The Doctor, Rose, Capt. Jack, Mickey, Jackie, Lynda, Roderick, and Anne Droid all return to face their own fate, or create it for the epic finale to Series 1. We discuss Christopher Eccleston's Swan Song as Kelsey tries to figure out what Bad Wolf is all about. The Daleks are led by an egotistical "God," much like the TARDIS and Rose turns into a God-like creature to rid the universe of these dust bins. Even Jackie gets into the action by bringing over a huge truck from her previous boyfriend! Enjoy.

Captain Jack gets a makeover, The Doctor sits in Big Brother's big red chair, and Rose plays against Roderick in the Weakest Link! The problem is that it doesn't end well for those who lose their game, their vote, or even their head! As the TARDIS crew try to escape their deadly traps, the Controller(not the BBC controller) tries to get a message to the Doctor before being zapped across time and space and exterminated. We rate the penultimate episode of Series 1.

Colin and Michael dive head first into the dark abyss known as Torchwood. We discuss the first episode introducing us to characters Gwen Cooper, Ianto Jones, Owen Harper, and reintroducing Captain Jack Harkness and Dr. Toshika Sato(both from Doctor Who). Will we be hiding behind the sofa on this more adult version of Doctor Who? And what is a Weevil anyway?!

Blink once and you are scared. Blink twice and you have Colin, Kelsey, and finally Shelby able to weigh in before they are sent hurtling back in time to live a very different life. Life is short and you all are hot, but we decide to discuss Billy Shipton's plight, Cathy Nightengale's fate, and the famous Sally Sparrow's unique interest in breaking into Wester Drumlins (a haunted house). But wait, where is the Doctor and Martha in this story?

Poison darts, bad breath, intergalactic surf boards, and skin suits made for big green aliens come together to bring this tale of love and honor... er... nuclear power plant plans over a rift in time and space?! This brings back Margaret of the Slitheen family, and Mickey who make this such an riveting episode. But what is our take on it.

After getting our dancing shoes on we take turns figuring out who will dance with the Doctor himself. Dr. Constantine dances with an older woman who grew her leg back, Jamie dances with the Doctor when he is thrust into the air, Rose dances with Jack, the Doctor and Kelsey tries dancing with Shelby. Finally, this finale concludes with Jack dancing with literally everyone including the TARDIS.

Are you my mummy? Tonight we catch a ride on a piece of rope through the London Blitz. Dodging World War II aircraft, buildings and a really hot Captain allows us to finally come to terms with whether or not this episode of horror, intrigue and mystery was worth our time (and space).

Rose asks the Doctor to go back in time, twice, to be with her father right after he was struck by a car. She gets more than she bargains for when she saves him, including getting a hug from a very young Mickey, her future boyfriend! Our eyes needed drying, but did we enjoy this tear-fest?

Satellite 5 is home to Simon Pegg, loads of food stands, the Jagrafess, brain opening memory chips, internet access for all with said chip, out of control heater vents, and one person who isn't supposed to be there. Er, make that four people. Will Kelsey like Adam? Will the Doctor improve in this episode? Will Colin get his good bye in? What an episode!
