Yeah, I'd be more than fine with a female Doctor but I'm firmly in the Needs To Be From Great Britain camp.

I don't think that applies if she can do a convincing UK accent, which I bet she can.

Which she has been for three seasons (as has the guy playing Felix). But I was mainly making a joke. I'm just glad somebody acknowledged her talent. I still feel Anna Torv got a raw deal on Fringe because she's never been recognized for some of the stuff she pulled off there. And Tatiana has definitely surpassed her. Still a bit weirded out that her and Jordan are a thing, but then Fee always does seem to have a bit of a thing for Alison, gay or not.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
To me it's not about the ability to do the accent. The Doctor should be from Great Britian.

Re: Teen Wolf -- When the teens were descending their way into the Asylum, why was Lydia able to cross the barrier? Isn't she, as a banshee, considered a supernatural creature? Shouldn't she have been held back with Scott and Kira?

The Doctor is from Gallifrey, though unfortunately no actual Gallifrean actors have accepted BBC's offers. If the actor can present a perfect Great British accent and is fabulous actor, the Doctor is as Great British as he or she will get.

Wayward Pines: for a show that started off so dull, it ended up being fairly interesting.

I'm afraid I gave up on it.
Tried Geeks with Drinks. The drinking game aspect seems totally superfluous, but as a game show it's okay. Frustrating in that "how did they not know that!" way, but that can be kind of rewarding.

Although the finale seems like one heck of a reboot. The just killed off the Season 1 protagonist and big bad,and froze most of the other characters we are following. I assume they will get defrosted pretty quickly if there is a season 2. I admit Pam is most interesting character in the show, and played by one of the best actors, so as long as they defrost her quickly I will give season 2 a shot if it happens. The big bad was also played by a good actor, but was not such an interesting character to me.

Defiance:
OK, Datak Tarr's redemption was pretty convincing. That was indeed some gangsta action.
