Just tryin' a little spicy talk.

Tara ,'Get It Done'


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.

It does, though I am thinking this might be it for a while. I don't know why. I just do. Well, maybe because the big coup is over.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

Well, Richard Hatch had a good meaty run.

I should say, I enjoyed Zarek as a character - good riddance within the frame of the story.

Right - Zarek was a very interesting character - and Richard Hatch played him really well.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

Doesn't it feel like a fire sale on deaths of named characters, though?

I was about to say "I don't expect them to stop at Wash and Book", except I don't think they've reached that level, yet. When one of the final Five go, or Lee (again and for realz) or Adama or Roslin bite it (or Starbuck, again). But, I guess I've read the interviews, whatnot, and expected the redshirts to start being replaced with regular cast members.

I really truly thought Roslin was toast last ep (before the previews spoiled it) and thought there was a chance that Adama was toast for this ep and that Roslin would indeed unleash holy helly on his behalf.

But, no, I'm personally not getting the "everything must go" vibe.

Loved this ep!

All of Tyrol's crawling through the infrastructure had me shouting "Jeffries tubes!!" at the screen. I figured it was RDM's little tribute to Star Trek, although being BSG, the tubes were really tight and a bitch to get through.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Dee, Feliz, Zarek, Laird, Skulls (he did buy it, right?), the Quorum (I count them as one), and maybe others whose names I didn't know because I'm bad at it since the final eps started is what gave me that feeling. But, yeah, they can't keep going at this rate.

And yet - unless Sam is dead they didn't kill one Cylon, did they?

Some revolution...

So did the ex-Chief find damage to the jump drive? Will upgrading to Cylon FTL fix that, or is it too late?

I thought it was damage to the ship's hull. I'm not sure that anything can fix it and if so - it probably means that the ship should be in dry dock while being fixed. (Whatever dry dock means for a space ship.)
