Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

I'll wait to talk Dr Who until everyone has caught up.

All is well that ends in pizza.

Is at work, wondering and waiting for reaction to the opening of the Dr. Who finale.

I'll be on the road while the east coast W&Ps!

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

That was just all kinds of wonderful. I adore how equisitely simple (in final execution) the plan was. I know I read that some found it a bit lame, but I adored it. I also adored the simplicity of beating the alien to death with a baseball bat in Signs. I love how it goes against the grain of popular entertainment where there are guns and explosions and large quantities of violence to save the day. Instead there is unity in prayer, in meditation.

Mrs. Saxon was fantastically nuts, although I do wish she had just a little bit more to do. I mean, we finally get to hear why she broke, but I think it would have served her (if not the story) better if we'd found out sooner that she'd seen the end of the universe and went mad.

Poor Doctor, how much he has lost, again, but bravo for Martha, and bravo for Jack, may you be less broody in the future.

I had totally forgotten the end, is the Tardis the "iceberg"?!

If it's not the berg it's going down with the ship!

The Doctor weeping with the Master in his arms, Martha the heroine, Jack all dirty and jolly at the same time and WTF face of boe?

It will be hard to wait for the next season.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

So, well, Jack really really can't die, then. But either of them are more than free to come back whenever.

I, too, loved the plan. That was a Hell of a 3-part-er.

The Master was so Voldemort it's not even funny. Which made me read Mrs. Saxon as Bellatrix .

I don't think the TARDIS is the iceberg, Julie, as the Titanic didn't ram the iceberg.

And !!!!x eleventy for Jack as the Face of Bo. Now I need to go back and re-watch that last New New York episode. It does joss my own personal continuity, but see above, re: !!!!

Yeah, I still just like Martha ok. I don't love her. But she needs to sit down with Sarah Jane and some tea. Or possibly Scotch. Whichever.

eta: Yes! fucked up, complicated emotions about the death of the Master from the Doctor. I bought it (in all its slashy glory).

Was this the first BSG flashback showing, or have there been others?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

Aww, see, I ADORE Martha. Love her like whoa, and about a million times more than Rose (which made the whole nonstop pining thing this season kind of @@). And I still agree with you on tea and/or scotch with SJ, just because it would be an awesome conversation.

And in my mind, Jack/Bo will forever be ogling SA's ass.

Woe to the fucking wicked.

I think the pining is a lot of what got in my way with Martha.

I can see that -- but I was mostly thinking of the Doctor's pining when I said it, which bothered me even more than hers, so I didn't lay it at her door quite as much. If that makes sense. Great Doctor, awesome companion, could've used another season for them to finally work together like I wanted them to all along.

Oh. I see. Yes, I can see that.

Very much could have used another season. It'd be nice to keep a stable cast for more than a season. I know, I know: British show.
