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.

OK, I'm almost ready to say "get it over with already!" Almost. Because I'm tearing up!

Best. Doctor. Ever.

All is well that ends in pizza.
Anyone else get the feeling the Doctor's regeneration seemed more like a Highlander quickening this time out?

I dunno, but I still love how mere clothing seems to contain the shiny radiance of regeneration, now with added TARDIS combustability. I was also really hoping for some comment about how the suit was far too small for 11.

So, did the Master slip off during the commercial break or did I miss something?
Jury's definitely still out on Matt Smith (especially after seeing the season sneak peak which left me a bit...underwhelmed).

I got the feeling that the Master and the President were locked in a deathgrip when the link was broken. I could be mistaken.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
We somehow missed the sneak peek! Did it air during Demons? I have to say we were only paying very slight attention to that show.
End of Time: Like a lot of the big special episodes, this one left me a little cold, but the scene where Ten realizes that it's Wilf who knocks four times pretty much redeemed it for me. I loved that.
What exactly happened to the Master? Did he and the President just sort of cancel each other out?

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
Did anyone else catch that it was Midshipman Frame, from "Voyage of the Damned," that the Doctor hooked Jack up with? Awesome. Indeed, I dug on the entire Star Wars Cantina filled with Doctor Who-aliens past. Also, terribly loved the Jessica Hynes cameo. It felt more emotional than the Rose cameo, really. Oh, and Mickey and Martha for the win. Don't even care if it was mostly out of nowhere.
Oh, yes. It was flawed, but I ultimately found the flaws forgivable. Glad we only have to wait a few months for the new season.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
Once again, I agree with Victor. I kind of loved the self indulgent bits.
Victor I totally missed that that was Frame.
