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.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I had fun with The Witcher, and there's some good fic out there, too. Lots of Jaskier/Geralt and a surprising (to me) amount of Jaskier/Yennifer. Which I'm happy about, because I enjoy her. The timeline should carry Jaskier from ~18 to ~35 or so, and they did not age up Joey Batey at all. So fandom is coming up with increasingly cracktastic reasons.

I enjoyed the first couple of seasons of Wynona Earp. I keep meaning to go back to it and catch up, but there's a lot of shiny around to distract me (cf Hamilton).

I sort of gave Warrior Nun the side eye when Netflix recommended it, but maybe I'll give it a shot.

Our wings are not tired.

I watched the first Warrior Nun last night and will continue. Potential.

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

This never occurred to me once while I was watching, and I was totes spoiled for the whole timelines thing. Ha.

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated

Warrior Nun isn't the best thing I've ever watched, and it's not my new sweeping obsession, but 4 episodes in, I finally really like the main character, Ava (I was lukewarm on her the first 2 episodes). And -- this is a fucking Netflix show in 2020, so there's no reason they can't give us flashbacks of Shotgun Mary (who I LOVE) and Shannon as actual girlfriends, damn it. I don't want hints; I want confirmation.

Tim finally got me back for every time we've watched a TV show or movie set in a coed public school (so, 99% of everything) and I ask him "Is this what public school was really like???" (Seriously, at the age of 49, I'm still fascinated by it.) Anyway, we were watching some fight scene in Warrior Nun and he asked "Is this what your all-girls' Catholic school was like?" (I told him, "God, no! ...we didn't have chain mail.")

Also 4 episodes in. Not forcing me to stay glued to the tv until I finish the series, but enjoyable. Hey, nuns kicking ass, what's not to love.

Anyone else watch Wynona Earp S4 premiere last night?

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

Yes.

Still weird. Still funny. Still has pretty people and pretty scenery.

The story-telling still doesn't make much sense, but I don't much care.

The bit that made me laugh out loud was when the sheriff said, "They look pretty cheesed!" but I initially heard "They look pretty cheesy!" - which was true.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

After I finish The Runaways I'll probably start Wynonna Earp, which I've never seen.

I'm so happy it's back. Got a nice meta laugh out of "Are you ready to go? I feel like I've been standing here for 2 years"

The worldbuilding is total bananapants but that's part of the fun!
