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.

But I guess I'm too afeared of Adama.

No shit. I seriously was thinking, "Oh my god, you are all in SO MUCH TROUBLE," when he first bellowed in the CIC. He was enraged like I have never seen. EJO rocks my world. If they had all laid their guns down and said, "My bad. We're cool. All good," I would not have been surprised. However, would have made for a less kick-ass episode.

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

Apparently, the Super!Lana thing is now in the comics so it's canon? Or is it some weird aberration?

As noted before, that's actually Lois, and in a separate coninuity, but ... there's actually a long tradition in the comics of Lana having super powers, most notably as Insect Queen, where she had a bee's torso and belonged to the Legion of Superheroes. It was a thing.

So ... "Battlestar." "Battlestar rocked ...

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Re: whitefont: Ex-boyfriend, surely, by now, yes?

I don't believe either Adama or Tigh will die next week, but I will cherish forever the image of the two of them waiting to kill or be killed in that hanger deck, guns ablaze.

And I just love Adama and Roslin making out in front of everyone. Good for them - they've earned it.

Well, yeah - current as in during the webisodes is what I meant!

Totally on both counts.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

I sincerely thought the ep would end with Roslin buying it. I had real fear. I still do. But that's for next week.

Tyrol, I love you so much again.

Don't touch Helo and his cute hair!

Jessica, yes - I believe that Gaeta broke up with Hoshi in web. 10 - because Gaeta knew that he was going to be going against the Admiral and didn't want to drag Hoshi into it.

Or at least - that's how I understood it.

No hurting the Fighting Agathons at all!

Loved Lee's reaction to his dad macking on the President (and how glad am I that his hair wasn't all foofy for this ep! It was getting rather big for a while there, and having that coupled with an action sequence would have been beyond ridiculous).

So, did I miss something, where did Starbuck's new purpose in life come from? Or, if not purpose, then feeling great about herself.


JenP - Jan 30, 2009 7:30:45 pm PST #6532 of 30001

I think just the action of the day - nothing like attempting to quash a rebellion to put a little spring in your step.

I agree - Starbuck thrives on action.

ION, read this over at TWOP:

"Thursday, February 5 at 4:00pm, a 60 second trailer of Torchwood’s highly anticipated third season, Torchwood: Children of Earth, will be available to U.S. media outlets by BBC AMERICA."

I assume that is 4 pm Eastern.
