Mal ,'Our Mrs. Reynolds'
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.
Oh, Ailleann, I am so glad I'm not the only one who thought of that!
"Somethings wrong with me!" ::boom::
If only.
Midnight was even more awespwn on the third viewing.
SGA: why can't I remember that this is just Not. That. Kind of. Show.? It has some incredibly wonderful moments, the bestest slash, and then the most absurd writing. Just holy mother of WTF god were they smoking? kind of writing.
Ronon + Shep 4eva!
The whole episode should have been people trapped under the rubble, as those were the scenes that were actually good.
Matt - when was it ever in doubt that Aeryn Sun is far, far more kickass then Teyla?

not Matt, but while this is true, it didn't stop me from immediately thinking of Aeryn giving birth.
So, she gave birth?
(Finally.)
I hope when I get to see "Midnight" on the tv - it will prove to be as intense as the youtube version hinted. Also, whatserface from Afterlife was an excellent guest star. Kind of cool to have a Tardis and Companion light episode.
I felt like Jilli at the beginning of the episode. The hostess said hello and I thought "I WANT that lip colour!"
"Midnight" was seriously intense. I think that's about as helpless as I've seen the Doctor, even before the transference (i.e. the situation having gotten away from him).
Nice shout out to bottle episodes of all stripes (the shuttlecraft episode which was Spock's first command comes to mind), and love (in a saddened way) that no one knew the flight attendant's name.
That's one of the hardest episodes of television to watch. It's as creepy as Blink, but in a totally "you can see it coming" way rather than "don't turn your back" way.
Huh--the Professor in "Midnight" was played by David Troughton, the son of Patrick Troughton, Doctor #2. Much taller than his dad, and IIRC, a big director of episodic Brit TV.
In general the Doctor does not seem to handle possession well. One of variety of monster where "I'm the thing the monsters are afraid of" does not seem to apply.
