I am not...I am not the damsel in distress. I am not some case. I have to work this. I've lived in a cave for 5 years in a world where they killed my kind like cattle. I am not going to be cut down by some monster flu. I am better than that. What a wonder...how very scared I am.

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.

I didn't realize it was such a short season!!! Just when it was getting somewhat good, at least, at keeping my interest going.

Closed captioning had it as Galeas. I don't recall anyone in the Arthurian mythos named that, but it is far from my area of expertise.

Thanks! According to Wikipedia it's another name for Galahad. Or a small sailing ship, but given the le Fay connection, I'm comfortable calling it for the former. IO9 likes it, too. [link]

Thrive to spite them

I got an amazon gift card for xmas and bought the season. I'll try to watch as much as I can in the order intended.

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

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

Wow, Vinnie Jones seems to be everywhere these days.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Oh, that's Vinnie Jones! The short glimpse of him in the TV trailer (which is a lot shorter) made me think, "I know that guy...who is he?" I think I've only seen him on Elementary, but he was fairly terrifying there.

Well, that makes me happy.

Constantine animated short.

I'm still watching the show, it's still s-l-o-w-l-y improving each episode.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

My feeling about Constantine is that it needs to spend way less time having someone yell incantations in a dark room and it need to have way less of the angel being a dick. So far, the angel seems to be entirely pointless.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

Anyone else watch 12 Monkeys or the second season opener of Helix?

I'm kinda meh on both, but I'll probably keep watching for at least a few more episodes.

I watched all of Constantine in a couple of days over the mid-season break and really loved it. I haven't watched last night's episode yet.
