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.
IO9 ranks the regenerations.
his hair and forehead remind me too much of James Van Der Beek. Do not want this to become Dawson's Tardis
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.

Or as amyth likes to call him, "the useless Van Der Beek."
Now I'm pondering a Fringe/DW crossover. I think Ten and Walter would have really gotten along. And he might have stolen Astrid for a Companion.

Oh, I agree (Dawson's Forehead jokes aside), but it was still disturbing.
Did you know that Brian Cox voiced the Elder Ood in the finale?
Yeah, I caught that in the credits and thought it awesome.
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.
That's such a great idea! I sort of have a weird feeling that Donna, out of all the RTD companions, might come back because I saw an interview with Steven Moffat somewhere online where he just gushed about how great Donna/Catherine Tate was.
Is RTD really correct in assuming that future writers and showrunners won't want to use any of the old cast? (With Donna maybe being the exception.)
So, I'm 9 minutes into this "Demons" thing, and so far it seems to be about the kid being shirtless.

Well, I wouldn't say forever, but one assumes that there's no plans for the immediate future (except, obviously, the characters that live on Torchwood and SJA.) But, considering Doctor Who's longevity, Lord knows what'll come around again. I mean, Sarah Jane popped back up after, what, more than 20 years?
I'm personally still holding out for Ace to return.

Yeah if only the kid could act. The rest of the cast can act; in finding someone for the starring role can did they really need to prioritize looking good shirtless over acting ability; I mean is the UK really short of 17 years olds who can do both? I supposed given the script quality there was no point in bothering, but then why bother hiring competent people for supporting roles?
