'Serenity'
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.
An awesome remixed DS9 credit set the BSG opening credit theme: [link]
Seeing Alexander Siddig's name there made me laugh because I had so much trouble telling Siddig and James Callis apart at the beginning. Not only did they look similar, but they were both Dr. B!
I still don't get why Adam's insertion into Gwen's memories would require her to forget someone she's spent a substantial portion of every day with since long before she became involved with Torchwood. I suspect he erased Rhys from her mind just to be sadistic.
He probably didn't realize that she had a home life.
Richard Dawkins is going to guest star on Doctor Who next season!
(The article is just about the most incoherently written thing ever, but I figured I should provide a link if I was reporting news.)
[eta that there are some spoilers towards the end]
Does the article mention who Richard Dawkins is married to?
Naturally:
He didn't have the nerve to ask the professor to slip on a latex mask, it seems: Dawkins will appear as himself. "His wife, [the actress] Lalla Ward, used to be a companion of the Doctor. The gays loved her."
(The quote is RTD.)
It does, Tom.
(And the spoiler at the end made me go HA! Also, a note to the 'phobic: Said spoiler is alluded to in the title of the episode in question, so if you're quite sensitive, you'll get unwanted hints from the likes of episode lists for part of the season. Forewarned, etc.)
Non-spoilery bit from Jessica's link:
Davies was born not too far from the birthplace of Tommy Cooper in South Wales, and seems to have borrowed his chuckle from that melancholy-jolly comic.
It's probably just coincidence, but interesting parallel with Gwen Cooper.
But I don't think there's anything out of character in him being more than a bit tired of watching other people dying for/because of him.
Eh, I'm not sold on his epiphany. (Dear god, we're using that word again!) It's tough to tell if he is sincere or just trying to survive with his head still attached to his body.
I'm hoping we don't hear too much of Starbuck shrieking. It hurts my ears.
But didn't you hear, Maria? THEY'RE GOING THE WRONG WAY!!!!!!!
(I actually find the shrieking appropriately unsettling, but I totally understand your reaction.)
But didn't you hear, Maria? THEY'RE GOING THE WRONG WAY!!!!!!!
I think even the Cylons heard. And I'm not talking about Sam, Tigh, Tori or the Chief.
