'Our Mrs. Reynolds'
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.
For the most part I've been kind of meh on the Sarah Jane adventures, though I'm liking the current alt-world one.
I think the half-hour format encourages the overuse of short-cut cliches and occasional truly awful dialog. At least that is what I'd like to blame in on.
Theodosia: Bwah!
SJA: what sort of car does Sarah Jane drive? (It's so cute! And matches my ipod nano in color.)
Wikipedia says it's a Nissan Figaro.
Dr Who 4x06: Dear Lord, people. How much genocide-related heart-breaking are you going to dump on the guy? So...they gonna spin off a third show? Maybe her and Captain John? A lot of running, a lot of heavy breathing.
I thought for sure that his too much like me meant that he doesn't have any more regenerations and that's why she doesn't. Didn't look like it was a regeneration that brought her back--more a side effect of terraforming (which would be a handy-assed thing to happen, as long as it doesn't go all Pet Sematary), leaving me back to the thought that he's running low on resets and his song may indeed be ending.
I don't want to have those thoughts.
DW406: I haven't watched yet, but side effect of terraforming? Like, as in The Search For Spock? Should I be very afraid?
really, ita? i thought (DW406) it looked a lot like when the Doctor was regenerating.
I would definitely watch a Jenny spin-off. she was adorable.
Who 4x06: I dunno, the FX looked like the gases from the "sigh" to me.
DW4x06 It looked like heart-of-the-tardis burbs to me, but she didn't regenerate, just came back to life. So maybe a combo of the Timelord genetics and some residual vortex energy from the tardis made it possible for the terraforming to "breathe" new life into her?
I definitely didn't want her to regenerate, because that actress was just too damned cute, and if they'd kept the character but switched bodies, I would have been very sad.
Did anyone else think that maybe the old man was one of the original colonists who programmed the myth of war into everyone?
Also, the Hath were rather adorable.
Who 4.06
She definitely didn't regenerate, and I've seen about eight people make the Spock reference already. It's amusing.
DW4x06 I was half-expecting for the Hath and humans to be transformed somehow by the terraforming gases, since they were there at ground zero. Now that I think about it, I was expecting a quasi re-enactment of The Dark Crystal ending, without the split souls thingy.
Except that would mean that the Doctor and Rose and Martha would've been changed.
Ah well.
