Doesn't matter that we took him off that boat, Shepherd, it's the place he's going to live from now on.

Boxed Set, Vol. V: Just a Hint of Denial and a Dash of Retcon  

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.

Art Crawl!!!

They showed it in the middle.

It was nice and ominous plus the Master looks extra creepy with bleached blond hair.

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

Wow, that was depressing. Now I'm watching The Graham Norton Show with Tennant. I am really going to miss him as The Doctor.

I, to wish we'd had more than one season of Eccelston, and still more of Tennant.

I'll give the new guy a chance, but am not optomistic.

All is well that ends in pizza.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Are they really going to kill Doctor Who? They can't do that!

What? They do that all the time. They are the DO THAT show.

They kill The Doctor so often that they might as well call him "Kenny."

They kill The Doctor so often that when they do a fake out death, people say, "Oh? Time to change Doctors already?"

Eta: In mid season. In mid episode.

They kill The Doctor so often, cats applaud.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

They kill the Doctor so often, he thinks Buffy is an amateur at being dead.

You do realize Doctor Who has been on the air since before David Tennant was born, don't you?

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I thought Mansquito would be funny, but it was mostly just gross.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"

I'll give the new guy a chance, but am not optomistic.

I felt that way about Tennant before he started. And Billie Piper, who I was 'blah' about, given that she was a third-rate pop star without much acting experience at the time.

But my ultimate experience with Doctor Who casting was Catherine Tate. I hate her comedy so much that I have to leave the room when her sketch show comes on the TV. I was so upset when they cast her - I thought I was going to have to stop watching Doctor Who. Within two episodes I was totally sold on her as Donna. I laughed at her rambling Essex-girl rants. I was touched at the end of the Library episode. I cried when she forgot.

In short, I trust this show on casting. Bring on Matt Smith!

hwæt

They had a really annoying "gadget, gadget" robot in Water of Mars, and they made me love in him the end, too!
