Dawn: I feel safe with you. Spike: Take that back!

'First Date'


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.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

So, the temp job I'm working is scoring high school essays and one kid was responding to a prompt about whether downloading music on the internet should be legal and free. The kid uses the example " Van Gogh got paid for all those murals he painted but the public gets to enjoy them for free " to defend the downloading as 'art should be free!'.

I immediately guffaw because I think of the Dr Who episode with Vincent! Later on my table captain is reading the same essay and reads the same passage out loud for us all to boggle at and she follows this up by asking, "Do any of you follow Dr. Who?"

My table captain is awesome! And we both like Tennant better than Smith.

"What kind of magical sunshine and lollipop world do you live in? Because you need to be medicated."-SFist

That argument might have more weight if Van Gogh had painted murals. And if people were able to take home murals free of charge.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Or if posters and lithographs were free.

And of course, muralists are paid by whomever it is that commissioned the mural - so they aren't made for free.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Don't you hate it when Daleks stop by your apartment while you're out? Well, at least they leave these nice informative notes: [link]

Also, there's a contest to caption this....

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

I should hope so!

Well, apparently there were all sorts of rumors - many of them being that Matt Smith wouldn't be back. Turns out not to be true.
