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.

Does he have clean underwear? Shouldn't we have a scene of his trying to figure out modern underwear?

The ponytail or queue is much more period appropriate than the scenes with his hair loose.

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

He had to have the costumer sew in rigid bits along the shoulders and spine, at least for a while.

Aha! Mison can be pretty slouchy in out-of-costume interviews.

Try Handwavium Bank's new interest-free checking!

I think there's a flaw in your plan.

I can hear the saxes in the soundtrack now.

Oh, hey, so much music would be new to him. Saxaphones were invented later. The whole Romantic period, jazz, blues, rock, not to mention the "always on" aspect of modern music. Press a button and instant orchestra in your horseless carriage.

The series seems perfect for fanfic, because there's a ton of "out of time" things that they'll never have a chance to address.

I'd like to see Ichabod dance. The waltz was still scandalous then--if it even existed yet (too lazy to research dance history).

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

Waltz was invented and quite popular amongst the scandalous in Vienna. It's more likely Crane knows the minuet and English country dances.

Ooh, the minuet! Such a fun dance. I would love to see Abby see him in his version of finery.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Perhaps Ichabod's army pay has been accumulating over the years ... that should amount to a nice sum. But, as suggested, I think the Bank of Handwavium's funding him.

I hope it's the Freemasons and maybe the Elders of Zion thrown in together.
