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.

Aaron Douglas (Chief Tyrol) has a new show which is premiering on CBS this summer. (And is a police drama so that's 4 former BSGers whose new shows are police related.)

Wait - no, The Cleaner isn't a cop show.

And Tahmoh is playing a cop but it isn't a cop show.

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

Did anyone watch I Am Omega? I recorded much of it, but am not feeling very enthusiastic about the ten minutes I've seen so far. Judgement on it?

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Haven't seen it, but since it's a ScFy movie, I suspect your MD time would be better served watching Iron Chef America, sadly.

Unless Mansquito shows up, of course.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I watched a minute or so of it. The scene was set in a parking garage, apparently after an attack by sunlight-allergic zombies, and Mark D was still having trouble convincing some woman that they shouldn't split up.

I hope she didn't give the zombies heartburn.

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

I watched 10 minutes near the end and there was an extended rape-threatening scene that was very unpleasant, so I switched off. I have no idea what happened.

Huh? What, is it that the zombies don't want your brains, but something...else? Or is it like 28 Days Later where apparently survivors of an epic crisis can't go a whole month (well...if the month happens to February) without a shag? I swear, in that movie, when Christopher Eccleston went into his whole "My men have needs" speech, I was thinking "Try saltpeter, you git!" (yeah - I know Snopes debunked it, but if he thinks his men are that desperate after a month...)

Trust my rage

I finally saw the BSG finale (in HD, which was cool because our Tivo isn't HD) and I enjoyed it. yeah, I see everyone's points about just walking into the wild and hoping to love, but I liked the symbolism of starting new and fresh. Remember how ugly New Caprica was?

I guess, though, I would have liked a little more info on the "angels", although I doubt there was any way to satisfactorily answer that.

The angels are obviously Vorlons.

Jane E. interviewed by the Boston Globe. I don't think it's spoilery for Caprica: [link]
