River ,'Jaynestown'


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'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

It's definitely not explicitly contradicted. (Not that I've spent time thinking about this.)

I am pretty much 50-50 on it. I can easily believe either situation.

We don't know for sure. We do know that something happened before the stopwatch conversation, and they were comfortable enough to get right to it instead of hemming and hawing.

Art Crawl!!!

Man, that was a heartbreaking episode of Torchwood and this is in spite of the very sucky BBCA feed that kept cutting out - for example - during Jonah's speech with his mum. (I am rerecording the 2 am airing. I hope that the feed improves.)

Just wrenching.

Doctor Who 4.1: I enjoyed that a lot. Loved the friendly little Adipose babies. The scene where the Doctor and Donna finally catch up with one another was a classic. And ROSE!!! I knew she was going to show up at some point, but I'm glad they got her in so early.

I'm now more optimistic that Donna isn't going to get on my nerves as much as I'd feared.

When does S4 start in the States?

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Not soon enough, if you ask me. Tho' I gather it's getting advertised as showing soon-ish on SciFi, so I have hopes.

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

I'm now more optimistic that Donna isn't going to get on my nerves as much as I'd feared.

Yeah, she has her moments, but they don't seem any worse than some of Rose's more obnoxious moments .

Torchwood 2.13: well, that was sad. Good use of James Marsters though. Am I alone in thinking Owen might turn up again? I mean, he's already dead, who knows what the radiation actually did to him. He could be a nebulous conciousness bobbing about in Cardiff.

Mind you, it does mean that Torchwood now has a medical vacancy again. I wonder if Martha will be free after the coming series of Doctor Who.. .?

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

When does S4 start in the States?

April 18, IIRC

Fiona, in the Torchwood Declassified, Burn Gorman made a joke about how you don't actually see what happens to Owen, so maybe he escaped into the sewers and became King of the Weevils.

Dana, yes, I saw that. But I already had my suspicions beforehand!
