Everybody plays each other. That's all anybody ever does. We play parts.

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.

Herbert Hoover vs. Mansquito?

He first saves them from starvation, and then sends in the army (led by MacArthur) to mow them down in their little mansquito tent cities.

Who: Season 4 dvds out November 18th. Bonus material includes:

Bonus material includes the Doctor Who Confidential segments noted above on the sixth disc (approx. 156 minutes), plus Audio Commentary tracks. An eight-minute long "Children in Need" 2007 charity special called "Time Crash", where the 10th Doctor (Tennant) briefly meets with the 5th Doctor (Peter Davison) immediately prior to the events of "Voyage of the Damned", is rumored to be included on this set as well, but that has NOt yet been confirmed by any studio information we've received so far (so please take it with a grain of salt).

(FYI: Press release includes episode descriptions and therefore possibly spoilery for finale. I didn't read the descriptions so cannot confirm.)

Art Crawl!!!

From the Comic Book Resources write-up of the Middleman panel at Comic Con:

Asked by someone with a British accent if there would be any international openings for the show, Rood said "There's been some talk, but let's start with the U.S. Tell your U.S. friends," and also "All the international markets like to take a wait and see to see ratings in the U.S. first."

Javier added "You know a lot of this show owes itself to earlier Doctor Who...so I really hope for a UK release."

Heh--Neil Gaiman gets asked about Doctor Who.

(I just called my Visa card to fix something, and found myself being asked if I was the Neil Gaiman. I said yes, I was. "So," said the Visa person, "Are you going to be writing an episode of Dr Who?")

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

(I just called my Visa card to fix something, and found myself being asked if I was the Neil Gaiman. I said yes, I was. "So," said the Visa person, "Are you going to be writing an episode of Dr Who?")

See, if I were having to do that job and NG called, I'd totally ask something like that, too.
