Oh, at first it was confusing. Just the idea of computers was like — whoa! I'm eleven hundred years old! I had trouble adjusting to the idea of Lutherans.

Boxed Set, Vol. VI: I am not a number, I am a free thread!

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.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

So much good stuff last night. Of course Constantine knows Lucifer Morningstar. Birds of Prey! Black Lightning! The Spectre! And of course, Barry-90. Best moment ever was the clip of Barry-90 and Tina from the original series that flashed (heh) through Barry-90's thoughts as he sacrificed himself to save the universe.

All is well that ends in pizza.

I believe that the last time I read Superman, Johnathan Kent (the baby one) jumps in age.

I love that they got Wentworth Miller to be the snarky voice of the Waverider.

I have no idea what the actual comics canon is behind this (and I'm not looking until the damn thing is over in January), but it's sure suuuuuuper-convenient that all of these Paragons are more or less in one place or easily accessible.

Having Leonard on Mick's Waverider instead of Gideon was awesome. Now that all that's left of humanity is at the Vanishing Point, does Snart show up? Because Snart and Lex would be awesomer.

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

So if one wanted to jump into the Crisis crossovers after not watching any DC TV for a couple of years, where is a good place to start?

Thrive to spite them

I wish Wentworth Miller would do more but I think he backed off of acting because of his mental health. I am not 100% sure about that though

This season's Flash and Arrow mostly. That's where most of the lead up is. Both shows did short arcs (Arrow because it's ending soon, and Flash because they finally smartened up about the expiration dates on Big Bads). Harbinger comes out of Arrow, and Pariah comes out of Flash.

Cool, thanks!
