Now you can luxuriate in a nice jail cell, but if your hand touches metal, I swear by my pretty flowered bonnet, I will end you.

Mal ,'Our Mrs. Reynolds'


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.

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.

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

The former should have been done with by now too.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

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.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

That was pretty much made of awesome from where I'm standing. But I don't know Davros from Adam (any Adam you wish to put in the role).

Love is stronger than death and harder than sorrow. Those who practice it are fierce like the light of stars traveling eons to pierce the night.

My reaction (to the DW mid-season trailer): Oh, fuck, yeah.

And I hate the Daleks . I hate Davros worse. But if we've got to put up with that to have a dramatic return of Rose, who appears to be kicking arse and taking names, why I'll put up with it.

Our wings are not tired.

My reaction is the same as WindSparrow. Also, love for my pink spoilerfont remains strong.

Well...

(Uses clips up to the most recent UK episode, but US viewers wouldn't be spoiled.)

He starts to emerge at 0:47-0:52.

Oh, I thought that was just another Dalek. But I get you now.

Oh, that looks fantastic!

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

I do, and I agree.

Oh, man. I'm so excited for the next eps. I, too, appreciate that Rose is coming back fierce, with a big gun, and what sounds like some vital information. OF DOOM!
