I'm thinking about buying something very expensive. Maybe an antelope.

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.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

UNIT's been at least mentioned before on New Who. Maybe in, um, "The Sound of Drums"?

All the way back to the first season, when "alien experts" were beign gathered, and then killed by the Slitheen. Nine says somethign like, "Hey! I know them. They're from UNIT. Good people."

But how would Ianto look in one of their red caps? And would that be innovative or avant garde?

Hmmm. I'd say more retro. But then, one imagines Jack has ideas the rest of us can't fathom.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Except for Blink, which still hasn't finished creeping me the fuck out.

Let me know if that effect ever wears off. It's been months, and I still feel uneasy going past a churchyard with angel statuary.

UNIT's been at least mentioned before on New Who.

I think they were in "The Christmas Invasion" as well.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Ack! Scared of statuary still!

(And on a personal note, what's worse is that the SO has taken a really gorgeous photograph of a stone praying angel in a garden. It's an unbelievably lovely shot, with the angel taking up most of the frame, but out of focus, and a rose in the foreground, in focus, with the petals just gracing the edge of the angel's wing. It was shot at the hospital where my grandmother died. Totally wrought with emotion, and a lovely piece of artwork. And now totally scary!)

Letting Owen accept a date offer from Tosh before being offed was just mean. Almost Tim-level mean.

Oh, and my Tivo cut out then, too. What happened in the last 45 seconds?

Really did like the Owen interaction with Martha.

'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"

And I still want a weeping angel statue for my garden!

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

WANT. (spoileriffic for a pilot for a series which may or may not come to pass)

Just reading the pilot picspam made me so, so happy. The conversation about the Hogwarts houses had me howling with laughter.
