'Objects In Space'


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.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

So you think that the stuff about her having handled only 3rd cases, etc - was all tacked on later?

yeah, I do. I think they must have cut out a scene and swapped it with last week's ep so something would make sense, but the overall feel of the ep was that this was originally intended to come after the pilot.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

I am ita w.r.t. Carter's role in Eureka. I fully expect him to be reinstated as sheriff by the end of the next episode. I mean, they brought Henry back and he was in freakin' prison (and then they made him Mayor!).

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

I have achieved Books 2 and 3 of Avatar!

Yay!

...now I just have to figure out when the hell I'm going to ever have any spare time ever again!

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

le nubian, I can definitely see where you got that impression. But, yeah, other parts were clearly put in to make it fit as the third episode.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The scene with Molly and tall dark and ambiguous was episode 3, because wasn't the job offer to Olivia episode 2? And the knowledge that they worked together?

Art Crawl!!!

Do we know when Eureka will be back?

That's true. I think it's mostly the stuff with John that's confusing because it's weird to have this whole random case before the funeral.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

Unspoiled speculation: Henry as Mayor could appoint Carter to something, either giving him a new permanent position, or keeping him around to be reappointed police chief. (Or what I'd like, but Na Ga Na Ha Pen - Jo is appointed Chief, and Carter gets to be assistant. )
