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.
Solomon is a pretty standard Jewish name. They are playing to a Jewish stereotype. (Not on purpose I'm sure , but someone should have noticed )
Or if you were only asking about he disability: Disabled = Grotesque = Villain is a very old meme in pulp fiction. Phantom of the Opera and Dick Tracey are both well known examples.
2) Queen Nerfiti chooses to have a romance with the white big game hunter in 1902 Africa rather than go back to rule her people?
Were they actually in Africa, or did they convince the Doctor to let them hang with the dinos?
Also, seemed less romantic than fun times with some not so bright, but quite fit, man candy. Which, you know. Rupert Graves. Who can blame her?
I seem to be in the minority but I thought this week's Who was terrible. Sloppy plotting, annoying (not in a good way) and unfunny robots - even if they were voiced by Mitchell and Webb, who I normally rather like - perfunctory background to the new "companions" and uncharacteristic behaviour. The Doctor sends the bad guy off to his death without a second thought? What was that all about?!
Williams and Son were about the only bright spots.
I'm willing to chalk it up to "one for the kids", but next time they need a stronger story to go with the cool title.
I loved the robots. I was very sad to see the robots die.
I somehow hadn't noticed they were being voiced by Mitchell and Webb. That explains a lot about my robot reaction.
Amy was awesome.
Hey, how old were Rory and Amy at the end of the first Eleven episode?
Did anyone else think 'Hack and Slash' from Reboot during this episode?
The Doctor sends the bad guy off to his death without a second thought? What was that all about?!
The bad guy had committed genocide. And was trying to kill te doctor and enslave Nerfiti and kill the other companions. And could have backed down at any time. This Doctor has a temper. It is quite in character for him to kill in response to things along those lines. "Oncoming Storm"
Plus, he got a take back on the Dalek genocide, so he's got numbers to make up.
Ten killed a bad guy in his first outing, as I recall. Plus the Doctor gave Solomon several chances to do right, which he did not take.
Okay, I know I'm always the one saying "Why is that whitefonted/???" but I swear tif any aired fact deserved whitefonting, it's this Teen Wolf one--how long was it before you realised you hadn't seen Greenberg and were never going to?
