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'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

Holy crap, I blinked and almost missed John Noble on this episode of Miss Fisher.

It doesn't sound that momentous now.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

So, I fired Legends of Tomorrow. I realized that I was only watching it for Leonard (and the Leonard/Mick chemistry). Once that was gone, I realized how much I disliked everyone else.

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

I'll stick with all the shows until the cross over event, and then I may fire The Flash. LoT is actually much better this season, imho.

I'm keeping up with The Flash by reading the recaps on Black Nerd Problems, which are hilarious!

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

Last week's Arrow: Exactly how many times has Oliver been presumed dead?

And I love how they toss in this character who is apparently Wolverine-lite without any explanation (unless more explanation is forthcoming in this episode).

Apparently if you're enough of a power nerd, there is nothing that cannot be flowcharted.

this character who is apparently Wolverine-lite

Who can also wheel and deal with the shifty city councilman, get the reporter to agree to back off for a month, AND score her phone number.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

He BECOMES the target, Steph.

Really, the whole thing is totally worth it for Felicity putting on the Oliver mask and growling "YOU HAVE FAILED THIS CITY."

That was AWESOME.

And...they just had a random henchman for Church who wears a helmet and grabs arrows out of the air and we're not going to talk about that at all? Okay.

So many people who shoot arrows. Any chance Prometheus is Merlyn?

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

Did I miss in a previous episode who the Boba Fett guy was with Church?

I knew Human Target was coming on and that Jessica Jobes bad cop guy was the actor, but that was really piss poor introduction.

At this point I am kinda hoping Arrow ends after this season unless it gets a lot more interesting.

My reception for last week's Flash was awful so I need to go back and watch off the website.
