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.

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

The "meet cute fighting monsters" scene at the end of season two seemed to show Ianto as very experienced in flirting with guys in a way that can be shrugged off if it does not take

I read that differently--I expected to see more flirt in it, but until they rolled around on the ground (i.e. Jack had broken Ianto's personal space bubble) things looked pretty neutral to me.

“Not dead yet!”

n edit: oh and I love when sister has just promised to keep his affair quite, and husband comes up and in a big affectionate booming voice says: "so I hear you've been taking it up the ass".

Not in the BBC America version. I think all we got was something along the lines of "Hey, here's the gayboy!"

Well I've been watching the free on demand, which is BBCA but is apparently uncut. (Each ep is 63 minutes with the only commercial being an extended promo for Being Human which is repeated several times per show. So I'm guessing this is the full uncut version. On the other hand it is very random when the eps show up.) The channel as opposed to on demand BBCA is not in my comcast package. I could get it but I've got a very good (read not much money) deal for internet and cable and don't want to add stuff and make in expensive.

Wow. Eureka was really stupid tonight. I guess every show of this sort needs its phantasm episode, and this was a poor example of the genre.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

Eureka was really stupid tonight

at least they didn't spend the ep repeating variations of "Under Pressure".

And I didn't hate Tess. Didn't love her like I loved Sheriff Andy, but didn't hate.

I'm just really really happy for new fanvid material.
