Gunn: The final score can't be rigged. I don't care how many players you grease, that last shot always comes up a question mark. But here's the thing. You never know when you're taking it. It could be when you're duking it out with the Legion of Doom, or just crossing the street deciding where to have brunch. So you just treat it like it was up to you—the world in balance—'cause you never know when it is.

'Underneath'

Boxed Set, Vol. V: Just a Hint of Denial and a Dash of Retcon  

Closed Film and TV threads

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.

"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

Based on what I saw, the Futon Critic description pretty accurately reflects the tone of the series.

oh, dear. Well, I'll give it a watch anyway. Of course it will annoy me if the show is just remakes of the british eps. Which I HATED about the American Coupling.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

part of the problem is that Captain Jack was very different on Doctor Who

I don't see either Jack as iconic though--do you?

"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

The Jack on Season 1 of Doctor Who verges on it, at least in his introductory 2-parter and the finale. But on Torchwood I mainly view him as an overly loud prop for Ianto to make out with.

I have to admit that one of my reactions was "Again? Seriously?"

But the others were all "Whee!"

Nice pause there on the Doctor's part there. You know the one I mean.

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

Again? Seriously?

Were you referring to the Daleks , or what appears to be Davros ?

Because I feel the latter is a character that has long since been played out.

The former should have been done with by now too.

I have to admit that one of my reactions was "Again? Seriously?"

Heh, whereas mine was "Yay!" But I understand your reaction as well.

Nice pause there on the Doctor's part there. You know the one I mean.

I think I know. Maybe. Or maybe you mean the other one.

Because I feel the latter is a character that has long since been played out.

I couldn't find said character in the trailer, though I had already been possibly spoiled about said character's appearance.
