The King of Cups expects a picnic. But this is not his birthday!

Drusilla ,'Conversations with Dead People'


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.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

In a sense I will find it a relief to once again not want to see the Doctor naked.

Ten won me over pretty quickly--by the time he had that poolside confrontation with the Headmaster in "School Reunion," he was the Doctor to me.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Nine was just so crazy and on a razor's-edge of pain the whole time. When he smiled, it felt so highly earned.

Ten's crazy in a different way, and prone to more spontaneous grinnery.

Honestly, if I come to like Eleven as much, and then have to miss him too when it comes time for Twelve, it's just too much emotional involvement.

For values of "too much" that keep me watching, natch.

His "Let me have this one" in "The Doctor Dances" still makes me teary.

FF: So I went and calculated exactly how much energy "1 quadrillion electronvolts" is.

It's 0.00016021917 joules.

Or 0.000000038268 Calories.

It's really minuscule.

You know, I'm really sorry that we're not going to get more Ricky Jay, because he was kind of awesomely evil.

Future of Torchwood vague.
