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.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

I was with Cisco on the bomb thing. Even after Jay and Harry "explained" it, the one bomb going through the portal pulling the others didn't make much sense.

On the scale of That's Not How [Thing] Works!, the bomb plan is just below that time Captain Cold FROZE LIGHT with his cold gun.

Unrelated to implausibility, I *loved* Joe talking shit about Green Arrow (nobody wanting an action figure of him).

I feel like the show dropped the thread of Patty shooting Wells. Surely Joe would need to explain his existence SOMEHOW.

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

"The only time I’ve been a man, that last body. Dear lord, how do you cope with all that ego?"

And honestly, Moffat, you don't think Missy's got an ego? Or Clara, for that matter? Do you watch your own show even?

Thanks, Arrow. Millions of people just lost the LDB game.

And the rest? I just don't think the show would kill off Felicity. I want to be more stressed about it, but I don't think the show would do it.

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

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

Yeah, I don't buy it either. I mean, they are treading all the beats of fridging and I'd ordinarily be pissed, but c'mon. The exec producers are not dumb and Felicity is waaaaay too popular to kill off. They're just being a bunch of trolls. Also, why set up all the babymama conflict if Felicity wasn't gonna be there to give hell to Oliver later?

Right until the Big Dumb Idiot proposed under the light-festooned Gazebo (talk about bringing out ALL the cliches), I was convinced Quentin was gonna buy it.

Although... the joke idea I floated upthread about killing off *this* Felicity and bringing over Earth 2 Felicity? It doesn't sound that crazy now.

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

My theory is still that William is in the grave. Then it would make sense that Barry would be the only one there, since he's the only one who knows.

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.

Yeah, I think they're trying too hard to make us think she's the one in the grave for it to actually be her, but maybe they really are that stupid.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

I'm pissed about the LDB thing. I mean come on! I've been so careful about avoiding anything that seemed likely to expose me. I feel like I just got a LDB pie in the face!
