Xander: Hey, Red. What you got in the basket, little girl? Buffy: Weapons.

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.

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.

My recording borked about 20 minutes into AoS, so I'll have to catch it on demand tomorrow.

As for Flash, I found the bit with Linda trying to learn how to be Dr. Light pretty amusing.

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

REALLY liked Arrow tonight.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Yes, REALLY good. Even in the best episodes, there's usually some bit of clunky plotting or awkward characterization, but everything worked tonight.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

I just watched last night's Flash -- that got DARK at the end!

Yeah, Zoom is freaking terrifying. I'm less judgey about Jay Garrick being afraid of him now.

There's a lot of internet speculation that Zoom is Earth-2 Barry Allen, but his eyes look a LOT like Hank Allen. THAT would be a spectacular mindfuck.

I've actually heard more speculation that he's Earth 2 Henry (and the Earth 2 news report outing Robert Queen as The Hood was meant as a hint.)

Personally, I'm disappointed that Earth 2 Robert Queen as the Green Arrow wasn't running around in the Robin Hood hat and goatee (since we'll never see it on the show, other than maybe as a joke.)

It would nicely parallel the stuff with Earth-2 Wells and his daughter (Jesse Quick HOLY CRAP YES), and with Joe and his previously unknown son.

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

I want to know about all the other Earth counterparts. What the hell is Earth 1 Jay doing? Is he going to be introduced? Earth 2 Cisco, Barry, Joe?

Arrow - The last 2 episodes just seem really strong and I hope that continues. Still some complaints - no even mention of contacting Nyssa. Sara seemingly with no bloodlust when in the Nanda ep or the one before she could barely hold it at bay day to day even after a kill. No actual CEOing going on by Felicity.

Oh, and when they hatched the plan for Linda to dress up as Dr. Light, I said "I see they have Buffy in this universe."
