Yeah. He's my hero.

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.

The more I learn, the more I realize how little I know.

SG-1 showing now is Window of Opportunity. So much fun.

The "Bad Example" running gag still makes me chortle.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

That's still my favorite ep of SG-1.

Artie needs his butt kicked. I would've happily yanked that sword out of him.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

I think they did more than identify it as Dodgson, unless my brain did the translation completely transparently. Maybe they used "Alice in Wonderland."

I am certain that it was previously identified as "Lewis Carroll's" mirror. First or second episode. I don't think it was spoken -- I think it was a label that went by quickly but was visible to the viewer.

Agreed, Jon - I'm certain I heard (or saw) "Lewis Carroll's" mirror, because I remember thinking, wouldn't it be cataloged under his real name?

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

Mega-Shark vs. Giant Octopus is on Saturday on Sci-Fi. My husband's out of town. Who's up for a watch-and-post?

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

Harrick, is it? - making it clear he was selectively choosing which humans were good or useful enough to turn), I kept thinking "This is not a sustainable system! What the hell are you planning to eat?"

exactly!

And Annie, oh Annie. For almost the entire episode I was so frustated and annoyed by her cowering and snivelling. I suppose I have been thoroughly spoiled by Buffy and her descendants, because I wanted Annie to speak up, or pick up something heavy to whack people with it. Crying on the floor, crying on the stairway, crying on the couch... none of those things help at all

I'm so with you.

On the other hand, her final confrontation with Owen was so spot-on I practically cheered at the TV. ('We have your scent now, and can track you to the ends of the earth...')

It was excellent, but it really seemed to come out of nowhere. Even the aside about the army of vampires didn't feel real.

Eureka: Really enjoying this season. I like Tess, and I see more chemistry between her and Carter than Carter and Allison ever.

yeah, I stil don't really like her. maybe I've been reading too much Stark/Carter. I also really thought it was unrealistic that they would make out in the lobby.

Why did that other ghost fall in love with Annie?

I don't really know.

The child-abuse storyline didn't bother me, considering there wasn't any child abuse actually happening. Did it occur to no one that possibly this screeching drunken woman was lying?

It actually seemed pretty realistic to me. pedophiles are something that people get really irrational about.

I'm pretty sure that in the preview I saw the shark jump out of the water and chomp down a helicopter, and I'm pretty sure I need to see that again.

Giant tentacles lashing through the air! Plus, I'm getting it on the HD feed, so I'll be able to watch it on Eastern time.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Oh Tentacles. For a second there I thought..
