I can't think of anything that I wouldn't have let my (imaginary) kids watch in Who, but I wouldn't call it a kids show.

'War Stories'
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.

It's no more a kids show than classic Star Trek was and I watched that when I was eight years old. There was nothing there that was overtly inappropriate (other than the occasional shot of a bare-chested Kirk or a little kissy face), the same as Who today.

Which totally goes over any eight-year-old's head, unless they're mighty precocious.
What can I say, my parents slept in separate beds.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
Apparantly Stephen Moffat was quoted at Comic-Con that he wants to bring back Who to how he remembers it in his own childhood- scaring the shit out of him.
He's certainly made a good start with his episodes of the first 3 seasons. Though I wasn't left with a particular fear of drumstick-eating shadows the way I was with gas masked children or mobile religious statuary.

From waaaay back:
Finally got back to Avatar after a brief hiatus, with Tales of Ba Sing Se, Appa's Lost Days, and Lake Laogai.
Saddest string of eps ever. Don't mess with Appa!

Isn't Eureka on tomorrow? I remember thinking when I heard it was going to be on Tuesdays that the end of Deadliest Catch was perfectly timed, what with the season finale being last week!
