Is Torchwood ep 4 the one that ran on BBCA this past Saturday. I keep getting confused about which white font I can read.
All right, yes, date and shop and hang out and go to school and save the world from unspeakable demons. You know, I wanna do girlie stuff!

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.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Last Saturday on BBCA was episode 3 -- the BBCA schedule is only about a week and a half behind the UK, so the whitefont-mingling is more promiscuous than I've ever seen it.

But people have already seen ep 4?

Sorry -- I didn't quite manage to complete my thoughts. A bunch of us are getting the UK airing from the internets (or just from being over thataway), but since they're only a week off from each other, the discussion is all confused (unlike past Who/TW seasons where one has aired 6 months earlier or so, and there are two clearly distinct periods of conversation).
That said, I know I've been squeeing all over screen without making it clear which ep I was whitefonting about -- it's marginally better than not whitefonting, but I should be more careful about that.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
I usually put in episode numbers for the whitefont, but the rule is that I'll whitefont ep 4 until this weekend.

Maybe the pre-viewers could take it to the spoiler thread? It's very confusing to have 5 or 6 people whitefonting everywhere.

If I go into the spoiler thread, I will be spoiled for lots of other things.

I don't mind it being discussed in here as long as it's clear which episode you are talking about.

I don't have a problem with the whitefont, I think the episodes are clearly labelled and I think we'll get used to the weird schedule thing sooner or later... I think I need to start bookmarking the start of the WF discussion, so that when I see the ep on BBCA, I can jump back to it.

Break it down for me: How is this different from the other whitefonting? For me it seems easier since I wouldn't have to go back as far, and can actually participate somewhat in the discussion once it gets blackfonted.
At least that was how I was thinking of it before I got the torrent hookup.
