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.

This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.
I would so buy a weeping angel statue for my garden if I saw one on offer.
Actually, I'd like to get two in slightly different poses, just for the opportunity to play some serious mind games with any Who fans who might be visiting.
I don't know you people. I'm both creeped out and amused, and quite sure I'll never visit any one of you.
Then again, throwing a cat at my general direction would have the same effect on me, so it's a win-lose/lose-win situation.
Man. and I thought Buffistas are here to help me with life, not to get it more complicated.

"Blink" encapsulates what I so very much love about Doctor Who--the ability to take bits of string and paper and random junk and plungers and make it
scary as all fuck.
That is a talent that ought to be properly appreciated.
Trust me, I fully appreciate stuff that make me shiver for days after encountering them.
Steven Moffat's writing is now on that list.
Are you my mummy?
That didn't scare me. That was just annoying with a pinch of wtf over it.
And for some reason, now reminds me of Connor.
A poster somewhere (maybe TwoP?) said that her dad coincidentally moved a stone angel statue into her backyard garden without telling her the morning after she first saw "Blink." You can imagine how well that was received.
Oh my God! I'm with tears of laughter in my eyes.
Are you my mummy?
Man, said in the right tone, that can

creep me the fuck out. As if gas masks didn't already, thanks Sandman.

I just finished rewatching "Midnight." That's also very simply scary, just a person talking at the same time as you are. But, she's stealing your words and through them, your power, or rather, the Doctor's power. Very creepy!
Hee! It's all the right kind of scary. I think I mentioned this at the time, but D. took a gorgeous picture of a flower framed against a stone angel that we have framed on the wall. It's sentimental already; it was taken at the hospital where my grandmother died.
But now, bonus terrifying! It's a lovely shot, with the flower in near focus, making the angel statue blurry. Which makes me feel like I can't quite see it and therefore it's out to get me!
Mmm, Blink.
