The reactor host is David Huntsberger, one of the hosts of the Professor Blastoff podcast, which I LOVE. Blastoff also has Tig Notaro and Kyle Dunnigan. BEST. PODCAST. EVER.
May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one.

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.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I just finished watching Season 3 of Orphan Black and I have a couple of questions. Can I ask them outright or should I white-font?

Also is Defiance worth watching?

No need to whitefront Orphan Black.
Defiance is pretty uneven. I like it, but I'm not sure I can recommend it.

Thanks, -t.
Ok, about Orphan Black: how did Helena get her babies back? She left the cannister in Felix's apartment where Kira found it but apparently didn't tell anyone. Then when Helena gets back to civilization she suddenly has it again at Alison's house. And yet, nobody else seems to know about it or has ever mentioned it.
Then, if Charlotte is now in the custody of the other Dr. Duncan, what happened to Michelle Forbes' character.
And then, after "dealing with" Pouchy, Helena and Donny seemed very sanguine about having Art at the same dinner table.

Seconded. It definitely has its moments.

I just assumed that before they took her to Alison's they swung by Felix's for Helena to collect her things and that was one of her things.
Michelle Forbes was a "Topside" person, yes? My guess is Dr. Duncan is more or less head of Topside.
And that's just how Helena and Donnie roll. Well, Helena. Donnie, I would guess, is blocking out that whole episode pretty hard.

Michelle Forbes is the actress, her part was Dr. Marian Bowles, and last time we saw her she was introducing Sarah to her daughter, Charlotte, in the last episode of Season 2.
Then in the last episode of Season 3, Charlotte tells Rachel that Rachel will be her new mommy. So what happened to Dr. Bowles?

In case you have missed it, the BBCA Jonathan Strange and Mr. Norrell was great (and still available on demand). It diverged from the book as little as possible, mostly in places where the differences between video and the written word demanded it; IMO it was very faithful to the spirit. I find myself speculating that one change that appears minor may result in a major divergence when the second volume comes out. If my speculations are right, a sequel from the same network may have to do backflips to restore a seemingly unimportant subconflict they eliminated.

It really was! I'm thinking of going back and giving the book another go. And I really want a sequel!
