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.

Loved the "Look me up." Essence of the Doctor.

I do hope that Donna finds Lee, or vice versa. I want that to be the only way she leaves the Doctor. Of course, with this show, what's the chance of that happening?

River Song knows the Doctor's name! I wanna know the Doctor's name! And how sad that he was only able to "save" her, but fitting.

I loved the fingersnap. I hope we see that in further episodes.

So Jenny gets to regenerate but doesn't get new personhood? Interesting. Did enjoy the episode a lot. My Donna love grows and my Martha love remains undiminished. I am VERY curious who her fiance and/or husband is, though.

Art Crawl!!!

Maybe new personhood is a choice of some sort.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

But was it regeneration? The F/X looked like the terraforming F/X to me.

Do you watch Torchwood, Frank? It was mentioned in "Reset."

If I remember correctly, it was mentioned in "The Sontaran Stragem," and in "Reset" she only mentioned that she had a boyfriend.

All is well that ends in pizza.

With the finger snap? It must be Arthur Fonzarelli.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

Don't encourage him. I had to try to get to sleep last night with that thought in my head.

bonny,

I was trying something to figure out if it works.

Apparently I got the bsg ep to stream at the following link. I will keep the file there for 48 hours unless I hear differently from you.
