Line 44:
** To a lesser extent, if you started a drinking game about how many times Rory being a nurse got brought up, you'd be drunk very quickly.
* [[Arc Fatigue]]: With the finale of the sixth series Moffat has run into this for River and the Silents/Silence, if critical reviews are any indication.
* [[Archive Panic]]: Oh boy where do we begin? At the start of 2017, the TV series alone stands at a whopping '''832''' episodes split into 264 serials across 35 seasons. Watch (or listen to) one serial a week and you'll finish the classic series in a little over three years. Watch/listen to one serial a ''day'', and you'll finish the entire show in just under a year. There's a reason the show reset the season and episode counters to 1 when it started up again in 2005.
* [[Ass Pull]]: It seems the Doctor has a knack for saving the day through some [[Applied Phlebotinum|trick of space, time, the TARDIS, or his sonic screwdriver]] about which we've never heard before, and may not ever hear of again, though sometimes, a trick might get resurrected later, just to add a bit of continuity.
** Also, Peri's random save against existence failure. Actress Nicola Bryant didn't even ''know'' about this until years later, to boot!
