I know I'm a bad poet, but I'm a good man. All I ask is that... is that you try to see me—

William ,'Conversations with Dead People'


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.

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

Like I said, I didn't read her post, but I don't know why she'd be baggin' on Oliver for keeping secrets from Thea and Quentin NOW when this has been going on for the entire season. Sounds like trying to find nits to pick.

finally calling out Laurel on her whiny, everything happens to me-me-me shtick.

Yeah, I found that super-satisfying. I feel like Laurel's about-face was a bit too abrupt though. Ah well. The rest of the show is moving at a sonic speed -- it's high time Laurel caught up to its speed instead of dragging it down, I guess.

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

All is well that ends in pizza.

If Oliver liquidates 800,000 shares, doesn’t Isabel buy them?

Okay, she has a point.

I wondered that, too. But I'm ridiculously willing to handwave certain shit.

I just assumed the unspoken was they would set up a straw buyer so they wouldn't lose control of the voting stock.

Plus? It's all done electronically. Who gets cash for shares, and where?

If I sell shares, the proceeds show up as cash in my account.

Yes, but it's not literal cash, it's in your account.

If he sold 800,000 shares, assuming even as little as $10/share, that's $8 Million. Hardly a sum to be quickly converted to folding money to physically steal.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I watched the ep on the plane. Oh my god, this show. Three half naked people hitting each other with sticks. I love it.

ION, we watched the finale of S1 of Orphan Black tonight. I'd forgotten all the shit that goes down in that show, in only ten episodes. It's insane.

Cannot wait for Season 1! Bring on the Proclone! I want more clones!

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.

Arrow: hope Felicity does not get hooked on "aspirin". Cause that would be a very uninteresting plot twist.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Yeah, no. They already went to that well once. Badly.
