Buffy? I like that. That girl's so hot, she's buffy.

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.

And they're calling it: Torchwood: The New World. (From The Hollywood Reporter.) Google and found no cancellation news.

Trailer for The Walking Dead that premiered at ComicCon.

Well, it's going to be set in the US - so if that is what you meant then yes, the original version of Torchwood is gone but the same writing team is making the Starz version. It's a post-Children of Earth 10 episode series.

Well, my friend was saying "Oh, Jack's on Desperate Housewives now, so he's not doing Torchwood." Then again, my friend is far more up to date on what happens on skanky soap operas than he is SF. I think he only had any idea what happens with Torchwood because of the sex element. Though I did enjoy the look on his face when I said, "Yeah, I like Torchwood, guys kissing, good stuff."

Though he seemed to think the show failed because people where upset at the degree of guy on guy kissage.

So, completely unfamiliar with the UK viewership in general, then?

Might want to break it to him gently that American football isn't popular over there.

But! Cheerleaders! In skimpy outfits! Which is the whole point, isn't it?

He's rather aggressively "Tits, yay!", which his wife endures and I occasionally mock him for.

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

The next season of Doctor Who will be split into two parts

At the Edinburgh International Television Festival, Steven Moffat revealed that the upcoming 13-episode season of Doctor Who would be split down the middle into 7-episode spring arc and a 6-episode autumn storyline.

Moffat divulged that the break next season wouldn't be the dreaded mid-season hiatus but rather a split between two distinct stories....

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

He was on Desperate Housewives last season, and his character is dead now, so no more of that.
