of the past season, I thought I could make sense of a recap of the season opener, and no...pretty impressive stuff. I mean, I think my eyes were open for the finale, but I seem to have retained little other than Bonnie's death. Which...yeah.

'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"

Oy, I watched The Originals pilot. That was 50 or so minutes of my time that I wasn't using anyway, but now I feel slightly ashamed.

Please tell me there were white witches, at least!

Yes, there were. There was even a prominent black vampire (who seems to be the Main Antagonist).

At least the creators of this show seem to admit that there are black people in New Orleans.

Even if that doesn't make much of a difference on the parent show, I am glad the coincidence didn't last.

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

The BBC mostly confirms that lost Dr. Who episodes have been recovered: [link]

Ann, that's a ferret.

If OUaT gives me a Cowboy Neal at the wheel of a bus to Neverland scenario I will be a happy camper.

I could deal. On the other hand, I thought Emma was denying that she was Snow and Charming's heir -- in other words, a princess.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Did I miss anything important in the 1st 15 minutes of Sleepy Hollow? I was trying to make my tv work.

There was Crane's heartfelt speech about his love for Katrina that made the OnStar woman weep. And he thanked her kindly for listening to him, unlocking the car, and telling him how the entertainment system worked.

Which, read like that, sounds like a joke, but isn't.

Oh, and Abbie convinced her Captain to give her a 12-hour head start to finding her sister, and Jenny went to a bar to get her stashed Sarah-Connor gear back.
