Tracy: Well-- That call -- That call means you just murdered me. Mal: No, son. You murdered yourself. I just carried the bullet a while.

'The Message'


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.

"It didn't taste good. It tasted soooo horrible. It tasted like....a vodka martini." - Matilda

Okay, so 12-year-old Kara showed up 12 years ago along with a gaggle of alien criminals. At this point, Superman was already being a hero. Earth puts together a super-sekrit anti-alien agency that is kept secret from Superman, the person and/or alien best equipped to deal with alien criminals. The alien criminals wander about for 12 years without anyone noticing except the super-sekrit agency. Really?

Also, I will quibble that that office does not look or act like a newspaper office and layouts are done on computers.

I may have to leave the room during scenes with Cat Grant.

layouts are done on computers.

Yeah, my reaction was "It should be on the server!"

that office does not look or act like a newspaper office

Oh, but they're print AND online! That made me laugh. Uh, it's 2015. That isn't exactly pioneering.

Cisco said "cosmic treadmill"! (Well, "cosmic," but you know, in response to "what kind of treadmill is that?")

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

I bark-laughed like a hyena. "Put your hands -- FINS in the air!!" OH MY GOD.

I really liked Jefferson Jackson. They (him and Stein) are both going to Legends of Tomorrow, I presume? It'd be fun to see them return to The Flash from time to time. And since I'm living here and all... who's the person who's supposed to train them in Pittsburgh? Is it a comics canon thing? Curious minds, etc.

HARRISON WELLS, YES. Welcome back, you creeper.

Why isn't everyone pelting me with JOY, dammit? - Zenkitty

Welcome back, you creeper.

Not if it's the real Wells instead of Thawne in a Wells-suit! (Right? We have nothing against poor, dead, real Wells, right?)

Teppy, you just made me so sad that I'm currently watching the Republican debate.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

This episode is really good, or I am being swayed by others.

it was not enough salmon ladder.

Paul Blackthorne - great.

Also, I'm officially afraid that the grave 6 months from now is Cop Daddy's.
