I do appreciate them casting John Wesley Shipp as Barry's dad.
Zoe: First rule of battle, little one. Don't ever let 'em know where you are. Mal: Whoo-hoo! I'm right here! I'm right here! You want some of me? Yeah, you do! Come on! Come on! Aaah! Whoo-hoo! Zoe: Of course, there are other schools of thought...

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.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
That is a nice touch.

My reaction was "Damn, Dawson's dad sure has aged!"

Sj she and the guy were in the ep where Slade stole the thing from the star labs warehouse to do the giant blood transfusion.
Finally got E caught up on Arrow and then we watched The Flash. I do believe Dr. Ed is evil and/or from the future.

I actually gasped when he stood up from his wheelchair. I am the perfect audience for this show.

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.
Flash was pretty good.
I'm thinking two possibilities for Dr. Wells at the end:
1) He's this universe's version of Professor Zoom. (And it looked like a man in a yellow and red flash outfit in the blur that killed Barry's mother. Total guess here: the red and yellow blurs Barry saw were his future self and Professor Zoom battling and Barry had to save his younger self.)
2) He's some other time traveler who is trying to prevent the event we saw in the futuristic newspaper clip.
ETA: And apparently I'm wrong, because I just saw they cast someone else as Professor Zoom, or at least as his secret identity.

I'd be disappointed if the yellow blur were anything else.

OK, on Forever, are those two antiques dealers a riff on those brothers on Antiques Roadshow?

Also, I liked the way the camera lingered on a smashed cage at STAR Labs labeled "Grodd". I doubt they're going to be able to do a giant telepathic gorilla on a TV budget, but it was a fun little nod.
