'Serenity'


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.

Nine *is* the Doctor, in my mind. Nine is the man I'd follow to the end of the universe and back, the man I'd trust absolutely with my life. He's *my* Doctor.

Yup, in absence of Tom Baker. Nine feels more tragic to me, more grieving for his lost kindred. Ten has too much arrogance for my taste. He enjoys his power, which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but Nine felt the weight of the power more and had a better sense of consequences.

edit: Still and all, nobody rocks like Ace.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

nobody rocks like Ace.

Except Leela.

True, Leela possibly does rock more.

Who is Ace?

Is there a Doctor Who timeline that shows where in the universe each Doctor was at any given time?

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.

Ace was the Seventh Doctor's companion. She was something of a delinquent and she liked to blow shit up (and was good at it).

I would love for Ace to show up at some point in the new series.

Leela knew how to disembowel people.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.

And as for all the appearances of Nine in what's-his-name's conspiracy files, I've always assumed that after his first attempt to get Rose to go with him, the Doctor had a few lonely adventures through Earth's history before going back to remind her that the TARDIS travels in time as well.

Possible, but just as likely that some of them are "unseen" adventures he had along the way with Rose. There are gaps in between some episodes where anything could have happened.

And I have to state emphatically that the best Doctor is the first Doctor that I ever saw. And anyone who says differently is WRONG.
