Kaylee: So how many fell madly in love with you and wanted to take you away from all this? Inara: Just the one. I think I'm slipping.

'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.

Me too. I want to like her, but I can't.

I don't trust her.

I was really hoping that she was going to die heroically in the fight. Or just die.

She really is 100% useless, and I'm tired of being told *about* her (i.e., the love of Ichabod's life, bad-ass witch, super spy), instead of seeing any of that in action. She has no agency and, worst of all, Katia Winter has zero chemistry with Tom Mison, which seems damn near impossible, because Tom Mison has chemistry with damn near everyone.

So, concur.

Unrelated to Sleepy Hollow -- the Flash was ridiculously fun last night. My only real sticking point is how Eddie suddenly decided the Flash is a menace and there should be a task force to hunt him down. Because that was pre-Angry Flash kicking his ass. So Eddie's sudden need to turn the Flash into public enemy #1 is a little too J. Jonah Jameson for my taste.

Diggle is THE BEST.

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

Diggle is not impressed by Star Labs. Blown away by The Flash, but fuck STAR Labs and their weird nerds--I like how they join him in the corridor when it's time to leave.

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

Wait, wait, wait. A Slade Wilson who’s Australian, and a Captain Boomerang who’s NOT Australian?

Jai Courtney is Australian.

Don't think too hard about it.

Also, I LOVED this episode. They need to team up ALL THE TIME.

And I'm pretty sure the showrunners are fucking with the fans about the salmon ladder at this point, because everyone but Ollie is using it.

Crossover gold. Those two play off of each other so well. And the teams.
