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.

Cisco's hair is especially fabulous this season. I wish I could get that kind of shape.

I was just noticing that! Although I don't so much watch the show as read the BNP recaps with photos

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

Holy crap was the villain of the week obnoxious.

I liked her. It was a fun episode. Iris was hilarious at the church ("I love this coffin. Is that cedar?) Even the Thinker has a sense of humor.

Harry seems even more cranky and dickish than usual.

Well, he did just get kicked out of his home by his own daughter.

...why are the Martians all black? I mean, maybe they're just imitating J'onn? But still.

Maybe there were a couple of white guy Martians in the background.

Wally's hair is weird this season. I apparently have more than one hair-related thought about the cast's hair.

I love how Caitlin's wardrobe has changed, now that she's not just the strait-laced serious scientist. No more pencil skirts for Caitlin.

I look at it as a precedent having been set that lets them hire more people of color as a default.

Fair point. Hard to complain about that. Plus, as DX said, anything that brings Carl Lumbly in is totally worth it.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

I'm not even sure I could tell you what happened on Arrow tonight because I was mesmerized by Felicity's glorious hair.

Also, Michael Emerson, yay!

Barry is THE WORST at having a secret identity.

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

I am like a season behind on Arrow and have dropped Supergirl, but for some reason, still watching The Flash. So far, this season feels more light-hearted and silly, and I am enjoying it much more than last season. The Plastic dude, whatever his name is, made me laugh a lot, even though he gave me some unfortunate Jim Carrey circa Mask flashbacks. And they're letting Candace Patton be funny from time to time, which she is GREAT at.

In the comics, Ralph Dibney is Elongated Man (who is different from Plastic Man, who is a whole other DC character, which is why the snark about "Plastic Man" being a shitty name was funny). Not that "Elongated Man" is a better name.
