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.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Heather H at Salon seems to think "Virtuality" is a good pilot, but not a great stand alone movie.

Yeah, that's what I'm hearing, but I guess that's too bad since it's going to be shown as a stand-alone movie, eh?

EPIC FAIL TIVO!!! When I have a season pass for Doctor Who on SciFi with three thumbs up, a season pass for Torchwood (three thumbs as well) AND a season pass for the Sarah Jane Chronicles, you DAMN WELL SHOULD HAVE AT LEAST SUGGESTED Doctor Who on BBCA!!!!!!!

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

The TiVo Suggestions just aren't what they used to be -- they've gotten a whole lot less brilliant, seriously.

Or perhaps it's because I've already discovered all the really good shows....

I think that you're right. I've noticed that it keeps suggesting the same things, and not suggesting new shows or revivals of old things that I might like. I am thinking about clearing all of my thumbs and starting over to see if that helps.

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

I can't complain about my TiVo's recommendations. But it does grab me Doctor Who, as well as Magnum PI and Quincy ME.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"

As I do not have BBCAmerica(it's on a higher tier of cable than we wish to pay for), I hav to rely on friends with DVD burners.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Yeah, I'm miffed that I don't get BBCA. I would use it!
