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.

Smart move, brenda.

'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"

Also on the "finale didn't happen" train. First season still is a shining example as to how to do a reboot, though.

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

Aww, come over here BSG finale. Sit next to me and I'll appreciate you for the glorious hot mess you were always destined to be.

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

You can watch the first hour of the finale! It's really awesome and things blow up! The second half is where things get sketchy.

Reliving the show through Mark Watches helped me appreciate it again. I think I've made my peace with it as a whole.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

I finally got caught on my DVR (just in time for everything to come back this week) and I agree that Ollie seemed to overreact quite a bit on finding out his mother was lying about Thea.

I would say, the way that scene was shot, that it was a stuntwoman working the salmon ladder for Sarah. The actress has some crazy abs, though.

I was amused by Felicity and Digg standing there watching her with the same head tilt, though.

Man, they need to find Digg something to do.

Was this the first time we didn't flash back to the island? I can't remember if with the episode that was showing the wheeling and dealings of the Undertaking had any island flashbacks, or if it was all set in Starling City.

I'm finding the lack of snark in the last few episodes of Almost Human disappointing (maybe they'll get back on track tonight.) I will say that while Detective Stahl comes across as generically pretty most of the time, she was stunning in that purple wig.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Anybody else watching Almost Human. I like the character interaction, and I think the world-building has been pretty good. The stories have been a tad generic week-to-week, but they serve both the characters and the environment.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I've really been enjoying it. I love the two main characters, and the secondary characters are pretty okay. And I always like to see John Larroquette.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

The twist at the end was pretty cheesy. But overall I enjoy it a lot.

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

I like it. I am intrigued by the wall and what Mr Larroquette has gotten himself into on the other side. I hope that in the future Lili Taylor will get to show more of her acting chops, presuming the show continues. I can't believe the season finale is next week.
