My head canon is that Missy didn't even try to get them. I can't picture either of them being willing to give up their emotions because they were defined by their love for each other. I think if she didn't block them entirely, she would have had Seb say "Hi, welcome to the after life, wait a minute please" and then…

Well they kind of did that already, just so they could give Rose her own private Doctor and so they could have The real Doctor wipe Donna's mid. Because Rose was a REALLY special snowflake. I have Rose issues. I liked her until she became Ten's One True Love.

This is how I feel. Donna would have preferred to die over being mindwiped. To me it was as if I had a brain tumor and was told I would live only if I had surgery BUT I would forget people I love and skills I had learned and then I said no and someone else said tough toenails I'm doing it anyway. It was a horrible,…

In Turn Left, The Doctor couldn't regenerate after setting fire to the Racnoss. There was some handwaving that because he was caught in the fire, he couldn't regenerate in time or some such thing. So, if being burnt stops regeneration, disintegration should also.

I'm expecting that Clara is pregnant. If not, I expect Danny to be brought back. I'm really betting on Danny coming back because it was Orson PINK and since Clara and Danny never married, I'm not sure why, if she's pregnant, Clara would change her name. I would expect that Orson would have been Orson Oswald if Clara…

Well, it may not have been logical or sensible, but his plan in The Sound of Drums and Last of the Time Lords WORKED and lasted for a year. If he hadn't given into an Evil Overlord impulse and instead had killed The Doctor it would have kept on working. Heck, if he hadn't ignored the equally loopy idea that J.M.Barrie…

LOL! Although if plunking around being plastic for 2000 years didn't make Rory want to turn off his emotions, I can't imagine being in a data cloud would slow him down. I'm guessing Missy stayed away from collecting THEIR consciousness.

It also calls back to earlier in the episode when they tell the Doctor that the nations decided to "elect" a President of the Earth. The Doctor said something about how human that was to elect some "idiot". Then Kate told him if that's how he wanted to view himself, to go ahead. Then he DOES decide to view himself as…

Yes. I can account for three Susan's grandmother (yes, I'm assuming they were married), River and Elizabeth I. I hate Elizabeth I having married anyone, but they did say she married The Doctor, so there you have it. I have no idea who number 4 is and would greatly appreciate it if someone can tell me if I'm just…

It doesn't close the door on a female Doctor, but it certainly gives the show an out of "but we showed Time Lords can be female with The Master, so we don't have to do it with The Doctor". Considering the screams of some posters when the idea of a female Doctor is even mentioned on this article, I think there will be…

I agree in theory, however, in this interview http://tinyurl.com/prsvlly Michelle Gomez says she lives in New York and they brought her over and filmed all of her scenes in one go. So the logistics of having her be a regular character may be difficult to work out.

Nothing in the narrative demands he become a woman. That would be change for changes sake. Nothing more. And nothing in the narrative demands he only be male.

My big guess is that The Mistress manipulated the white noise to make the "Don't cremate me" effect, so that she could give a valid reason for uploading the memories. Certainly, it was implied that this effort has been going on in the past, present, and future for some time now and no one is informed until after they…

Boy that's for sure! The second they said she was Romani I knew they would go there and I cringed. I was hoping they would at least not use gypsy, but they wanted to make sure it was spelled out for everyone. Frankly, it was a weird thing for the wife to do. It's not like people don't have negative stereotypes about…

Let's not save the kids in the magic spaceship, instead let's let them die horribly, as long as they're with their families! You just made me realize that it's even worse. The kids wouldn't have even been with their families because there wasn't time to find them, and because Clara had them all tromping back to the…

I think the one mistake Arrow made was to not provide the character of Laurel with good writing season one. Her character just didn't jell that year. Then season two was a downward spiral that didn't make her particularly likable. That coupled with Carly Lotz giving us an interesting Black Canary gave Laurel a lot to…

Well, Oliver was going to tell her everything and she made the really rational comment that she didn't care about HIS secrets, only about the secrets that are about her. Which is not a bad boundary to have. Oliver did tell her that Malcolm was alive in pretty short order, so he's keeping that part of the bargain,…

If it's anything like daytime actors contracts, the 7-years is more binding on her than on them. I know on daytime the actors would get x-year contracts, but the show had the right to write them out at 13 week intervals i.e. If they stayed through the first 3 months, then after 3 more months they can be written out. I…

My impression isn't that Malcolm is homophobic, but Ra's Ghul is. That Malcolm was simply voicing what he knew Nyssa's father would say, or what he had heard him say.

From a Doylist POV, Doctor Who is a show with a small budget so they can't afford to show people looting and they didn't want to take 30 seconds to have the news anchor saying and there are reports of looting. From a Watsonian POV, we saw that it took Danny and all the kids to get the door to the museum open. You can…
