'Bushwhacked'


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 think "Fringe" has already lost me.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

Okay, if I wasn't already burned out by Degree, I think I would have totally and utterly enjoyed that ep. The character interactions, all the different plots, the sfx (I love cgi of suns, and I have no ulterior motives regarding this footage, nuh uh). Shoot, the details of sweating and sunburns and bandages, love that stuff. (Even if I had to handwave the consequences of all that heat and steam, but the magma/lava prepared me)

My gods, I even really liked Jo and Zane. Am I to take it that was their first kiss?! If so, tres cool, I don't know why. It would explain why all their scenes together so far were innocuous.

Lexi was tolerable and didn't set me too much on edge, another bonus.

What, next week is the last for a while? Boo!

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Also, Henry is Mayor! Quite a ways to come in a short time - from Federal Prisoner to Mayor. Yah, my hands are doing a lot of waving, but I'll take it.

I'm with Ginger. I just said to Beau: "I don't really understand where this show is going."

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

Am I to take it that was their first kiss?!

nah, they were making out in Carter's place last season when Jo was supposed to be chaperoning.

I like Fringe, but i think that has a hell of a lot to do with Joshua Jackson.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I like Fringe so far.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

The asspulls hurt me on fringe. Did Pacey make a difib machine out of a boombox? What happened?

'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"

Zane was very tolerable. I wanted to slap Zoe for large portions of the show, though. Perhaps there's some Conservation of Character Likeability operating here.

Or perhaps Lexi is just not being a good influence on her. ::nods::

I called Henry being elected Mayor when he got everyone organized at the buses. And LOVED how Zoe's little lab partner called him Dr. Deacon.

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

I called Henry being elected Mayor when he got everyone organized at the buses.

Oh yes.

And LOVED how Zoe's little lab partner called him Dr. Deacon.

I thought that it was weird that they announced him as Mr. Deacon at the mayoral thing. Also, loved "Do you want to impress your constituents or your girlfriend's dad?"
