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.

..is Mr. Terrific gay in the comics?

I do not think so.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

It seemed to me like mentioning Moira in her first speech was a bad idea. I mean, there was no reason she needed to do it, and that would just remind everybody about the Undertaking.

The wig is gone!

I liked the cut between Laurel's idea face on "He would do anything to save his sister" and Quentin's reaction to Darhk threatening Laurel. The Lances might not get along so well, but they've got each other's backs.

I liked the four of them jumping through the roof at once, though I wished for a better camera angle. Speedy's stunt double is really obvious, but I'm trying to ignore that.

Fern!

The flashback wig is gone!

How are they planning to get to Nanda Parbat? Can't exactly fly commercial, and I don't think either of them currently have the resources to get a private jet.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

I did like Anarky's line asking if there was something wrong with the front door.

I swear we've gone to weirdo-verse. Thea's issues aside, two episodes in and Arrow has felt lighter than Flash so far this season.

I'm pretty sure Mr. Terrific is straight in the comics. I believe the producers, when they announced they were adding the character to the show also said that he would be gay in their universe.

Also, once again Laurel doesn't think things through. "Hmm, Thea is getting crazy violent because of the Lazarus Pit. What should I do? I know, use it on my sister!"

So, back to The Flash: what was Jay Garrick DOING for 6 months after being spat out of the wormhole but before he walked into Star Labs? As in, where was he living? And how did he pay for it? How did he eat? Did he get a job? He's a chemist/physicist, so maybe he made meth.

And if the wormhole dumped Earth-2 Jay Garrick on Earth-1, then WHY did no one at STAR Labs wonder if Ronnie got dumped on Earth-2 or some other Earth?

And finally, if there are 52 portals, does that mean there are 51 Harrison Wellses out there? GOD I HOPE SO. And in one of the universes he owns a bowling alley.

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

Speaking of the late and deeply lamented Ed, have you heard the "Mike and Tom Eat Snacks" podcast, Teppy? It's Tom Cavanaugh and Michael Ian Black basically trying to make each other laugh while engaging in PERS--Pick a snack, Eat a snack, Rate a snack. So smart and funny and they just take such delight in each other that it's a pure joy to listen to. [link] Start from the beginning, as they kind of build on each other as they go on.
