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.

Netflix.

It's not a comedy, but I think it's the funniest show on TV.

Also the end of S4 is one of the saddest TV episodes I've seen lately.

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

The most recent ep of Magicians had me absolutely bawling.

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

There are 5 seasons? But I watched a couple of episodes of season 1 and drifted away meaning to get back to it and surely that was just a few months ago...

That was a typo, I meant the end of S4. Season 5 just started a couple of weeks ago.

Our wings are not tired.

It's not a comedy, but I think it's the funniest show on TV.

There are certainly a number of comedic characters. I'm further behind than you, but Eliot, the Dean, and the Antarctica dude are particularly amusing to me.

I was prepared to start watching it, but fandom was very angry about the end of the previous season.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

I thought they managed it very well. The ep itself was moving, and honestly I think it'll improve the show going forward.

Fandom will always react vigorously against anything that smells like kill your gays or bi-erasure. But what do you do when the actor whose character was previously established as bi wants to leave the show? Do you ahem around the problem, or do you deal with it head on? And does that negate everything that happened on the show previously?
