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.
On the Doctor Who form this week(season 6, ep 6):
Someone at mark Watches noted that
The Doctor says to Ganger!Doctor that he may survive on a molecular level. And then G!D says just before he zaps Ganger!Jennifer "There still may be a way out of this."
Another theory is
that G!D is downloaded into a Sonic and uploaded to the Library.
My response to the latter was
Wait! That's it! Ganger Doctor's thought patterns are put into the library, and he spends 200 years there with River, and figures out how to get them out. Then he takes the place of the real doctor and sacrifices himself in Utah. Meanwhile the newly restored River ends up with the real Doctor for the rest of the series this fall.
The Doctor
knew way too much about everything that was going to happen. How did he know exactly when and where to place the holo-phone call? And he knew enough to try and get rid of Amy and Rory beforehand. It's almost as if he'd done it all before....
Also,
and I'm assuming they'd already switched shoes by that point, but he didn't seem at all phased by Amy telling him about his death
.
Nice one, whoever called the
shoes,
by the way.
Ah, CW. Gotta keep loving your VD promo pics.
Eliza Dushku to star in a Torchwood spinoff:
Dushku has been signed to star in an online animated "motion comic" series based on Starz upcoming Torchwood: Miracle Day.
Titled Torchwood: Web of Lies, Dushku will be front and center in the short-form story, which will also have voice appearances by Torchwood stars John Barrowman as Capt. Jack Harkness and Eve Myles as Gwen Cooper. Jane Espenson, who has worked on Dollhouse, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Battlestar Galactica and Torchwood, is penning the series along with co-writer Ryan Scott.
Cferg is interviewed in this week's Galactic Watercooler podcast.
That would be podcast #273 - starts about 49 minutes in.
Someone just accused me of being offensive and pigeonholing men because I described Damon and Stefan as raping and murdering. Am I missing something?
Clearly any time a man is accused of being a rapist or a murderer, that means you're accusing all men of being rapists and murderers.
Didn't you get the memo?
So I rewatched "The Impossible Astronaut" and "Day of the Moon" last night. I'd been meaning to anyway, and it seemed like a good time.
Things I noticed:
Whatever happens to
Amy happens in the three month gap between the two episodes. Very early on in DotM she says that she's not pregnant any more, and then she sees Eye-Patch-Lady BEFORE she enters the little girl's room and is kidnapped by The Silence. Actually, my guess is that she is taken when they're fleeing the warehouse at the end of IA, because we were never really shown what happened there
.
The Silent in the White House loo instructs Amy to tell the Doctor
what he needs to know (the pregnancy) and what he must never know (that he dies/died) - and she finally did this in The Almost People
.
The Doctor
knows a whole lot more about everything than he is letting on. Well, no surprise there maybe. He also tries to get rid of Amy and Rory again at one point
.
There was more, but that's all I can remember at the moment.
How much did Wonder Woman suck? I feel really bad for Palicki.
