Oh God, Pix, that would explain some fandom reactions I've seen.
Buffy: How bored were you last year? Giles: I watched 'Passions' with Spike. Let us never speak of it.
'Beneath You'
Boxed Set, Vol. V: Just a Hint of Denial and a Dash of Retcon
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.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix
I think he's the doctor who actually caused the destruction of the Time Lords
Yeah, that was my immediate thought, with the way that Hurt was trying to justify himself.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"
I noticed that Great Intelligence mentioned the Valeyard in the list of names that the Doctor has been known by. Too obvious?

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
That incarnation appeared during the Colin Baker years, so a return would probably surprise everyone who's not a die-hard Who fan.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"
True. I still feel like it's a pretty good misdirect, though. Moffat likes making up new crapstuff.
ETA: Hee. I was attempting a strike-through on 'crap'. But I like it as a whole new word.

Compassionately intolerant
Crapstuff is totally trending with me.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Aw, poor Scottie! TW3 trailer: [link] Tagline is "this might hurt."

I worried something like that might be in the works given that production moved to L.A.
