Boxed Set, Vol. IV: It's always suicide-mission this, save-the-planet that.  

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.

Or is that something we'll learn next week?

Yes.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

doesn't the season finale of TW coincide with this very DW ep? Or rather, precede it by all of two minutes?

Not sure if that's really spoilery, but whitefont JIC.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Pretty much. Not sure how he got upstairs.

Was Chan-tho like Martha was back in 1913 England, the only one who knew the truth about the watch, or was she just an assistant?

I didn't get the impression that Chan-tho knew about the watch.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

quester and I are one.

You know, I actually think I can buy their handwave for leaving Jack. I feel dirty for buying into handwave. I trust we're not done with that, what with part 2.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

I'm a little confused about how the Torchwood timeline and Dr. Who coincide.

So after the end of Season One, Jack travels back in time to the late 19th Century, then pretty much just hangs out until the the 21st Century. Which means he actually has to spend a couple years avoiding himself during the '40s. *Which isn't so hard. I mean, after all, he knows where he's been. (But then again, it's Jack, and everyone has an idea where he's been.)

So obviously, he hooked up with Torchwood along the way, and this episode picks up immediately at the end of Torchwood Season One, when Jack comes back from the dead, we hear the Tardis in the distance, and Jack goes running.

Edited for minor Torchwood spoilers.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Victor, Torchwood is only now showing in the US. perhaps whitefont for the season finale info? Or is it too vague?

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I'd say it's not particularly any spoilier than knowing he shows up on Who post S1.

BBCA is showing the beginning of the Tennant doctorship, so the last episode was the one where they meet Queen Victoria and she decides to establish Torchwood. It's like living in the Doctor's universe where the timelines keep crossing!

Now I'm wondering if Jack wasn't part of Torchwood from it's inception. but if he's been on Earth for 100 years, why is his wardrobe exactly the same?

and it was good to find out who's hand that was.
