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 when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I'm beginning to suspect Lexie is there to make us not pray for Zane's demise.

She's just making me pray that whichever one of them gets zapped first is standing close enough to the other to take him or her out with the resultant explosion/shrapnel/swarm of deadly nannites/cloud of radioactive patchouli.

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

I thought that way back at the beginning when Jack stumbled into Eureka a big deal was made out of the idea that the town was a Big Fat Secret, its location was secret, everything that happened there had to be secret, and that everyone who stayed there had to contribute through a scientific or service-oriented perspective.

exactly. i seem to remember there being a big deal about whether Jack could even work there.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

I actually think Zane and Zoe have some chemistry

I'm not the only one! I went to a Peter/Claire place when I saw them together. Is it because they're higher up on the billing than the other two, and so they were given the meat of the scenes, and together, or is there some ulterior jailbait --I mean Big Brother-- set up going on? Not only does Zane (and Lexxi) eat up Jo's screentime, but Zane moves in on Jo's sibling relationship with Zoe?

I'm actually okay with that. So long as he never has another scene with Jo, and so long as Jo isn't given much screentime, they can't make her do too many stoopid things. Although as a deputy, her decided lack of presence during all these incidents IS stupid.

All is well that ends in pizza.

i seem to remember there being a big deal about whether Jack could even work there.

OTOH, he was being considered for a very important position in the community.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

I'm prepared for some hand-waving that the ultra-secret status of the town was revoked some time after Jack arrived.

vanguard of the socialist Hollywood liberal homosexualist agenda

I am enjoying trying to figure out the overarching mystery that Thorne is involved in.

My most recent theory is that it has something to do with the death of her husband.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

I think that makes a lot of sense. One thing I really like about Thorne is that while she's being set up as an antagonist, she's not pinging me as a 'bad guy.' I'm actually interested in what she's trying to do/find out. I was pleasantly surprised that she was as forthcoming as she was with information about the underground installation.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Me too - she's not evil, just agenda-driven. She's pinging me a bit like S4 Scorpius in that sense, actually.

Just as long as we never have to see her vomit, I'm OK with that.

move out and draw fire

So we just started watching S3 of BSG. Let me say that I'm basically spoiled for the big end-of-season revelations but my DH is not.

DH just decided that Tigh is a cylon, as of episode 3.

His basic argument is that there is no redeeming human characteristic about Tigh.

But by that logic, everybody on this damn show is a cylon.

Signed, no longer wanting the humans to survive.
