'Out Of Gas'
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.
Rose's mom and boyfriend make appearances somewhat often. You'll see them again in what should be your next episode ("Aliens of London" and "World War Three").
I used to dislike them both, but they grew on me.
eta: Oh yeah, and Captain Jack. He's in five (I think) season one episodes (counting two-parters as two episodes).
Mmm, Captain Jack.
There are also most defintely recurring baddies, or types of baddies, anyway.
Everytime I watch an episode of "Fringe" this season I hear Spike saying "Pacey you blind idiot" in my head, and I never even watched "Dawson's Creek".
I couldn't get to sleep last night so I watched this:
Matt Smith on The Late Show With Craig Ferguson
It was OK. I've decided Ferguson annoys me. Also, I've never seen Matt Smith out of character before - he looks like fun.
Apparently they did this elaborate song and dance involving Smith, the Dalek and other people/stuffed animals, but they were not allowed to broadcast it (copyright issues with the Dalek and BBC?) So they were all, "Maybe someone will post it on the internet nudge nudge wink wink."
can you explain it to me? I was left wondering that as well!
Sorry, Le Nubian, I was traveling much of yesterday.
The eldest daughter is called "Red" in honor of their greatest ancestor, Little Red Riding Hood. I guess the wolf in that story was actually a werewolf?
oh! I guess I had assumed that part all along. Got it.
Possibly old news but BBCA is going to air the Doctor Who special on Christmas Day.
tommy, I asked at IO9 for some 7-12 Nu Who suggestions and got these:
Dalek from series 1 is good for younger children as 'scary, but not nightmare inducing'. Plus, lots of action and a Dalek!
Aside from that... Rose, The End of the World, Aliens of London/World War Three, New Earth, Smith and Jones, The Shakespeare Code, Partners in Crime, Planet of the Ood, The Eleventh Hour, Victory of The Daleks, and Vampires of Venice would also be great younger audience choices. Personal picks out of that for me would be one of the series openers from Tennant's run - New Earth, Smith and Jones or Partners in Crime.
My daughter is 12 and Vincent and the Doctor is her favourite espisode.
Those are all good - thanks!
Now I just gotta ask my parents if they still have that 40 year old TV, and see if I have the hardware to hook my iPod up to it (MacBook Pros do not play at all with analog TVs).
