Wash: Well, I wash my hands of it. It's a hopeless case. I'll read a nice poem at the funeral. Something with imagery. Zoe: You could lock the door and keep the power-hungry maniac at bay. Wash: Oh, no, I'm starting to like this poetry idea now. Here lies my beloved Zoe, my autumn flower, somewhat less attractive now she's all corpsified and gross...

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.

OK, since just got a new Doctor, here is a hypothetical about the NEXT Doctor if you feel like answering it.

If you could cast anyone you want as the Doctor, but within the shows budget, who you pick? Within show's budget means no Idris Elba, no Judy Dench, only people whose market price matches those they have already cast. But any race and gender. Only if you feel so inclined

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Damian Lewis.

Punishingly Intricate

ooh, the first person I thought of was Olivia Coleman (although I couldn't remember her name) who was in Broadchurch w/ David Tennant, amongst other things. I think she'd be strong and, also, hilarious!

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

Sarah Parrish would be great too. She was Beatrice to Damian Lewis' Benedick.

Maria Doyle Kennedy who played Mrs. S. in Orphan Black. She does strong and funny so well.

Compassionately intolerant

Sarah Parrish

And the giant Jilli font in the first Donna Noble episode!

Maria Doyle Kennedy

And Catherine in the Tudors! I think she's fabulous.

Olivia Coleman

She's in a cute little video about NOT being tapped for Dr. Who because, after all, she's in everything.

I'd choose Aiden Gillen though his time of GoT might put him over-budget.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.

OMG Claudia Black! I would watch Doctor Who every day and twice on Sundays if Claudia Black were the Doctor!

I'm sure he'd be great, but he's too high-profile as well.
