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.

Daniel, you reminded me of one of the nagging thoughts I had during the ep: why
did the fortune-teller want to lure marks in to have their time/universe get altered. She seemed so adamant and passionate about it, but I still can't fathom her angle. What's her benefit?
The other query I had was why
if Rose could show up at the exact right place at the exact right time to whisper Bad Wolf into Donna's ear, then how come they couldn't send Donna to the exact place and time, and why did it have to be Donna killing herself to accomplish this? Why not Rose going and blowing a giant pothole in the road. As awesome as Donna giving all the she had was, seeing that Rose had the ability to be there also makes me question why the f*** why?
Juliebird, I figured that
Rose was a transmission from the parallel universe (rather like the Doctor was in her universe when they said their goodbyes), and thus only able to transport herself from place to place. Though: did she just tell UNIT what to do with the time machine or was she actually at the controls...? 'Cos that would spoil my theory.
Anyway.
I thought that the
fortune teller definitely had a Hidden Agenda, and was working for somebody, in order to get Donna away from the Doctor. That would probably make more sense than just tricking random people to feed her humungous pet beetle
.
Fiona, I suspect that (DW series 4 trailers & speculation)
the Daleks are behind the bug, the fortune teller, and that something they have done has caused the darkness. Something very bad. Poor Doctor, he really hateses the Daleks.
Fear Itself reviews. They liked last week's best, but frustratingly had nothing to say about the acting.
Are we going to be 4 weeks behind the UK after skipping 4th of July?
Want a Battlestar Galactica toaster? It'll imprint a centurion on your piece of bread. NBC is doing a whole series of stuff for Comic-Con from BSG, Heroes, and Eureka.
What it needs is the classic light from the original series Cylon helmet with noise while it toasts.

Also, when you push the "toast" button it should say "By your command."
I didn't realize Rose had a "special" voice. Huh.
No doubt
to match the violet eyes and smelling of strawberries, if RTD is anyone to judge by.
