All the stability in the world to you, Jess.
Oh my god. What can it be? We're all doomed! Who's flying this thing!? Oh right, that would be me. Back to work.

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.

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

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.
Extended promo for The Flash next week: [link]
That flower pattern skirt Felicity is wearing in the first scene! I need it in my life.
I would never in a million years want to take Felicity away from Arrow, but tonally, her character seems a better fit for The Flash universe, even from that 30 second promo.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Well, I don't work for the channel, and my department probably won't be too affected. But roughly a third of the office will probably be working for AMC in 6 months.

More thoughts on Forever. I have a guess as to where the curse comes from (though not the how) based on a single facial expression.
Back in the pilot, when Henry was trying to keep the slave from being thrown overboard, the expression on the slaves face was not "Oh what a noble, if futile gesture". It was WTF to the bazillionth.
The way I interpret this is "You had nothing to say surrounded by people in chains on their way to being sold, but when one of us is to be killed in front of you THEN it is too much for you. Where were you the rest of voyage?"
In short, Henry was the good man who was silent in the face of evil until it was too late. Now who cast the curse I don't know. The slave's curse as he died? Some god or spirit? But the point of the curse was "You valued life but not freedom? Then you shall have life till you are sick of it, with no freedom to choose to end it." Anyway, that is what I got out of a single facial expression.

If one person can be cursed so can another. We don't know Adam's back story yet, but it does not have to be exactly the same; to be consistent with this theory all that would be needed would be for Adam to have been cursed for having (at one time) valued life over the things that made life worth living.

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

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Tom, that's an excellent article on Constantine, thanks for linking.
