Anyone else get the feeling the Doctor's regeneration seemed more like a Highlander quickening this time out?
Little bit. And frankly, not impressed by the little I saw of the new doctor (although I did enjoy the 'still not ginger' bit)
Mmm. Wife soup. I must've done good.

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.

Oh, may have been in the white font, but I loved that he called Donna his best friend, and so offhandedly.

From my online roving:
A positive review which I liked because I wondered if I was the only one thinking of Dead Romance. When I wasn't thinking of A Hole in the Fucking World, anyway. It also includes a long list of all the references to past episodes.
This notes that the finale highlights both Davies' strengths and weaknesses.
And this is a pithier summary of the Davies era.

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.
Why are we still white-fonting?
Seska, what I heard about the Weeping Angels was that they were to hold a pose *like* them, not become them.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".
OK, OK, I will give it another go. It was mostly Maysa's post which convinced me it might not have been totally out of character.
Did someone post a link here to a sneakpeak of the 5th season, or was it in another place? I can't remember now, nor find it.
Nevermind, here it is: [link]
Also, Geronimo? That's the catch phrase for the next season? Why, sunshine, why?

Did anyone caught this [link] and maybe has a record of it? I'd love to listen to it.

I thought this was a very buffista Twitter battle. Neil Patrick Harris vs. John Barrowman for Gay of the Decade. [link]
If you find Barrowman (Team_Barrowman) on Twitter, there are some really cute pictures of him with his dogs. It looks like JB didn't really get Twitter before but is now having fun with it.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
