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.

Motherland: Fort Salem was very, very weird. It takes "high concept" to the next level. It ought to be campy fun, but it's all taken way, way, way too seriously.

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

See, to me it sounded too much like a Buffy spin-off called The Initiative.

WHAT IF at the Salem Witch Trials, instead of killing all the witches, the government made a deal to let the witches be their army, and fight battles with their powerful magics? And WHAT IF this lasted for 350 years, to present day America, so now that every young woman who is a witch is magically drafted into the army, sent to a military academy, and is trained to fight in a global war on terror against evil witches?

Hard pass.

If only there were more network executives like you, DX.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Holy crap holy crap casting spoilers for The Mandalorian S2: So psyched. (You will be spoiled by that URL)

Giving it further thought, I wonder if we're going to see Sabine as well, considering what they're up to post-RoTJ.

I recently saw a comment from Aaron Ashmore about the trailer for Vagrant Queen making him wonder if they'd made another season of Killjoys without telling him about it.

"I'm useless alone." // "We're all useless alone. It's a good thing you're not alone."

Is it the same creative team?

No, looks to be no connection.
