I'm 3 episodes behind on SCC. Luckily, it sounds like a really good 3 episodes, so hopefully catching up in one go won't be an issue.
Tracy: Well-- That call -- That call means you just murdered me. Mal: No, son. You murdered yourself. I just carried the bullet a while.

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.

That was one hell of a twisty episode, for sure, and delivered two big surprises (one in ep plot, one involving a long time character) that I really didn't see coming at all. And then you add in the John Henry stuff with Ellison and Cromartie-bot, and and and....
Quite the episode, really.
And also, multiple female characters with agency....

Is SCC on iTunes? I'm thinking I might try and catch up over the holiday weekend.

Art Crawl!!!
I KNEW that Riley couldn't be trusted.
Also - John Henry!!!
And okay, this is just me - but the Asian dad? Looked part-Asian so it was disconcerting that his son was 100% Asian. And also they didn't at all look alike. Maybe they cast the characters that way so that we would be suspicious of them?

I think it was the casting people using whichever decent Asian actors were available. IMDb at least says Eric Steinberg (who's half Jewish) and Eddie Shin are both of Korean heritage.
Hey, I see why Xander looked so familiar! He was Wilfred Woodruff, the vengeful Chinese Dixietocrat from the funeral episode of Pushing Daisies! Man, I loved that episode. Oh, man. Pushing Daisies. :(

Right??? ABC.com BLOWS. It took me fucking forever to watch Pushing Daisies online. And it felt like there were way more commercial breaks than in a regular show.

Cool! Oh, wait, what funeral episode? This is Pushing Daisies. I'm sure there have been a lot of funerals.

The third episode, with the twin brother of the dead funeral home dude who died in place of Chuck, and the hilarious Chinese confederate descendant who was bent on avenging his family's honour. The one with the sword fight in the morgue. And Emerson stuck in a window like Pooh. It's one of my favourites.
