I am very tired of tragic backstories.

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.
The Flash:
Cisco having memories of the altered timeline was not something I was expecting, and I started immediately worrying that he really wouldn’t make it to the end of the season because the timeline wants to correct itself. I didn’t think he was going to recover from that bee sting.
I still find Ray Palmer to be super creepy. Buying out the entire restaurant?
I kinda expected Lowell to be a zombie given his sudden interest in Liv, but the Captain being a zombie was a shock.
Same on both counts. I was afraid the new body for Liv was his.
I like the actress, but the "hero's love interest makes really bad decisions because everyone is keeping them in the dark" was horrible enough on Arrow. I have no idea why they felt the need to repeat it on The Flash.

You guys already said the things I was going to say, so I'll just point upward and say, "cosigned."
From Once Upon A Time - it occurred to me - why does everyone's happily ever after HAVE to include a One True Love? why aren't there any happy endings with people single? or with a partner of (gasp!) the same sex?
Probably because that's the way it works in the fairy tales/children's stories that inspired the show. The beautiful princess marries the handsome prince, and they all live happily ever after.
Although it would be nice if one of the original (to the series) characters breaks the pattern. Maybe August?
Frozen was so refreshing for that alone.

I'm finding him less creepy, though Felicity's explanation of how they met followed with "But it wasn't as creepy as it sounds." made me shake my head. No, Felicity, it really was as creepy add it sounds.
I still find Ray Palmer to be super creepy. Buying out the entire restaurant?
I couldn't help but think, did the restaurant just call back all the people who'd been looking forward to their reservations that night for months and tell them the place was unexpectedly closing, better luck next time? Maybe people who'd been planning on proposing, or celebrating an anniversary or other special occasion? All so His Royal Majesty wouldn't have to be troubled by seeing anyone he wasn't personally dining with enjoying a nice meal?
Thoughtless entitlement by rich white dudes isn't actually all that charming.
I don't have a problem with Iris, but I am kinda pissed at how Joe has decided she needs to be kept in the dark. I was especially annoyed with the conversation between him and Eddie about making her decisions for her. Very patronizing.
Arrow:
ahhhhhhhhhh!
