'Objects In Space'


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!

So I just got spoiled as to what went down in the Smallville finale from the Tubey Awards. It was partly what I suspected, but...WTF? Oh, show. Why are you still on?

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

I don't think spoiled is the right word, P-C, since the finale aired a long time ago. You just found out what happened in it.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

They killed off Jimmy Fucking Olsen!

There needs to be another word for personal spoilage, then. Because I use "spoil" for any spoiler regardless of whether the thing has aired or not.

They killed off Jimmy Fucking Olsen!

But apparently he wasn't actually Jimmy Olsen? Or something?

Art Crawl!!!

I think that his little cousin will grow up to be canonic Jimmy Olson.

I thought it was his brother. A relative, regardless, will be the real deal. I wonder how long ago they thought that one up.

Great! I'd forgotten - I was going to listen. Thanks for the link.

Just found out that they're releasing Farscape as a "complete series megaset" (that doesn't seem to include Peacekeeper Wars, though).

Also, Ben Browder and Claudia Black will be at Comic-Con.
