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.

Ooh, somebody over at TWOP pointed out that Gaius son of Julius Baltar parallels Gaius Octavius Caeser son of Julius Caeser.
Also - SCC: seemed like set up for the final few episodes, didn't it?
And I seriously thought that with John Henry and Savannah we were heading for a Frankenstein's Monster and the Little Girl situation.

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

Yep. Next week is when the shit hits the fan, I hear.
And I seriously thought that with John Henry and Savannah we were heading for a Frankenstein's Monster and the Little Girl situation.
Yeah, I thought that would go to a freakier place than it did. But ha ha, the game. Oregano! Bird! I wonder what country he was thinking of. (I also loved how into it Catherine was. Tarragon! Antelope!)

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.
No, it's maybe a nod to the famous names, but not a parallel. Gaius Octavius Thurinus became known as Gaius Julius Caesar Octavianus after he was adopted by Gaius Julius Caesar.

I'm enjoying SCC a lot. And BSG. When Friday night has engaging sci-fi all is well in my world.

I've actually given up on SCC. I had three eps on my tivo, and I realized that I was watching a rerun of something else rather than watch new eps of SCC. I just didn't care. I don't know why, but it's just not there for me anymore.

Gave up on SCC many moons ago, after all these chicks from the future started showing up.

Apparently, finding a bird in your house is a portent of a death in your family. So maybe Zack hadn't died yet.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I was so not ready for that ep to end where it did - I was *sure* there was another act still to go!
Unfortunately, that also means that I completely didn't digest this ep and should probably watch it again. (Oh no. The horror.)
