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.
who appear not to have understood basic things like how the Doctor appeared in the cafe after he'd died, and decided the episode was pointless because it was 'too complicated'.

Here in the US, we had the "Doctor Who Confidential" or somesuch, in which they explained what was going on in the commercial breaks. So after the Doctor died, they explained how he was unable to regenerate because he got shot again during the regeneration. Or, you know, what River said when it happened.

Quite. Was there anything 'confusing' in the episode that wasn't explained by a character in plain English? Repeatedly, in some cases.
Would like it to be linked to the ongoing mystery about the exploding TARDIS.
Well, the Doctor did say someone was behind that, and then there was all the "Silence will fall" talk.
Huh, wow, that's surprising.
Any word on US ratings?
eta: Maybe Brits just didn't want to see Nixon?
Oh dear, what did they have? Did they have some weird thing after the teaser but before the credits??
It's like the stupid thing they had on Castle for three frelling seasons that they've only recently dropped.
1.28 million viewers on BBC America-- record high for the channel.
Last year, ratings were also down in the UK and up in the US, IIRC.
