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 did hear a rumor that Virtuality is being shopped around for international funding

Will have to watch Eureka later. Boo.

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.

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

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.

“Not dead yet!”

Well, that left it with the women pretty much the only ones standing.

It was an interesting fifth ep. Not sure exactly how I feel about it, as a whole, although individual performances were spectacular.

I have to say, I am just in awe of the job Peter Capaldi (Frobisher) did. What a magnificent piece of acting in all five episodes. Sorry that we really didn't get more of Lois in this one, but I loved Bridget sticking it to the PM.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

It wasn't until I watched the Declassified that I realized (because they state it outright) that Peter Capaldi was the father in the DH Pompei episode!
