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.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

No, they're in some weird form of stasis.
Or become part of whatever the 456 are. Obviously, whatever the children did for the 456 was so successful that they came back for more - to outfit or retrofit more of their people.
So sad and also angry about Ianto.

No, they're in some weird form of stasis.
Or maybe they're lucid and have just given up all hope.
I wonder if the 456 do it with other planets too.
THE DOCTOR WOULD KNOW.

They become some sort of symbiote, maybe? Perhaps that's how the 456 get nutrition? Like a portable stomach? Ew, I just grossed myself out.

That's what I figured.

Can humans digest the stuff that the 456 live in?
ION, Details on the Farscape Megaset and the individual season dvds.
Well, if you can afford it - the megaset IS a deal over buying the individual episodes.

Not to be overly persnickety or unreasonable, but back when the Supernatural discussion still happened in this thread people used to put in a jump cut from the beginning of an episode discussion until the end, so those who didn't watch the show could skip past all the posts. Lately this thread has been overwhelmed with Dr. Who/Torchwood posts, which I agree is wonderful for those who enjoy those shows. However, for those of us who don't watch them, it means we have to do a LOT of scrolling to get to the occasional Eureka or whatever post. When an episode airs and you know there'll be a lot of discussion, would it be possible to put in a jump cut?
Or not, in which case I'll crawl quietly away to the corner and continue to scroll. and scroll. and scroll.

Well, I imagine that after tonight the Torchwood posts will start to die away. (With additional Doctor Who posts on Sunday - but then dying away again.)

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The next (and last) Torchwood episode airs at the same time as the next Eureka episode, so it wouldn't work.

I just watched a new (to me) preview for Stargate: Universe.
So.... it's Stargate: Galactica, huh?
