Doctor Who Treads Water And Orphan Black Gets It, Maybe

The last three Doctor Who episodes have been less than crucial, with the hunting of Red October featuring the guy from Outcasts channeling an uber-low-budget Sean Connery, a weak Sherlock Holmesy ghost thing with Dougray Scott--what the fuck happened to him; I thought he was gonna be huge--and an especially tired retread of stuff they'd done before with black guys this time at least that really didn't further the Clara story.  On the other hand, Orphan Black finally started to feel properly claustrophobic and paranoid, hinting at a glorious Philip K. Dick world that we'll probably never actually see.  Still, it was finally a little bit interesting.  I highly doubt they can keep it up, but I guess you never know.
