'Bring On The Night'


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.

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

especially since last week hinted that the masked prisoner might be the real Jay

I think he was trying to communicate that Zoom was Jay.

Overall, I'm kinda let down by the reveal since I'm not super keen on the actor who plays Jay and not sure if he has the range to pull it off.

On the other hand, King Shark made me laugh like a hyena whenever he appeared, so thumbs up on that front. That slo-mo shark chase in the water!

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I think he was trying to communicate that Zoom was Jay.

Yes.

Overall, I'm kinda let down by the reveal since I'm not super keen on the actor who plays Jay and not sure if he has the range to pull it off.

I hate it because it seemed like an obvious choice. I wanted a more painful reveal like one of Barry's Earth 2 parents.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

OMG I haven't caught up yet, is this going to piss me off like the last season of the original XF did?

I was watching with a couple of friends, and one commented that the WTF Chris Carter felt very nostalgic. If the finale doesn't leave you wanting to throw a shoe at the television, was it really the X-Files?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Well, that's true. I'll have a nice soft shoe ready to throw.

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 think he was trying to communicate that Zoom was Jay.

Seems odd that he would start with "Jay" instead of "Zoom" in that instance.

I know that one of Flash's rivals from the comics was Hunter Zolomon Zoom. So my best guess is that Zoom is the Hunter Zolomon of Earth 2 (Jay showed Caitlin the Earth 1 version) and there's a whole twins separated at birth thing going on. Either that, or Zoom is from another Earth than 1 or 2.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

there's a whole twins separated at birth thing going on.

I like that idea!

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Seems odd that he would start with "Jay" instead of "Zoom" in that instance.

SRSLY! He couldn't have tapped six more letters at the start? i.e. "ZOOM IS JAY GARRICK", instead of starting with "JAY..."

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

So, who's the guy in the mask? Henry?

I kind of have the feeling that it's yet another Jay Garrick.
