You're wrong about River. River's not on the ship. They didn't want her here, but she couldn't make herself leave. So she melted... Melted away. They didn't know she could do that, but she did.

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.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

Did anyone else watch the Once Upon a Time two-hour finale?

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

Yes, sort of. My attention kept wandering.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I don't really get why Johanssen's clone would be more valuable than the Castor clones. Just being a different line from the same source so different copying errors, I guess?

I think the idea was that the Castor and Leda lines were significantly modified from the original genome, but Johanssen had created a straight-up duplicate of the original, so that genome wouldn't have the health problems introduced by the synthetic DNA. (But apparently had health problems significant enough to die as an infant, so...other risks, probably!)

Ann, that's a ferret.

Did anyone else watch the Once Upon a Time two-hour finale?

Not yet. It's on the DVR for tonight.

Did anyone else watch the Once Upon a Time two-hour finale?

Yes. At first it reminded me a little of Superstar and The Wish though not nearly as good, then it veered into rehash territory of that Back to the Future Episode where Emma has to get Snow and Charming to fall in love, but I did find the resolution

of Henry becoming the new author somewhat satisfying.

Sadly, watching a Henry-centric episode of OUAT is always painful as that poor child actor is just not very good, not even compared to Jennifer Morrison who becomes harder to watch every season.

I did notice that Hook's eyeliner seems to be a permanent accouterment.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I haven't watched yet. Probably tomorrow since TCG was home today and doesn't watch it.

I just finished the OuaT finale and am pretty well satisfied.

I found most of the performances in Bizarro Fairy Tale Land odd. The characters acted like they knew they were playing pretend.

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

I'm putting that down to 1. Their real selves bleeding through and 2. Isaac not being very good at origfic.

Also? When Person A sacrifices not only their own happiness, but the happiness of the man they claim to love, in order to protect person B, I feel it makes a fairly strong statement about Person A's feelings for Person B.
