Are people really getting worked up over time paradoxes?
Have you met us?
Giles! I accidentally killed Spike. That's okay, right?
Buffy ,'Never Leave Me'
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 do believe in killing the messenger, you know why? Because it sends a message. ~ Damon Salvatore
i'm not getting worked up over paradoxes. they're inevitable when it comes to time travel shtuff. what i am getting worked up over is the writers changing history for no apparent reason.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
What history? The writers are saying that the TV show has separate continuity from the movies. Handwave! Poof! History is gone!
If it worked for Buffy, why not SCC?

Oh, speaking of Buffy, when we were watching Torchwood- "Adam" last night, upon first seeing Adam, Tom said, "hey, that guy looks a little like Joss Whedon. Which is entirely appropriate given that they ripped off a storyline from his show!"
I liked Jonathan better than Adam, though.

Someone noted on another board I was reading that they even added a couple shots of Adam to the credits, so they really seriously lifted from Superstar.

I live in fear that RTD's Joss fanboy-ness will result in a musical episode of Doctor Who at some point.

I just want to hear Capt. Jack break out in song at one point, after buying the DVD for "Putting It Together" and watching it over the weekend!

If he were going to do that, wouldn't he have taken the opportunity when Billie Piper was in the cast?
