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.

What is even happening?

Consuela, both Hulu and Sci-Fi have the episode up on their websites if you want to see the part you missed (which you should, because ouch!).

And I'll stay quiet about Ed's death unless you want some info... he's in Bali right now getting marrried.

CFerg, did you ever post about this? I peeked in the spoiler thread, but didn't find anything. I'm trying not to be too spoiled for anything, so I may have just missed it.

If it's a non-spoiler, i.e. if Ed has left the show, I'm pretty sure you can post about that in this thread. The episode in which he died already aired, so you won't be spoiling anything.

That's great news about the comic. The only TV-show based comic I've read is Buffy season 8. I had to stop because I read the issues too quickly, so it always feels like I'm only getting the teaser. Keep us updated on when the comic will come out.

Also, good for Ed. Getting married in Bali! How romantic is that?

i recently ahemmed an old show called Young Americans. it was a semi-spinoff of Dawson's Creek. annnnnnnnnyway.

Oh my goodness! You've just made a friend of mine incredibly happy. She's been wanting to watch that again for years and would look for it occasionally. I just emailed to let her know it is out there in ahem-land. Awesome.

I do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore

it's not the best quality ever, but it's totally watchable. actually looks like a VHS rip, which would make sense considering the year. let me know if she can't find it and i'll either direct you exactly or upload.

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

In light of our conversation about the accuracy of the science, I was amused/dismayed to see them screw up the Kelvin numbers. -273 is 0 kelvin in celsius, not fahrenheit. (yes, I am that much of a geek that I went back to check that the freezer was in fahrenheit. I suppose you could handwave that he changed it to celsius in the conversion, tho)
