'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.

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

BBCA is airing The Day of the Doctor live. Does anyone have any clues if they will be inserting commercials?

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I'll ask around.

From the channel guys:

"The global simulcast at 2:50pm ET on BBC America will be a true simulcast without ad breaks, all over the world and in the U.S.

It will be encored on BBC America at 7pm ET with exclusive inside look interviews with Matt Smith & David Tennant in the commercial breaks."

Cool, thanks!

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

Arrow:

Seth Gabel! I wish they hadn't killed him off. He was a great recurring villian.

Moira, willing to risk the death penalty over the affair seemed lame, unless she was worried the DA would actually reveal the paternity thing?

Malcolm! Called it. Felicity continues to be the best reason to watch the show, but I wish she wouldn't get herself into dangerous situations that she can't get out of. I'd love it if Oliver taught her some defense moves.

Malcolm! Called it.

I didn't expect him to come back, but I wasn't surprised, if that makes sense.

Yeah, the damsel in distress thing is getting a little old, especially contrasted with Shado and Sarah.

The preview for the next episode made me squee in delight. Barry Allen WHAT!!! (And the text over the preview -- "Everything changes...in a FLASH" -- Tim said, "Do they think they're sneaky, or clever?")

The way it was filmed was very open ended. I figured he had a back up plan of someone coming to rescue him if he was wounded.

Did you know it's a spin off?

They're spinning off the Flash into his own show? Intriguing.

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

Is Flash supposed to be that young? He looks like a Jonas brother.
