Anya, the Shopkeepers of America called. They wanted me to tell you that 'please go' just got replaced with 'have a nice day.'

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 remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

I mean, I knew he was back on Smallville, but I think it sort of fit that show and his role in it. It REALLY stands out on this one, as does the lobotomy they apparently gave Ella between seasons.

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

Yeah, Ella was hella peppy and weird this week, even for her.

Does Discovery go in Boxes set or Streaming?

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

It perfectly straddles the line, doesn't it? It's gonna be tough to talk about due to it being accessible only to folks willing to fork out for CBS All Access (or ahem it after it airs a new episode). I'm inclined to say Streaming because of spoilery/paywall issues, even though the show totally belongs in Box Set in spirit.

Honestly, I forgot we had a streaming thread...

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.

So, I'm hoping we don't have angry, sad Supergirl for too long. (I'm guessing not, based on the ending, but you never know.)

Speaking of angry, mopey superheroes, I'm sure Barry saying his time in the Speed Force allowed him to leave the bad parts of his past behind has nothing to do with everyone hating his character the last two seasons.

Also, I'm digging Danielle Panabacker rocking the tattered jeans and tank top look. I never understood why Caitlin wore super-stylish dresses and heels to do medical/lab work.

Does anyone think that is not actually Barry?

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

I was wondering about that.

The thought had not occurred to me. While the writers don't seem to mind repeatedly tapping the same well ("The villain is an evil speedster that Barry sees as a mentor!") we did just have Evil!Barry last season so I'd assume that's the real Barry.
