Boxed Set, Vol. VI: I am not a number, I am a free thread!

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.

I am waiting to see what part 2 brings before I react.

Are we supposed to remember O from last time he crossed paths with the Doctor?

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I did love the Doctor in the long coat and bowtie.

You've got friends to have good times with. When you need to share the trauma of a badly-written book with someone, that's when you go to family.

Agreed, but the trousers caused me pain.

Okay, the fit of the entire outfit made me sad - I understand the brief was "small child playing dress-up", but I think of the tailoring in Missy's clothes and . . . .

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?

YES OMG WTF CHIBNALL. The TARDIS knows how to dress the Doctor, damnit.

Aw, I like Jodie in suits, though I too was not a fan of the trousers. That woman can wear the hell out of a jacket and tie!

I bet she could also wear the hell out of a suit that fit.

I do wish the trousers were longer, for sure.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I was watching Doctor Who with friends, and we all went "Ooooooh!" at the reveal. But, yeah. Definitely in the missing Missy corner. I think Michelle Gomez might be busy with Sabrina, though, so even if they hadn't wanted to switch up actors, they might not have been able to get her.

I would *LOVE* to see some Thirteen/Missy interaction, but even more, I am hoping that tonight's ep finds a way to acknowledge the messiness of the Twelve/Missy relationship.

Did I mention how exciting it was for me to hear "Skaggs Island" on Dr Who? It's pretty exciting.
