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.

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

Oliver really needed to have told Felicity about William long before this. If Thea could figure it out, then Felicity can. And as soon as Oliver realized that Thea could figure it out, he's ridiculously stupid to have not realized that Felicity can, too.

All is well that ends in pizza.

I think it would be a nice bit to find out Felicity already knows about William, and she felt that Ollie was justifiably of mixed mind on the whole thing.

when i die, please bake my ashes into a brick and use me to hit fascists.

How is it that Thea is okay with it? Thea's whole thing is not liking being lied to. SIGH.

On the plus side, the engagement stuff was freakin' adorable. I wonder how many takes they did with that glitter bomb before Amell could keep a straight face.

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

I did, in fact, say "Everyone give it up for America's favorite fighting Frenchman!"

I was genuinely confused at first that Lafayette was played by some white guy in a wig, when OBVIOUSLY he looks like this.

(As far as X-Files goes, ptui. We will never speak of it again.)

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Aw, lizard man was cute! (We're only up to that episode.)

Weremonster was great! Babylon was wretched.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

Yeah, Carter should've stuck to writing the 1st and last eps of this season. Where's Spotnitz in all this? Is he involved at all?

At least Darin Morgan played a part in the miniseries. Did Jim Wong as well?

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

A fun Sleepy Hollow last night, I thought--if the show had been this entertaining and well-paced all season long I doubt it would be in danger of cancellation. :-/ Granted, my shipper heart was hoping for more Ichabbie than I got, but I blame some early reviews that were all, "This episode is going to make fans of Ichabbie happy!" which may have created...exaggerated expectations. Like, I wasn't expecting wall sex (there's fanfic for that!) but some unambiguous shippiness would've been nice.

I'm still giggling over the Early Burr Special at Colonial Times, though.
