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.

Tumblr has totally spoiled me for the you-know-what part of the promo but the rest of it looks pretty sweet! I am particularly psyched to see Thea training with Malcolm.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Wait, I didn't even notice that part! Oh darn, I'll have to watch it again.

And I like what we've seen so far (which is admittedly just a few seconds) of Ray Palmer.

Whee!

Oh, the part of the promo where it's Thea training with Malcolm -- I didn't recognize Thea because of her haircut. She reminded me of Charisma Carpenter. Seriously. But I figured it wasn't, since I hadn't heard any casting news.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Is there a pinwiz-unrelated reason promos are being whitefonted?

For my part, just general disremembering of what's allowed to be whitefonted and what isn't.

IF it was a promo on TV, it's fine.

I just...I hate being faced with a wall of whitefont with the suspicion I might even already know some of it, and could read more without getting spoilt, but instead staying out of the conversation.

Whitefonting seems pretty random right now. It's be easier, I swear, if it wasn't allowed--if it needed white fonting, it belongs in the next spoiler thread down. In clear text.

Well, the one I posted was being called (as of yesterday, when I posted it) a "Facebook exclusive." So not on TV. Would that make it whitefonty?

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Question - aside from watching on BBCA, what are the other official venues for obtaining eps of New Who. I'm looking at trimming my cable package and DW and Orphan Black are the only things I'd miss. It may be cheaper in the long run to get eps off iTunes or somewhere.

Anne, I'm pretty sure it is a available on hulu plus.
