How did your brain even learn human speech? I'm just so curious.

Wash ,'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.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

I think, if you look really hard, you might be able to find a few places on your side of the bay.

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

I don't eat pork, so I cannot delight in these pork buns Emerson loves so much!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

That episode made me crave bao something fierce. And I am no longer in a location that really specializes in ethnic food.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Well, to be fair, I live in Oakland, so it requires more of a trek.

Dude! There's plenty of good dim sum in the East Bay.

'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"

PD: had I only known, I would have sent out for Chinese food prior to watching. Yes, well, the description for the episode included enough details that I could have predicted it, but I'm kind of distracted this week.

It's kind of cool to have a show that has so much emphasis on food, you know?

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

In the terms of roll call, I'm one of the real spoiler avoidant, but I know that Dr. Who casting spoiler. So you don't have to step carefully around me, which is normally the case. (Which I love you all for, let me just take this opportunity to say.)

I think that for the next F2F, we need to have Food Poker.

In the terms of roll call, I'm one of the real spoiler avoidant, but I know that Dr. Who casting spoiler. So you don't have to step carefully around me, which is normally the case.

That's sweet Liese, but there's no need to have a roll call, as casting spoilers should be discussed in Spoilers Lite. I think that we're treading on dangerous ground by deciding that since "everyone" knows, it's not a spoiler. (and in this case, I still don't know and am trying to keep it that way).

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

and in this case, I still don't know and am trying to keep it that way).

I'm with you on this one, Vortex. Lalalalalala....happily unspoiled....

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Well, if I'm reading it right, this would fall under Summer Casting Rules which would mean it could be discussed in this thread and only in this thread after four weeks (after the announcement, since it's well after four weeks after the end of the season).

However, it's made complicated by the fact that this is a group thread. The original rules were assuming a single show thread, back in Buffy/Angel days.

Our wings are not tired.

Discussing in other threads seems a reasonable plan to protect the virginity of Vortex and ChiKat.
