Also, you can tell it's not gonna have a happy ending when the main guy's all bumpy.

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.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

No, Lowell is the hot musician boyfriend. Liv saw Blaine coming to his apartment with a lunchbox full'o'brains THEN had a flashback to Jerome being kidnapped after munching on Lowell's supply of brain from his fridge. The implication being that she just ate Jerome's brains. Poor Jerome.

No, I got that part, I just wasn't sure of his name. He just might be a customer, not necessarily beholden, as opposed to the chief, at this point. Poor Jerome, poor Liv and poor Major if he ever finds out what's the what.

Forever: Wait, is that where it ends? It's not getting renewed?

The odds are very bad. But I know! Still, I love Abe. I would love to able to see Jo say, "Wait. He's your dad?"

Abigail was a wonderful woman. And good god, what he did to Adam.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Not, I think, overreacting regarding the man who murdered his wife/the mother of his child to make a point. Though he might be in for some future heat from the authorities once people set Adam up with a system to communicate via blinking, as is SOP with victims of Locked-in Syndrome. Adam's eyelids weren't paralyzed.

I thought Abigail cut her own throat to keep from telling him about Henry. Still, she obviously knew what kind of man Adam was, considering what he did to the guy just to find out about the dagger.

A bad night for people who'd been cut apart by Nazis--two shows worth!

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

I thought Abigail cut her own throat to keep from telling him about Henry.

That was my take.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Aaaah iZombie !! I THINK Lowell may simply be a customer of Blaine's, but it appears every zombie in town is at this point, so I don't think he's eeeeevil or anything. But I AM VERY WORRIED ABOUT RAVI.

Also, I don't believe the reaction to finding out your wife possibly killed someone is "Not cool, babe."

Not caught up on IZombie, but Flash was pretty great last night.

Did anyone who has also seen Daredevil find themselves comparing Iris's reaction to Foggy's? I also thought Iris went a little too easy on Joe, because his reason for insisting she stay in the dark never made any fucking sense.

Flash's mind control protection helmet needed a chin strap. Serious design flaw.

I'm confused about the kidnapping Eddie play here. Wells called him his insurance policy I think, but I would think messing with Eddie's timeline by feeding him info about the future would be incredibly dangerous for his great....great grandson.

Also, didn't Wells already reveal that his real last name is Thawne during one of those scenes with Cisco - the dream one or the one with the double? You'd think they'd put two and two together.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Flash's mind control protection helmet needed a chin strap. Serious design flaw.

He needed to put it on under his cowl. But then that would have made it much harder to knock off, which would have deprived us of the gag-worthy Iris "Do it for ME, Barry!" scene.

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

I don't get the kidnapping of Eddie either. I don't get a lot though.

Barry had to get faster to help get Evil Dr. Ed back to the future, so his speed plays some role. Whatever EDE had last night in the tube to light up the fancy tunnel either I missed what that was or he has had it all along?

I guess EDE had some sort of plan for getting back, but his timetable has been sped up by everyone figuring his shit out?

I don't care about Barry and Iris, I don't ship anyone on this show, which is a damn shame.

How do you solve a problem like Grodd?

See I really get nothing? It is all big wha? to me.

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.

My guess is Wells needs to get Barry to chase him into his giant tunnel of doom, which will somehow allow him to harness Barry's speed and give him the jump start he needs to get back to the future.
