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.

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.

FYI, Ian McShane was on The Daily Show last night, if folks want to catch a rerun or check online. He mentioned that he just finished a Sexy Beast sequel with Ray Winstone!

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Also, all these competing warring kingdoms are going to agree to a common communication protocol?
Why not? Iran and North Korea are both online.

Queen "I don't want to get involved in politics" is evil and sleeping with her brother.
Ian McShane told Jon Stewart that they wouldn't be getting to the incest until season two, so you might be right.

Oh, neat! Was he in the original? It's been years since I saw it; I only remember Winstone and um wassname, the scary guy.

Oh, What Alan Sepinwall says about Sciffy's new name:
I was so busy making preparations yesterday to go to the "Galactica" screening and the Sci Fi Channel upfront that followed that I never had a chance to weigh in on the channel's plans to rebrand itself as SyFy (see new logo above). The explanations I've heard from Sci Fi and NBC/Universal people range from their wanting to bring in people outside the core fanboy/fangirl audience, to the fact that Sci Fi is a name that can't be trademarked. But the new name seems both silly and too similar to the original (it's supposed to be pronounced the same, though the critics at the "BSG" screening were calling it "See-Fee," or "Sigh-Fee," or "Syeh-fay") to really bring in anyone who's currently skeptical about wanting to watch "Eureka." And the whole move smacks of the approach TV sports coverage takes, where they assume the real sports fans will watch no matter what you do to them, and therefore gear their coverage to bring in non-fans. I hate any strategy that takes the core audience for granted, but this isn't the first time it'll be tried, nor the last.
