Could just be a hoax, though. I fake some headaches, everyone gets used to poor helpless Spike. Then one day, no warning, I snap a spine, bend a head back, drain 'em dry. Brilliant.

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.

Okay, I'll say it -- Barbara Gordon is a self centered, narcissistic waste of space. Please let us find out that Lee is the Doctor's middle name and her real name is Barbara so that the future Batgirl will be born from a woman with some moxie.

Barbara becomes Batgirl? I really don't know much about the comics.

I say we just slide over Commissioner Gordon's wife's name and say he named his daughter after a former girlfriend who was killed by a serial killer.

That works for me, and the sooner the better.

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

Barbara becomes Batgirl?

Not this Barbara, Gordon's daughter, Barbara (who is maybe named after the future Mrs. Gordon's mother named Barbara).

Thanks, DX.

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

Flash: They transported a body!? Not one, but two professional police detectives, they illegally transported a body!? And got away with it!? And didn't see any problem with it!?

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Yeah, legal realities are kind of non-existent on these shows.

I have no idea how the time lines match up. I couldn't really figure out where Ray and Felicty's jaunt to Central City last week fit in with the whole Oliver being arrested for being the Arrow and then Roy taking his place.

Man, preview for next week looks like a lot of stuff is going down. How many episodes are left in this season?

I think they got out of sync, and Arrow is one ahead. That's my best guess, though, not worth whitefonting.
