Natalie is the Cylon leader, yes?
Yes. I don't know why/when she got a name, but that's what I've seen her referred to as.
I feel like BSG might be back on track.
It's about frakking time.
I just think it's rather odd that a nation that prides itself on its virility should feel compelled to strap on forty pounds of protective gear just in order to play rugby.

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.

It really feels like the show is kicking ass and taking numbers again.
I'm particularly taken with the situation of the Final Four and whom their loyalties will eventually end up with. They're so screwed, whichever way it ends up.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Fired up the TV and it was sitting on BBC America showing me the end of the Dr. Who episode with K9 and Sarah Jane. Which was whiplashy. It was just as Mickey was asking to accompany, and my mind was trying to make him a grownup Clyde. Clyde's much cooler.
So what do we know that happened to K9 since she walked off with him then?
I know, I know he's in outer space!
Where did we learn this?
As for Sarah Jane again this week, they startled me. Mr. Smith was certainly a well-hidden right hook.
Can't comment on Dr Who yet because it's a two-parter (how annoying to have a break here!) and there's no way I'll remember what happened in which ep.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.
ita, Sarah Jane opened some portal in her attic that revealed that K-9 was in space redirecting asteroids or moving something, I can't remember exactly what, but it was going to take him awhile. And that was the last we've seen of him.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
So sayeth Wikipedia:
This model of K-9 also appeared briefly in "Invasion of the Bane", the pilot episode of The Sarah Jane Adventures, where it was shown sealing off an artificially created black hole.

Ah, black hole, that's what I couldn't remember!

Thanks for the K9 info!
Having just watched Dr. Who 4x07, for an episode with an incredibly dumb plot, it was remarkably cheerful and amazingly funny--the anti-cyanide scene was golden.

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.
Who 4.07:
That was very dumb, and yet made of LOL. Plus, I love Christie, so it was funny tracking all of the references, like book titles they dropped into conversation.
And Donna sitting there during the interrogation scene, eating what might as well have been popcorn. LOL again, I say.

Doctor Who 4.07: This was my favorite episode of this series so far. Lots of laughs and great performances from the cast.
