Buffy ,'Showtime'
A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi or fantasy) 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.
Yes - are those characters changed from their orgins? Or did they have that same agency from the beginning?
ION - the books that "Human Nature" and "The Family of Blood" were based on can be read online. Supposedly you can download them too but I wasn't able to do it.
Huh - from the novel:
Dr. Smith was small and Scottish, from Aberdeen as a matter of fact, and he had a charmingly mobile face.
What a wasted opportunity to have DT use his natural accent! Or something closer to it.
And again, I think he just doesn't want so much blood on his hands. And knows that ain't gonna happen, not with the things he needs to do.
That's what moved me so much about Smith's desperate sadness at the end -- even *the Doctor* doesn't want to be this person, with the ruthlessness and the darkness just beneath the skin, but he has to be. Because the universe needs the Doctor.
OK, this is an example of why I love the character of Bernice Summerfield
Now, you may well be thinking: 'Beer? What a terrible idea. That's no solution.' I would reply that you're wrong. It's a solution of hops, barley and yeast, and it is so transcendently wonderful that I long ago made the decision to sacrifice any chance of trim thighs in favour of it.
Was Bernice Summerfield in the show?
No, only the New Adventure novels. But they ought to find a way to write her in sometime.
So fun to see Torchwood just on the air.
Oh and David Tennant is supposed to be on the Graham Norton show afterwards.
What I want to know is how Jack got to Wales in 200whatever when we last saw him on the satellite thousands of years in the future, watching the TARDIS disappear?
Exactly.
There are lots of things I want to know. That among them, of course. I still don't buy that there's no connection between Gwen and Gwyneth in Unquiet Dead
