I don't fancy spending the next month trying to get librarian out of the carpet.

Spike ,'Chosen'


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.

Art Crawl!!!

Well, remember when the Baltarites were being confronted by that marine and Head!Six held Baltar up when he didn't want to stand up to the guy?

That may have been the last time we saw the Head! characters. (Unless Head!Baltar was more recent.)

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

It was either then or when Baltar was speaking to his groupies that Head!Six withdrew (which, before or after the moment you speak of, I don't know).

We're very stretchy. - Connie Neil

Speaking of TWOP, I thought this was pretty good (from the end of Jacob's recaplet):

So Brother John Cavil gives a fairly moving and convincing speech for why he's so pissed off, and you finally get Cavil: he's basically like Pinocchio going, "Really? Lederhosen? Fuckin' forever?" Only instead of singing a little song about it and kicking Ellen in her shapely Gepetto shins, he knowingly and nastily:

Destroyed utterly the life and civilizations on twelve planets, burnt the knowledge of their creators out of his brothers and sisters, killed Daniel and boxed Three, wiped and boxed the Final Five just to make sure they ended up in the holocaust, had a day-long conversation with Chief about how he wasn't a Cylon even though he totally was, tried his best to kill off the idea of God(s) Himself(s), plucked out his father's eyeball, and fucked his own mother while she was in mortal mode on New Caprica. Moral of story? You Never Fuck With Pinocchio. Welcome to the last act of the last season of the very best TV show of all time, and here's your Dramamine.

Wow, Kathy, I almost posted those exact same two paragraphs, I kid you not! I've been trying to keep my Jacob-groupiness on the down-low.

The only thing he missed was adding "bitch" before that final period.

Trust my rage

The whole Tigh/Ellen/cavil thing, and that Cavil knew about it occurred to me Sunday morning while I was in church. cavil is one twisted dude.

Heh, yeah, that hilariously wrong thought did not go unthunk in my twisted, little brain. Ascension/Resurrection, Tomato/Tomahto...

Did we talk about the possibility that the Head! characters are Daniel?

Intriguing!

Thanks, 0!

And yes, that is brilliant speculation.
