Yeah, I've seen those before -- I'm pretty sure that at least half of Barrowman's constant cocky grin schtick translates as "yes, world, I really am that lucky."
I completely agree.
Take jobs as they come -- and we'll never be under the heel of nobody ever again. No matter how long the arm of the Alliance might get, we'll just get ourselves a little further.

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.

through all the crap and shit and mundanity, Donna Noble, you are still awesome.
Rose, I'm sorry about the hair and the clothes you seem to be stuck with.

It's like there was five years inbetween when we next saw him!
I think it's the hair.

That was even worse than the lisp.

WHOA! So that wasn't so much Rose as we last saw her, as some manifestation of Bad Wolf Rose? It would explain her knowing so much about how Donna's life was supposed to have gone despite returning into an alternate timeline where those events never happened...

I think it's the hair.
I think it's the clothes/wardrobe as well. He just seems so smooth-skinned and skinny and just, well, young. I'm finding it all rather shocking in comparison to how he looks in the first season of Torchwood (maybe it's the huge trenchcoat?)
Rewatching Rose in season 1 and she's like a vapid Donna point 1. She was the voice of reason and humanity, and these new glimpses of her just aren't tying that in. She's cool, but beyond the voice issues, not my Rose.
But Donna, oh Donna. You rock.

My God, I think I'm going to pass out from shock. A Stargate episode actually had a semi-feasible explanation for where the raw material came from for some threat growing at freakish rate.

What is this witchery?! How is it that SGA managed to make me not hate Woolsey at the very end? That, like, takes writing and stuff. Passingly decent writing. The hell? Stop the madness!!
At least I don't have to deal with floppy-ponytailed-Not!Sam anymore. Not that I was ever a fan of Sam, but her SGA incarnation was a total assassination.

Donna Noble, you rock. I love Martha Jones, but the pining was an issue. I think I may have a new favorite companion.
I did find Rose's reticence when asked by Donna if she's "ever...", concerning the Doctor verrrrry interesting.

Someone over at TwoP referred to a Who novel with a companion named Samantha Jones, which in light of that moment made me imagine Kim Cattrall having cosmos with friends and saying "Honey, hearts aren't the only thing he's got more than one of!"

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
I was bemused to realise that Kim Cattrall had (1) been involved with the lickable Alexander Siddig for a while and (2) played a vulcan on one of the Trek movies.
