Simon: I'm trying to put this as delicately as I can... How do I know you won't kill me in my sleep? Mal: You don't know me, son. So let me explain this to you once: If I ever kill you, you'll be awake, you'll be facing me, and you'll be armed.

'Serenity'


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.

"...and then Legolas and the Hulk destroy the entire Greek army." - Penny Arcade

If this is a hoax, it's a seriously elaborate one, so you decide: Nine Second Doctor episodes reported found. Scroll down to the update from Lance Parkin for the details.

ASSUMING this is true, we now have the complete Enemy Of the World serial(Troughton playing the title villain as well as the Doctor) and all but one of the Web Of Fear serial(Yeti in the Underground, first Lethbridge-Stewart). So hopefully DVD releases for both of those soon.

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

Is that a confirmation of Tom Scola "Boxed Set, Vol. V: Just a Hint of Denial and a Dash of Retcon" Oct 6, 2013 12:53:57 pm PDT or even more shenanigans?

ita ! I think it's confirmation, since the top of the article seems to reference that story.

And personally, I think 9 episodes is a more likely find than the 100+ someone claimed earlier this year.

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

I did not like Tomorrow People. Let me know if the show gets better.

Joining le nubian on the 'let me know' bench.

Maybe it's just because I was expecting Tomorrow People to be awful, and it wasn't as bad as that. Although, I do agree that the lead looks way to old to be a teenager.

However, I am watching Once Upon a Time in Wonderland right now, which I was expecting to be really good, and, so far, I am not impressed.

where does Arrow film (I'm assuming Blue Bloods is in the city)?

Tom Selleck was on Letterman recently and said Blue Bloods films in New York.

Because books.

sj, are you talking about the original Once Upon a Time, or the new Wonderland?

Amy, Wonderland. Sorry, I edited for clarity. That's what happens when I type while watching TV.

I watched the first maybe fifteen minutes, and I didn't like it -- it seemed a little too hysterically surreal.

Really? I was hoping for more surreal, but I'm finding it mostly dull.

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

Was that a silent Black Canary for reasons, or us not hearing a familiar voice?

Kate Beaton is on it.
