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.

Well, let's see what they do with it.

No need to wait, it's already terrible. Not necessarily the new material, but the 50% old clips recycled in not any unique or interesting way. I'm imagining greater right now, AIFG!

Ooh, a clip show baby! Aren't you proud, Allison?

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

Well, at least it looks like a Zoe saves the day story. She won't feel useless anymore.

Though if Carter tells Allison he'll be there with her always, no matter what, one more time, I may hurl.

I'm hoping that there is nothing at all redeeming about this episode so I can wipe it from my memory and personal canon.

PTB: if you need a product, need to give the cast and crew a break, or for whatever reason can't deliver a quality product, please forgo, make a half-hour special. or anything else but this travesty. There were some good bits, but mixed with the amount of stink, it makes for a painful experience, memory, and a strong aversion to rewatching.

Thanks, Julie. *sigh*

Why did the baby have to be born on this episode? I wanted Zoe to save the day somehow.

On top of the horrendous clippiness, there was also a hell of lot of wasted potential, what with all the memories brought up. There's a lot of wonderful stories as yet unexplored with the Henry history with Carter and Kim, Carter history with Henry and Allison and alternate timeline, Allison history with Stark and Carter, etc.

And using footage of characters we haven't seen in a while or were tragically dead without any follow-up. Wrong. Exploitative. And cheap. Take a week off next time. Yes I am peeved.
