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.

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

even the conversation later with Sarah and Cosima with the hand contact, etc

...That totally did not ping me as a thing that should not have been possible because of course they were played by two different actresses.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I was also half expecting the male clone to turn around and be a Felix, I have to admit.

Totes.

Introducing Helena to the rest of the Clone Club totally had my allergies going.

Cosima hasn't gotten out of bed yet, so I can see her not tracking who is still there and who isn't....

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

I was also half expecting the male clone to turn around and be a Felix, I have to admit.

And given the actor's real accent there's definite potential for things to get almost as weird as with the female clones.

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

I thought they were going to introduce a male clone from a few episodes back. I think naming the project "leda" gave me a clue that more clones were out there - one set likely male.

I am so relieved it isn't Felix that I don't know what to do.

Well, I'd definitely not count your chickens at this point. Who knows what they will do in season 3. I mean a show that has Alison and Donnie hot to trot after (and because of!) burying a body, and Tony macking on Felix, is basically capable of anything.

The creators talked about choosing the male clone, and they thought Felix was too obvious, so they went a different direction. Also, Mark was supposed to die in episode 6, but they liked the actor too much, and also they were trying to pick a clone, so that worked out for them.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I thought for sure it was Paul, because of Castor and Pollux.

That's where I thought they were going with the Castor thing too.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

I just realized, when Maslany plays Rachel, her hair is a different color and cut. If that's a wig, it's a good one.
