Oh, I have a question. Have we (by we, I mean the Doctor Who audience) ever seen a companion die in the course of the show?
Boxed Set, Vol. II: "It's a Cookbook...A Cookbook!!"
A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much any other "genre" show that captures our fancy. Expect Adult Content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
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.
Thanks, Tom.
P-C, I would totally watch that !
Anne, someone mentioned noticig the same thing about the music upthread. I have to rewatch to see if I catch it.
One thing I love about the Tenth Doctor is his bubbly enthusiasm for the human race.
Yes! I loved the OK, I'm going to hug you now bit with the interim captain. So fun .
One thing I love about the Tenth Doctor is
Is he so different from the Ninth Doctor in that aspect? Nine shared that sentiment pretty highly, from what I recall. Perhaps not so ebulliently, though.
Anne, I really liked that moment too.
The Ninth Doctor was not so much with the hugging. All the Doctors I am familiar with (which would be Three, Four, Nine, and Ten) mention how fond they are of humans now and again.
In unrelated news, F,C, M:
Jack Skellington, Captain Jack Sparrow, Captain Jack Harkness?
F Harkness, C Sparrow, M Skellington. (And handwave the whole skeleton-anatomy thing.)
You should have Captain Jack Aubrey in there for the Capt Jack hat trick.
I'm having trouble getting past that whole skeleton-anatomy thing, m'self, but personality wise it would have to be
F Harkness, C Sparrow, M Skellington.
for me, too. Much as I adore Captain Jack, I have trouble imagining him marrying. And Sparrow's a lovely, lovely character, but he'd need a week or two in a bath (and probably on antibiotics) before I'd want to touch him.

Yes, I think that's canon; it explains why he spends so much time amongst them. I just like the forms the enthusiasm takes with Doctor 10, like the hugging thing. (Actually even funnier if you've seen "Casanova", where the actor played David T's right-hand man).
t sits in the "Still excited about being in the middle of the Bad Wolf two-parter" corner
t pouts about there being Who out there I'm not seeing yet.
Yes, I know I could get it.
