Well, my days of not taking you seriously are certainly coming to a middle.

Mal ,'Our Mrs. Reynolds'


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.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

I'm curious to see if they use that part of the story.

Damn, I hope so, as it's pretty much the whole reason I'm watching.

Okay, that and Ian McShane.

Trust my rage

how did that work when he married the king's daughter?

Well, I guess I should say that many *today* speculate. I don't think there's any direct reference in the original text. David had a bunch of wives (Bathsheba, mother of Soloman and Michal, daughter of Saul are the only two I remember off the top of my head.)

eta: Oh, and Abigail.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

According to Wikipedia, David's wives were: Michal, Ahinoam, Abigail, Maachah, Haggith, Abital, Eglah and Bathsheba.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Wow. There's a reason some biblical names are still used and some aren't.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

I dunno. I think the only reason Abigail looks less weird is because we're used to it.

Art Crawl!!!

I wondered what the smoke meant too. It was so obviously an omen of some kind.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

unfortunately, the first thing that came to mind is that there was not a new pope. I don't think that's the symbolism they were going for.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

Wow. There's a reason some biblical names are still used and some aren't.

If I ever have a daughter, I'll name her Haggith. And then I'll teach her to fight.

Isn't this one of the Cthulu?
