Wait, was this really the first time in twenty-five years Sideshows Bob and Mel met? That seems like such an obvious moment it would've been exploited and/or resorted to much earlier.

My sister thought the Eleventh Doctor's interaction with Clara was a bit too flirty, considering he was a married man. We then both spent a couple minutes deeply confused and lost in thought when I pointed out that, technically, the Doctor is a widower and always has been. He's, like, Schrödinger-single.

I haven't seen it mentioned yet, but I like what they're doing with the TARDIS this year in having it land in enclosed spaces like Clara's apartment or the school supply closet and building the set outside the console room so they can get the "bigger on the inside" effect for free. I wasn't a big fan of the ribbed…

The actor who played Seb (yes, the receptionist in Heaven) was in "The Thick of It"/"In the Loop" with Capaldi, and was frequently the target of Capaldi's character's wrath.

I think it was more on the fact that Socinus's punishment doesn't come up again. IIRC, there's a deleted scene in the finale where Tyrol tells him that coming along on the mission was his opportunity to get out of the doghouse so… sucks to be him, I guess.

There's even more fun with the male nudity. I remember talking to someone about it another forum and pointing out that, since it was a very deliberate camera move, that had to be EJO's direct order and not some weird twitch by the shakeycam that just happened to pass over a guy's junk.

The fact that the Sixes aren't just gorgeous, but TV-gorgeous probably contributed to their in-universe trait of being the model that has the most individual expression, with a lot of variation in temperament, fashion sense, and hairstyle. I know the Clark-Kent glasses are a bit of a joke, but every little bit helps.…

I think "The Woman King" is a vital step on Tigh's journey back from New Caprica. During that entire time, he used brutal and self-destructive tactics as a first resort, with questionable efficacy, but he was able to do it because he maintained a pathological confidence in his own infallibility. He was always making…

The miniseries implies that Cylon Sharon is in command, at least of Six and Doral. Does that carry across the various copies? If so, the Six on Caprica really enjoyed beating the snot out of her boss, didn't she?

Well, she is the chief of security (or rather, the more realistically-named equivalent). She was mentioned once or twice later on, but it does seem like a potential source of stress in the ship that the person in charge of all the people with the guns lead a witch hunt on the ship. At the very least, I'd guess she was…

SPOILERS FOR SAFETY

Heck, just have it be pure gold. The incurable shiny, very heavy, yet oddly clay-like man!

I like simple explanations, but lying-still-with-eyes-open is pretty universal TV-shorthand for "dead." It looks like Lawless will have a more complicated return.

On the minus side, we no longer get lengthy first-hand reports of the Gathering of the Juggalos. If memory serves, those were good ones.

Holy shit, I did not know about that. I feel so delighted, and yet such a failure as a soundtrack nerd.

He may have realized he was holding on to one of his own memory worms. The audience has no idea of how rare or common they are, but the Doctor might've taken it as another argument that he had volunteered.

That was in "Victory of the Daleks," when the Doctor tries to get Amy to back him up about the Daleks being total a-holes who Churchill shouldn't trust, and she has absolutely no memory of the giant invasion or all the planets in the sky.

It was a popular fan-theory in season 5, that the cracks were going to lead to a complete soft-reboot of the show, wiping out all the alien invasions and continuity baggage of the earlier seasons of the revival (or even the whole show, because there were like four years there where fans on the internet thought every…

It's better than Brannon Braga's busty-emotionless-women-in-catsuits thing.
