Remember that sex we were planning to have, ever again?

Zoe ,'Our Mrs. Reynolds'


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.

the hardest to learn / was the least complicated

I caught up with Roswell enough to watch it in real time, so my big question (pretty much for Dana, I think) is -- Malex handprint: yes or no? I feel like there's a better than 50% chance at yes. (I'm assuming the showrunners aren't stupid enough to kill their gay, so I'm ignoring that as a possibility entirely and just trying to figure out how exactly Alex will be saved. Because I *also* want to see Sanders in a tux. Who wouldn't?)

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

I think that narratively speaking, it makes perfect sense, and with this show, that is absolutely no guarantee that it will actually happen. But a fangirl can hope and try to manifest the handprint she wants to see in the world.

And I'm always running a little behind on WWDITS, but the way the setup of the whole dinner worked, and the big secret being that Guillermo was less worried about living with vampires and more worried about being gay, was beautifully done.

Fair, but I also wasn't expecting a proposal last week, so maybe they're on a roll here.

Right on.

Once again posting pretty much for Dana: half an hour until the RNM finale! Tim hasn't watched any of it, and said "Is the series finale a bad place to jump in?" (Definite sarcasm, btw.) I said "Well, at least when you go back to season 1, you'll know everyone's ultimate fate, and that's pretty soothing." I also told him he could only ask me stuff during the commercials or he ran the risk of a stabbing.

I genuinely hope they get rid of Clyde in the cold open, because he is a goddamn tool and I have no use for him, and there's too much other shit to wrap up. I've seen spoilery promo photos, so I'm just ready to get to the good stuff.

Naturally I was traveling back from DragonCon and couldn't watch it live. I'll get it in the morning.

Not spoilery: Clyde continues to be a tool for every moment he's onscreen.

And I'll let you see the rest unspoiled.

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

We finished watching The Expanse tonight. The show eventually grew on me, but I wasn't really fond of how they ended it. Also, why do the whole B storyline with the girl bringing her brother back from the dead without actually connecting it to the rest of the story somehow.

I really really liked the first three episodes of Andor ! It's written by Tony Gilroy, who wrote Rogue One, the Bourne movies, and... The Cutting Edge. !!! Anyway it's very well done and so far after three episodes there are no space wizards.

I am struggling with The Rings of Power, as they are playing very fast and loose with both the timeline and the mythology. But it is very pretty.

Our wings are not tired.

It is so important in the books, but they just don't go that far in the series. That was a huge disappointment for me. I was watching with DH and a friend and had to deal with controlling myself from saying ....but but but in the books... nonstop.
