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.
I hear you, Calli, the caper was not as caper-y as I wanted. You might be right about Leverage raising expectations. I did enjoy the Doctor figuring out what he had chosen to forget and giving Madame K his number.
There was a dearth of capering. I really only got that feeling right at the outset when they first escaped the bank's security team (and a little bit when they got through the floor). The rest of the running about felt more like a Minotaur story.
What I found interesting about the Doctor figuring out the identity of the Architect is how he started by latching onto the one thing he knew about the Architect, that he hated him. (As soon as he started on that line, I thought "Ah. It's him.")
What I like about their use of it this time around, compared to (say) Amy's Choice, is that it went almost entirely unremarked upon. Where Eleven finished Amy's Choice all "MAH PAIN", Twelve is more "Yeah, I hate myself, so what? I hate everybody."
I can't be the only one who thought, "Ah, the Teller is in the Incentive Program"?
The Strain:
I loved that the kid retrieved
Morleys
brand cigarettes. And that Our Heroes are squabbling their way through the sewers, because, no, they really only just met and they're not a cohesive bunch at all.
Other than that -- leaving a 10yo kid in charge of the old woman?
Wait, was there a new DW this week? It wasn't on my iTunes for some reason.

I wish I'd thought that! Nice.

That's what happens when you try to put a memory worm on your iTunes.
You know, we'd never have to worry about being spoiled if we all had memory worms.
Hey, Gotham premieres tonight -- would we discuss it here? I assume yes, since most of the comic-book TV shows are here.
I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought the Doctor should have recruited the Leverage crew for this heist.
Plus, the Doctor using it to blow up the archery target in Robot of Sherwood was very funny.
My companion and I yelled out loud in that moment, "It doesn't work on WOOD!"
