Don't belong. Dangerous, like you. Can't be controlled. Can't be trusted. Everyone could just go on without me and not have to worry. People could be what they wanted to be. Could be with the people they wanted. Live simple. No secrets.

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.

I don't think he passed psych. I thought it was asked if he'd be let back on the floor if he did, and she said he wouldn't--she could have been predicting the future, or rigging the results.

I don't think he intended to come back. Ron Livingston's character had to talk him back into something.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

OK, I am convinced that I had that all wrong. I was really trying to pay close attention, too.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Gotta agree with the commenter who mentioned BG 1980 not being on the list as a HUGE omission.

From everything I've heard it had to have been worse than Enterprise.

I haven't trusted science since I saw the film "Flubber."

It was. I've seen both.

Enterprise was the only one on the list that I've seen, and although I didn't like it, it seems like an odd inclusion, especially at #1. Killed the franchise? Really? Did JJ Abrams get the memo? It's not like there was anywhere else left to boldly go on TV any time soon.

Besides, once Manny Coto got on board, Enterprise had some decent episodes. I think its inclusion on that list is just knee-jerk.

He isn't wrong about the theme song, though.
