'Not Fade Away'


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

What history? The writers are saying that the TV show has separate continuity from the movies. Handwave! Poof! History is gone!

sorry, but them saying the movies and tv are separate entities doesn't make it so to me. especially when they keep bringing in so much stuff that was established in T2.

it's possible i'm a little too invested in Terminator continuity. i guess that's what happens when you've seen a movie about 250 times(no exaggeration. my bff, when i was younger, and i were obsessed with this movie and Eddie Furlong. i can quote everything except the spanish at this point.)

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)

Oh, man! I wanted to see some full front face shots with his glasses on (you can see he's wearing them as he's peering into the dog cages).

Mmm... John Barrowman in glasses...

I'm not even a dog person and that got me.

I liked the parallel here between Cameron and Sarah: both of them have the opportunity to help someone for no benefit to themselves, and Cameron fails that test. And yet, dancing.

Yep. Who said it above? I'm joining in on thinking that the way they're going to prevent Skynet is to humanize Cameron. After her Velveteen Rabbit moment, though, where will they take the story?

Hey, look! A bandwagon! Hope I'm not late.

Just started watching Torchwood (Comcast On Demand has all five eps thus far. Yay On Demand!)

I am very impressed with this show. There's a lot that British TV seems to handle so much more elegantly than American TV ever would, and it's not bad s/f to boot.

Could go on and on 'bout specific eps, but I'd probably be repeating 500 posts worth of stuff. So...I won't.

Wish I could see the first season, though.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

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

Replace "fear" with "hope" and Matt is me!

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

Oh look, turns out Dana is me instead.

Ah, magnetic media! How quaint.

Seriously, thanks for the offer, but when our last VCR died we went all DVD. We no longer have the ability to play tapes.

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

Could go on and on 'bout specific eps, but I'd probably be repeating 500 posts worth of stuff. So...I won't.

Actually, since we're off schedule with the UK airings, the conversations a bit disjointed, so I'd personally LOVE IT if someone w/could spark some discussion to what's aired in the US.
