I couldn't believe it the first twenty times you told us, but it's starting to sink in now.

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.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I have it tivod, but haven't watched it yet.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

Queen "I don't want to get involved in politics" is evil and sleeping with her brother. I'm calling it now.

I like that it moves fast and the landscape keeps shifting.

Motherf***er! I'm almost finished Kings and m-video tells me times up.

Juliebird, I'm on mvideo pretty much every day when the timeout message comes on, I disconnect from the internet...or close the browser. Then, I just hop right back in. You have to scan for where you left off, but that's no biggie.

I cracked up when they said Les Nessman. And no one else got it, either?

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

I kept waiting for the punchline.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

Kings suggested a passing thought. Would a world like that really develop the internet? Of course not exactly a sociological treatise, but it really strikes me as a historical accident (and something we could easily lose) - as much a social as a technological invention. Can imagine the same technology being invented, but can't imagine it let loose the same way. Also, all these competing warring kingdoms are going to agree to a common communication protocol? Of course maybe the fragmentation is only a North American thing. In which case the British empire is still going strong, and maybe they developed the internet.

Thanks for the tip about iTunes -- I've downloaded the pilot, so I'll be able to watch today.
