What do you think of what’s been happening on ABC’s Resurrection? Have you been watching The CW’s Arrow? Are you enjoying CBS’ The Big Bang Theory as much as you have in past seasons? Will you be sad to see USA Network’s White Collar come to an end? Have you lost interest with the present Frozen storyline on ABC’s Once Upon a Time like Jon and Wayne? What did you think about season eight of BBC America’s Doctor Who? Did you enjoy this week’s guests?

I hated how Clara changed in her relationship with the Doctor in this season, and was RELIEVED to see her go.
BUT for BOTH of them to LIE to each other as they say good bye was finally the nail in the coffin of this relationship.
Looking forward to a companion who will have chemistry with Capaldi. 😉
Ian, Thanks for the comment. We read it and talked a bit more about Doctor Who S.8 on Ep.251.
