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 usually don't watch DW on BBCA, but (1) Hubs is quite the fan of the show, and (2) I'm quite the fan of Kylie Minogue. So I saw the ep. And got the special added bonus of Richard from Keeping Up Appearances as the tour guide! I also felt a Poseidon vibe.
TW BBCA -- killing two regulars, very bold move! And Rhys learned a bit about what his wife really does, which may change his perspective next season.
One question that's been bubbling up in my mind for a bit is, and we may find out the answer soon, is how does TW choose its members? Is five a magic number? Does TW look for specific skills, or who's available, or some mix? (In other words, for example, did Jack approach Owen because the Doctor Position was open? Or because Owen was recruitable?)
Okay, so we don't actually know that there is going to be a season 3? Or - there's going to be a season three but it's going to be more like SJA?
Oh and I read a rumor that not only
Martha
but also
Mickey
would be joining TW. I assume that something that happens in season 4 of Who makes that even a possibility.

I get the feeling Jack just makes shit up as he goes. Like if the team was totally full up, but he found somebody he liked and/or thought was useful somehow he'd be all "All right, uh...can you make blintzes? We need a blintz-maker. Show up on Monday with your best recipe."
That's kind of what I thought. Torchwood could run just fine without a butler, unless you define the role as more of a majordomo who keeps the place running administratively. Because I don't see Jack as the admin type, which means Ianto really runs things. Kind of like Col. Blake and Radar, except Ianto probably has an autopen handy.

Everyone needs an Alfred.
I've seen a couple of ads on BBCA for a show called "Primeval" - does anyone know anything about that show?
What's the word on "Scarlet"? The fact that it's being promoted as "from the Director of Smallville and Supernatural" doesn't exactly inspire confidence.
It's Doctor Who, cross bred with The A-Team and Torchwood. The non-Big Gay Sex bits of Torchwood.
I know Suela watches Primeval.
