You two carried me through that war. Now I need you to carry me just a little bit further. If you can.

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.

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

And the actress who plays Jiya in Timeless as his CFO!

I watched about half the episode then stopped watching because it looked like both the Ravi and Jiya characters would turn out to be evil, which made me go, BAH. I know, I know. Actors play different roles!

Thank you, knew I recognized her but I hadn't looked her up yet.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

Vonnie, would it be set on the train or after the events of the movie?

Kiss me, my girl, before I'm sick.

Zen, from the article linked above:

For what it's worth, Deadline says the series would start "seven years after the world has become a frozen wasteland," which would put it 10 years before the movie, assuming the show acknowledges the movie's timeline at all. Which it might not: Friedman's statement about the possible series (at The Hollywood Reporter) suggest he's mostly interested in the movie's setting and its political metaphor, rather than its specific characters or story elements.

Which makes sense, because why do an adaptation of Snowpiercer without the train? And since it'd be set well before the movie, the show can be populated with a whole new set of characters, although younger versions of the characters from the film could be featured, I suppose. The only one who is sorta guaranteed to be there would be Ed Harris' train-master.

Supergirl was great this week. I love Lena.

That Flash episode felt like nothing but filler. I'm watch iZombie now.

Flash has become the show that I cook and eat dinner during while waiting for iZombie to start.

I seriously forgot Flash was on tonight. Huh. Guess I'll watch it tomorrow.

Vonnie, I guess you saw the same tweets I did this morning, because I too ran off to IMDB to find out what Friedman was working on.

I cannot believe SCC was basically ten years ago. Woe.

That's basically what I was thinking - can't do Snowpiercer without the train!

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I liked this Arrow. Chase has been a good foe. Still would like to know who the other vigilante is. And now we have the Helix founder as a mystery - lots to wrap up in 4 more eps.
