Well, it's just good to know that when the chips are down and things look grim you'll feed off the girl who loves you to save your own ass!

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.

Totally unspoiled prediction: Caitlin is gonna bite a big one at the end of the season. They haven't done much with her all season other than being kidnapped by Zoom, and if Henry is gonna stick around to provide medical support, she may turn out to be redundant. With Wally, Jesse and Wells, STAR LAB is getting kinda crowded. And these folks do love their Big Death.

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

See, I think it's gonna be Henry. As soon as he said he was going to be around all the time I thought "you're a dead man walking."

Also, not just Kevin Smith, but Zack Stentz wrote it, which brought me back to the old Andromeda thread at WX (he used to drop by), and that made me think of ita.

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.

If Caitlin dies, I'd be disappointed, but not shocked.

They can't kill of both Barry's parents, can they? That just seems unnecessary, especially right after he finally finds peace with his mother's death.

Zack Stentz

I looked him up on IMDb, and wow, he wrote for both TSCC and Fringe, two of my favourite shows. The Fringe episodes he wrote were what I'd consider some of the best episodes of the series (Momentum Deferred -- the S2 opener; Northwest Passage, the gorgeous elegiac ep with Peter investigating things with Martha Plimpton's sheriff; and Jacksonville, which might be my fave episode of that entire series.)

If he stays on to write more for The Flash, I won't complain.

So, when Cisco joked about iZombie, he meant the actual actor from iZombie!! (Everybody knew that, I'm sure. I haven't been paying attention.)

Plus, Jay Mewes, too. The stunt casting is stunty! Kevin Smith will never abandon his boy. Sniff.

I didn't actually realize that -- cool!

The Zombie, playing a zombie. Muy Meta.

For all the good stuff in the episode, there was one thing that bugged the crap out of me. Why were they using flashlights (more meta) in the morgue. Why not just turn on the lights. It's not like there wasn't any power. There was plenty of tasteful accent lighting, not to mention at least one working computer.

Supergirl is moving from CBS to the CW, which probably means huge budget cuts.
