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.

"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

It occurred to me that the McKay who did all that is going to be rather disappointed that his efforts to send Sheppard back will just result in his timeline diverging from the one that Sheppard returns to, and he'll live out the rest of his life with all the crappy stuff that motivated him having still happened.

Well, at least Keller will be on alert that she needs to be VERY CAREFUL handling patients with the anti-Wraith disease because hidden effects can show up later.

I'm presuming that everything Sheppard learned from Rodney goes into his debriefing -- it isn't like he had instant amnesia or anything. Even if it might be a touch awkward to learn that you had a love affair in the alternate future with somebody you just met, learning that you might be able to avoid a fatal (and PREVENTABLE) disease would be really useful information....

Torchwood: Hmmm, I think that the Winchester boys need to take a trip to Cardiff to cleanse the Hub.

Just got to the halfway point of tonight's Torchwood, and, you know, this Burn Gorman fella's a pretty good actor.

So, I was thinking how this latest episode reminded me a bit of Killed by Death at the end, when I realized that the Torchwood crew doesn't really know what they are up against - Cardiff is built on Hellmouth, isn't it? They just have weevils instead of vamps as the dominant scary thing population.

Which only makes me SO want a Buffy/Torchwood x-over that will never happen.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

The rift is sort of the opposite of a hellmouth... can you imagine a place with BOTH?

Like, I dunno... Dayton?

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

Unimpressed by SGA. It was a nice try, but...meh.

And if that's the last we get of SCC (as I sadly suspect it will be), I will be PISSED with a capital PISSED.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

I just caught up with SCC. Man, I actually really like that show.

It's totally doomed.
