'Serenity'


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.

I doubt it; she wouldn't have reacted to Roy like she did.

Yeah, on second thought, that was clearly a misdirect. I think it was probably a way his subconscious was reminding him of the horrible stuff he'd done under Mirakuru's influence. I bet the next ep is gonna deal with that cop Roy had killed in "Seeing Red."

Felicity saving herself pretty much made my night. As was her gently and firmly shutting it down when Oliver was saying all that stuff with "you know how I feel about her," like, Oliver, I love ya buddy, but that was the DEFINITION Of Dangling Maybes that Felicity told you she did not want.

this mess was yours / now your mess is mine

Felicity saving herself pretty much made my night.

Don't fuck with Felicity Smoak, yo. I liked that Ollie was almost a secondary character in this episode. (Except -- oh my god, did I squee when Ollie and Roy were shooting arrows side by side during the bank riot. LOVE.)

As was her gently and firmly shutting it down when Oliver was saying all that stuff with "you know how I feel about her," like, Oliver, I love ya buddy, but that was the DEFINITION Of Dangling Maybes that Felicity told you she did not want.

Seriously. Good for her.

I can't see how Ollie and Thea being roommates could lead to anything but sunshine and puppies. There's no possible way THAT could go horrifically wrong. (Also, MALCOLM YOU CREEPER GET OFF THE ROOF OH MY GOD.)

Compassionately intolerant

SH:

Ichabod littered! When he stripped off his I Voted sticker (which was adorbs), he dropped it in the street. Give a Hoot Ichabod!!

Having just come off polling place captain duties, I was totally charmed by those scenes. I only wish my precinct was that quiet!

In DC, it is not illegal for two people to go into a voting booth (or, in our case, stand in front of a rickety pop-up table).

They've done such a good job casting this show. Seriously. Ichabod and Katrina look so well together. And IchAbbie is a perfect match of wills and wits.

Ichabod's wig should win a best supporting something award.

Arrow's hair and makeup people should take a leaf from their book.

I've grown ridiculously fond of Arrow's flashback!wig. It just makes me laugh, every damn time.

Re: Grimm, but it applies to so many shows here.

Stop keeping secrets, people! I am weary of plot lines in which things are worse than they need to be because everyone is lying.

Oh, lord, yes. "No, I can't tell So and So that her boyfriend is evil! I can't admit that I was there and saw everything! My spouse can never know that I am Whozit!"

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

In Grimm's defense, the Wesen have been a highly guarded secret for millennium, so outing it to someone is against all custom. You just don't go blabbing it.

Thought it was fascinating that there's an opthalmological explanation for Nick's Grimm ability to see voging.

It was Trubel's not telling Nick about the FBI Wesen and her proposal that set me off, plus the fact that they really need to tell Wu.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Oh -- I wasn't thinking about Trubel and the Federal Bureau of Wesen Investigation, only Wu.
