You know, it's funny. We went to war never looking to come back, but it's the real world I couldn't survive.

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.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

I'm all done with season one of Torchwood and I've ahemmed the first five episodes of season two. But I refuse to watch until I see the last three episodes of DW season three. I'm such a completist. I should have the last disc of DW in the mail, today, though. Yay!

Aaron Douglas says that there are no hidden meanings in the Last Supper picture.

But - was this the blog post you meant, Jessica?

Trust my rage

We actually had a well-known director opt out of the running for one of the last nine shows because they're a fan and would rather be surprised then learn all the secrets in advance!

This is how you know you work on a cool show. (from Verheiden's blog)

(although for a significantly less lame reason than "genetic sunburn" or whatever the flobotunum was that Willow used to explain her condition).

It was Tara, wasn't it?

You're probably right. I couldn't remember who it was that told her, but the stupidness of the what stayed with me. They pulled a lot of those seasons six and seven (eye of Botox, Schroedinger's Giles, etc.) - something potentially intriguing that's either dropped or gets a banal explanation. I expect that from JJ Abrahms; from Joss, NSM (though I suppose it could have been a Marti trait).
