They've aired several eps on BBCA.
Argh. I've missed it all except the first season. Thankfully, it appears to be on Netflix.
Oh, smacked in the noggin with a 2x4 wrapped in velvet. Yeah, that's what it felt like.

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.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

Art Crawl!!!
Did they air season 2 episodes?
Because I thought that they had aired a season 1 marathon?

Last I knew, nobody in the US had aired any SJA season 2, but I might have missed it.

No, I think you're right. I'd imagine there'd be SOME noise about it here if it had aired. I mean, people chattered about Demons, and everyone was fairly clear that was going to be a bad idea going in.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
There's definitely been no airing of anything other than SJA season 1 here in the US, pisser.
I did really like Martha's actual doctor boyfriend. Another story we may never hear. Radio play!

Trust my rage
Random question - has The Doctor ever died/transformed alone before?
(I think) Strega linked a blog entry above that listed, among other things, how Ten's death was sort of a compilation of the deaths of the other Doctors. That RTD borrowed something from each of their deaths. For one, it mentioned a doctor that died alone, but I forget which one.

Two was regenerated by decree by the Time Lords (it was his sentence after the trial storyline concluded, that and being stuck on Earth with a disabled TARDIS), so he was alone.

Found that, thanks. Interesting take on things. But I disagree with his positive take on Matt Smith, at least for now.
I figured out what's really bugging me about him - his hair and forehead remind me too much of James Van Der Beek. Do not want this to become Dawson's Tardis. I doubt that will happen with Moffat, though.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
They both walked off with Captain Jack and were supposed to show up in Torchwood together. I don't think it has as much to do with them being black as it does with them being single and off pursuing the same job at the same time.
That was my thought too. And like Victor said, it's hard to date a civillian. Look at Gwen and Rhys.
The Doctor in the Cantina with Jack struck me as saying good-bye with, "Jack, its time to move on". It's also sort of poignant since all he wants is to live and Jack would likely give anything at this point to die. Either way you end up losing all the people you love.
I love the way he said good-bye to Donna. It's hard to reach your freakish potential scraping by on minimum wage, ultimately caring for your aging mother and grandfather. She's a little less trapped now. I also have fantasies of 11 hanging out with Donna at some point -- she'd never have to know as long as he kept her clear of spooky woo woo. That could be a fun episode, The Doctor moving heaven and earth to keep Donna away from weirness only to have her sleep through yet another cataclysm.

I don't think the problems of Dawson's Creek were related to Van Der Forehead's looks. Of course, I could be just more positively disposed towards him since he tortured Spencer Reid and got him hooked on dilaudid.
