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.

So happy about Sleepy Hollow.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Holy shit, The Flash.

Thank god Cisco's not really dead. I mean, I knew he couldn't be, but that scene was amazing.

Great news about Sleepy Hollow.

I'm not entirely sure I understand what happened on The Flash. I get reset, but do we know why or how?

Also screamed at Cisco dying and was all "Really? Right now?" with respect to the kissy face.

Based on what happened early in the episode, it seems to me that Barry went so fast, he went back in time.

Oh, you know what, that made me realize that I tuned in late. Thanks, sj.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Really glad Sleepy Hollow is renewed! What are our thoughts on the new showrunner? As I have none myself but I want some.

Sleepy Hollow has been renewed!

Yay! It stumbled a bit at the beginning of S2, but I really liked how they wrapped things up.

I'm not familiar with the showrunner's work, but I'm disappointed that it is an 18 episode season. I think with this show shorter runs are better.

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

Apparently a lot of people hate Cisco, but I like him.

I don't get this at all. Cisco is an adorable goof, funny and smart and loyal, and super-identifiable for most of its audience as a fellow geek. You would think the fanboys over at AV Club would see themselves in Cisco (they WISH they were as cute) but they really love to bag on him for some reason. Not me. Of the entire Flash gang, he's probably my favourite.

I love Cavanaugh's portrayal of Wells/Thawn SO MUCH. I cannot remember an on-screen villain I loved more in recent memory. Whatever long game they're telling with him, they have me wrapped around their little finger. Even his motivation is great. He's not psychotic or bent on world domination or mad with grief because of a dead wife/girlfriend or whatever (at this point, I assume that story about Tess was total fake or he killed her himself) -- he just fucking wants to go home, and he will do whatever he needs to do to get there.

"Forgive me, but to me, you have been dead for centuries." GOOSEBUMPS, I tell you.

Hell yes.
