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.

A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Does anyone else wonder why the future computer calls him Dr. Wells and not Dr. Thawne?

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

So the audience wouldn't know? That's all I've got. From what I have seen the producers say, they really don't care about stuff like that.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Wells could've programmed the name he wanted to be called in preferences, like with Siri.

Maybe it's a defense against electronic surveillance or a metahuman with super-hearing?

"...and then Legolas and the Hulk destroy the entire Greek army." - Penny Arcade

iZombie:

Well, that was still pretty good, but kind of...rushed? or overstuffed? I feel like the arc kind of meandered through the episode, with the last part after the arrest really feeling like they were skipping through something that should have been let develop more.

If they'd cut a bunch of the stuff with Zombie Sark and moved it to the next episode, they might have been able to give Liv's emotional arc the attention it needed. I don't know if that would have messed up the season plot arc though - is this going to be 13 episodes? Or less?

And was anyone else kind of annoyed Clive turned out to be right about it being the wife?

Flash:

Barry continues to have chemistry with everyone but Iris.

Yay, Cisco lives!

Was not!Todd (my OLTL reference name for newspaper guy) killed or sent to another time?

It looked like Wells vibrated a hand through his heart and left a scorch mark on his shirt before cleaning up the crime scene, so I'm going to assume killed.

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

sj, wrong show.
