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.

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

So, Defiance finale. If the design of the Omec hadn't been such a horrible racist disaster, I would have really enjoyed this season! But mostly, the finale just made me want to rewatch Farscape again.

What, you mean you weren't wowed by how progressive the showrunners were to give so many African-American actors the opportunity to play cannibalistic warriors?

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Was the most recent Doctor Who discussed here?

Yes.

I don't really know when it aired.

There was the Xmas episode, but before that, it aired between Aug 23 & Nov 8 of last year

Yeah, no. NSM.

Oh Falling Skies, why did I waste so much time on you? I knew better.

Ah well, I got to see the ad for next season of The Librarians, that looks like fun.

Hulu only has the last half of Dark Matter. Is it worth paying for the first half of the season?

Hm. Maybe? Where does it start on Hulu, maybe you can just jump in

Hulu only has eps 9-13, so it would be just the end.

Mm, that wouldn't work, then.

Tough call. I like it, it gets stronger as it goes on, but I can't say with confidence that it's worth $2/episode.

I think the previouslies fill you in on most of what you'd need to know from the first couple of episodes.
