I would definitely like to see some interaction between Abbie and Katrina. They could be great friends. Especially if the writers avoid the cliche jealousy reaction. This is why I prefer thriller type stories, there's enough going on to avoid using soap opera shtick for plot complications.
Dawn: Is that supposed to scare me? Spike: Little tremble wouldn't hurt.
'The Killer In Me'
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.

Very much seconded.

Last week's: utterly agree that Leverage has spoiled me on heist scenarios.
This week so far: I'm feeling smug that I was right about the Doctor being completely irrational about soldiers. I think this may be a THING for the season (if not THE thing).

I think I love Danny. Him calling the Doctor on his shit was wonderful.
Also, I just realized that the teacher that the Doctor thought Clara was dating is a Matt Smith clone, sorta (bow tie, shaggy hair, etc.).

I was so glad that this was intentional because I rewound the previews for this episode half a dozen times last week to prove to myself that it wasn't actually Matt Smith.

I sort of felt they were both being assholes.

Oh, yes. I was kind of hoping that Clara would kick them both out the TARDIS door.
One other thing that freaked me out for RL reasons was when the policeman approached the two boys who were hanging out by the gate. Just... instant massive anxiety and dread.

OK. I'll give you that, but the Doctor has fewer excuses. I really think this "soldier" thing is something that's brewing for the season.

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.

Yeah, but see... I think that really works for Clara.

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

YES.
I think Twelve is supposed to come off as a charming asshole but he's just an asshole. He has moments where I like him but not many. I'm really enjoying Clara this season, though.
