Um, well, we listened to aggressively cheerful music sung by people chosen for their ability to dance. Then we ate cookie dough, and talked about boys.

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.

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

sj, it's a deeply stupid show. I'm still watching for Melissa Leo and Reed Diamond.

It is, but the cast is so wonderful that I just really want it to be better.

I made it through 2 eps of Wayward Pines and I haven't been able to make myself go back and watch the rest.

Bitten is pretty boring. I watched 4 eps a few months ago during an insomnia night and it was...boring.

Residue on Netflix, which Rio recommended, is FANTASTIC. Three eps, set in London with a bunch of GoT characters, and it's about the aftermath of an explosion of a weapons cache in the middle of the city. It's really well acted, creepy as fuck in many places, well-written, beautifully shot, and ends ambiguously (but I think there will be Series 2.) I highly recommend it!

(Ah, wrong thread, though it has supernatural elements, but I'll x-post in Streaming because yo, it IS good and you should watch it.)

I only made it through 2.

So I finished Season 2 of The 100 last night. Wow.

If you happen to be a Farscape fan because there's no right answer, only less wrong ones: you might like this show.

I'm not overwhelmed by the acting, but some of the cast is great, although you can't always tell because everyone's covered in mud and blood pretty much constantly.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

"What kind of monster threatens a man's cat"

Felix was so great with Crystal. And Scott was just awesome all over the place. He doesn't have to be personally involved in all this, so I give him extra points for stepping up.

And Donnie with the "I may be a bitch but I''m Alison's bitch...." Aw, Donnie. Yeah, you are.

Goddamn, Rachel. So wrong. Crystal really was worth ten of her.

Next week looks amazing.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Ugh, poor Crystal. And as ever, so odd to hear Felix's "other" voice.

So weird. Is that his real accent? I vaguely remember being shocked the first interview I saw him do because of his accent but I've totally gone back to thinking Felix's "truth voice" is the real one.

Yeah, Jordan Gavaris is Canadian, at least. [link]

Ugh! I'm watching iZombie on a bit of a delay, and there was no sound on everything before the opening credits. Quick recap, anyone?

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I seriously said "Okay, Major is my new favorite character!" about 2 seconds before Blaine knifed him.

Also, 100% unsurprised Liv scratched him. I would do the same thing. But I think Major might not be very happy about it.
