Don't you just love this party? Everything's so fancy, and there's some kind of hot cheese over there.

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

I would give eye teeth to have a 13-episode wrap-up miniseries for Sarah Connor Chronicles instead.

THIS. The series finale ended on such an intriguing note. I really wanted to know how the writer were going to handle that.

Good luck getting the entire cast back for Sarah Connor --harder than for Heroes, even. (Altho the Heroes reboot will be all-new cast & characters.)

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Here's better news: Farscape movie in the works! It's based on the comics post-PW, which I have not read. Also, I assume this is a TV movie.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

With more and more popular shows getting a reboot/movie/whatever, doesn't it seem like it's only a matter of time before Firefly gets some kind of re-something?

Oh god, Facebook would collapse under the weight of the resulting memes, wouldn't it? I mean, really. The Sherlock memes would be but a faint, charming memory.

A new Farscape movie really only works for me if Ben and Claudia and Ricky Manning are involved. Well, okay, and they need Lani Tupu to voice Pilot.

But Jonathan Hardy is dead, so what would they do for Rygel?

I don't want Farscape: the Next Generation. I want the continuing adventures of John and Aeryn and their pals.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Aside from BSG, what TV reboots have been that successful? Ironside, Bionic Woman, Knight Rider, Sarah Conner (not quite a reboot and a great show, but not really a success)...I guess the new Dallas is still going.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I would consider the Treks as reboots. Hawaii 5-0.

I'm going to entirely ignore comic book superheroes.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

So I guess it's worth throwing stuff at the wall to see what sticks, because it's just as likely to succeed as any other random show. But still, Heroes?

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

Ironside is a success? Sight. Awful, awful show from the half an episode I watched before turning it off as an alternative to throwing something at the screen. And the original Ironside was not bad.
