'Out Of Gas'


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.

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

yeah, that is starting to bug that they can't do it any season.

BUT I will say, they made things tough on themselves by doing this flashforward thing this season before having the whole season plotted out. It put them in a corner. They had to fit Barry in (really made no sense and added ZERO to the ep) and had to have Felicity REALLY mad in the limo (which IMO did not fit with her mood of the rest of the ep). I thought this ep had good performances, but was a mess.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Totally agree.

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

The tone change in the limo was strange, especially after Ollie (and Felicity to some extent) talked John out of doing essentially what they're now trying to figure out how to do.

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

Orphan Black: The Hendrixes exhuming the gross decaying body of Leekie was some high comedy gold, yo.

Talking about looking away: the Robo-Maggot cheek implant thing is clearly gonna be a major plot thread this season, and while the concept of body horror is theoretically interesting, I am just beset by visceral OH MY GOD NOOOO every time they show the thing. *full body shudder*

I am unhappy with Felix and Sarah being at odds. Woe.

Always two there are, no more, no less--a master and an apprentice.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Yeah, the DH and I both went "what the" when Barry ran off at super speed. I am just not into Arrow very much anymore. I like the cast and am THRILLED that Laurel is dead, but I dunno, not feeling it.

I'm assuming the season is going to end with Ollie as mayor, because they wouldn't have dropped in that comment about him getting some ridiculously high percentage of write-in votes a few episodes back if they weren't going to kill off Mayor Mrs. Darhk and shove Ollie into the mayoral office. So that might make next season interesting. Plus next season's flashbacks HAVE to involve Russia, and that's got to be more interesting than this season's flashbacks (which I've pretty much stopped watching).

It's not like anyone really thought the title character of The Flash would be without his speed for too long, but they could at least TRY to respect spoilers, you know?
