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

So, the Savitar reveal wasn't surprising, right?

I feel like Cecile has a giant target on her back now.

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

Nope. Not surprisingly at all. I wish this show would surprise me with a big bad some day.

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.

I personally think they should give up on the mystery big bad. They've done it three times now and it's been underwhelming each time.

Oh, I thought S1 was fantastic. Part of that was how well Tom Cavanagh killed it as fake!Wells/Thawne.

I am like 5 eps behind in Flash, that how underwhelmed I have been this season.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

My TV viewing has declined to almost nil these days ... I usually get home between 7:00 and 7:30 ... and start falling asleep around 9:30, 10:30 at the latest.

I am officially old.

well that Arrow ep was better than many other this season, but also filler and also hated the ending scenes and also hate that the kid is back. so yeah.

caught up on iZombie and still really liking it. it may be the only CW show I carry over to next year.

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

Watching the most recent Doctor Who, and got to these lines:

Human progress isn't measured by industry. It's measured by the value that you place on a life. An unimportant life. A life without privilege.

Guess we took a nice giant step backwards today.

"The more you time travel, the less the rules apply to you."

In other words, the Flash writers have given up on having any coherent rules on how time travel works in their universe.
