What is up, people? Why did you not post a HUGE LIESE ESCALATOR PHOBIA WARNING about PD? You see? My fears are not unjustified. Those things are nasty killing machines just waiting to jump out at you.
Lorne: Back in Pylea they used to call me "sweet potato." Connor: Really. Lorne: Yeah, well, the exact translation was "fragrant tuber" but…
'Conviction (1)'
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.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".
I still can't watch 'Blink' without repeatedly spilling whatever I'm drinking.
Few months ago, when I had a free night during uni-week, I sometimes cooked and raised "soup nights" for some uni friends.
One of the nights we watched Blink.
Now, bear in mind I'm a history student. Great Dead Greeks/Romans sculpture aren't a rare sight in my classes. And every time there's one, I bend over and whisper in the ears of those who've watched that ep, "don't blink!". They kinnda hate me for this. Mine is an evil laugh.
On the other hand, Silence in the Library/Forest of the Dead? After watching those, and had to spend time in the library, I wanted to yell "count the shadows!" at my friends there.
So, DW. Not a great advantage if you want to look like you're having this sanity thing.

Heh. How Steven Moffat makes perfectly ordinary things and places so utterly *terrifying* is just genius. I'm so excited (tiny writerly spoiler if you haven't been following Doctor Who news) that he's taking over as head writer. It's going to be a thrill ride.

I know, Seska. I'm already terrified!

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Primeval: Bets from the unspoiled how long before we see Douglas Henshall back again, either as Nick Prime or a clone?
I'm assuming there is something behind him telling Helen how stupid she was.

“Not dead yet!”
But they haven't announced any air dates for this past year's Who Christmas special, have they?

Yes - it's end of June.
ita - I agree. We will see some version of Cutter sooner rather than later.
Or possibly at the last possible moment in a cliffhangery way at the end of the last episode. (I could swear I heard some announcement re: end of season. It seems far too soon.)

ita, definitely. We're so seeing Cutter again.
I'm not sold on Danny Quinn yet, but I like watching Becker--even if he's not all that useful. He's certainly pretty.
