Jessica, I apologise unreservedly - I did feel defensive about Due South's right to be part of the thread being questioned, but I was also amused by how defensive I felt about it. From the tone of your post, I clearly failed absolutely to convey the fact that I was taking the piss out of myself with my curmudgeon tags, and I am sincerely sorry that I came across as patronising, when I really didn't mean to. Type in haste, repent at leisure.
I'm sorry, dad. You know I would never have tried to save River's life if I had known there was a dinner party at risk.

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.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
Thank you Fay.
It's a touchy topic.

Walks into thread and notes discussion. Remembers part in unintentionally kick-starting the SPN kefuffle. Backs away slowly.

Our wings are not tired.
Torchwood 2x9: On topic for this thread! The shiny Big Gay Sex, well not really BGS, but sweet dancing anyway. That was a fun fun episode. I don't like the retcon of the families, but really not a lot of options there. Rather concerned about next week. I think I'm gonna hate it.

"What would it take to get your daughter to stop tweeting about this?"
Jericho: They just better NOT kill Mimi too.
I'm watching the first of the latest episode and I don't think it's my beautiful cake anymore. I liked it when they were trying to figure out what to do if something like that happened and you were cut off from the rest of the country. Now I get the feeling the show doesn't know if it's trying to be LOST or remaking Red Dawn. I miss first season Jake too. This guy just broods.
OTOH Mimi continues to be made of awesome.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
So I did not know this existed, and I think some of you might be interested:

The flashbacks on New Amsterdam are so interesting. I wonder why he takes a surname that suggests New York rather than some variation on his original surname.
I wonder if his daughter also had a family.
I wonder what percent of the population of New York City is descended from him.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I wasn't paying so much attention for Life of Mars, but it occurs to me that Ashes to Ashes is going to run out of period songs fairly soon. If it's before the royal wedding, they're about halfway through 1981. The only song I remember for sure is "Don't you want me" because they had her quote lyrics. That's an 81 song, but I don't recall when.
New Amsterdam: Mega tacky of him to be running around gushing about his true love in front of his son. I'm finding him dislikably callous so far, but this was more explicit than I was expecting.
