Tesla's point to the kids about them not being ready to take over the world was really a case of the pot calling the kettle black. I mean, yes, he's a brilliant Mad Scientist and your go-to guy if you need a death ray built out of an ipod and some Christmas lights, but I'm amazed he was able to get it together and organize underlings well enough to run that clinic for several months, never mind take over the reins of global civilization for the next few centuries.
Pretty cool except for the part where I was really terrified and now my knees are all dizzy.

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.

Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

True that. I just assumed he hired a really good manager.

This pre-Waters of Mars Doctor Who special is making me nostalgic for CE's Doctor. And Rose, for that matter.
CE really did knock it out of the park, didn't he?

I really wish CE had done more than one season.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
Ooh! SyFy is showing Mansquito tonight! Now I can finally see how ridiculous it is.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Whoo! The Doctor is going megalomaniac on BBC America, plus they've shown End of Time trailers, so some of the guests are out in the open for discussion.

The sum-up program just made me have the WORST crying fit I can remember in a long stretch - namely, what Donna's final fate was. I did like seeing RTD say that was an ultimate tragedy. I also loved that he characterized the relationship between the Doctor and Donna was one of best mates.

Man, megalomaniac Doctor is scary. But he doesn't get away with it - because he still doesn't get humans, does he?

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Are they really going to kill Doctor Who? They can't do that!

All is well that ends in pizza.
Waits with glee for everyone to finish watching Waters of Mars.
I hope they show the preview for the next two specials.
