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.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

SPACED is incredibly British. I mean, seriously - that is a train wreck waiting to happen on a massively epic scale.

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

Not to mention that the original series was a passion project with Edgar, Simon, and Jessica intimately involved with every single episode. It always seemed to me like they made it for themselves and were just nice enough to share it with the world. Why would you even consider "remaking" something like that?

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

Indeed, it's a project with the actors writing ever episode, the same guy directing all of them, and the other actors who know each other in real life(tm). (The guy who played Mike used to live with Simon Pegg, for example).

It's... just... Wrong.

Everybody should watch Spaced. It features lines about Buffy and Angel, for lord sakes, along with The X-Files, and just about every sci-fi TV series or movie you can think of. Plus it's about friends in love.

And it has a finger-gun fight.

There was a video game obsession episode that basically gave birth to Shaun of the Dead, wasn't there?

Yep. Shaun of the Dead and Hot Fuzz have many and numerous Spaced shout outs, along with the same actors etc also. Same director, also.

I'm watching a rerun of Chuck on SciFi and they just had James Hong on as a character referred to as "Lo Pan," who owns half of Chinatown. Chuck shares a universe with Big Trouble in Little China!
