30 day TV meme / Day 2 / A show that you wish more people were watching: Burn Notice

“My name is Michael Weston. I used to be a spy. Until… We got a burn notice on you, you’re blacklisted. When you’re burned, you’ve got nothing. No cash, no credit, no job history. You’re stuck in whatever city they decide to dump you in. You do whatever work comes your way. You rely on anyone who’s still talking to you. A trigger-happy ex-girlfriend, an old friend who used to inform on you to the FBI, family too…if you’re desperate. Bottom line: As long as you’re burned, you’re not going anywhere.”

Top 5 Doctor Who Episodes: The Satan Pit. (2006)
Not only one of the most visually stunning and colorful episodes we’ve ever seen up to this point, but the content of this episode was seriously just incredible. The writing was beyond anything else in the series. It examines the things that make us human: our past, our beliefs, our curiosity, and our bravery in the face of something incomprehensible. The mythology alone in this episode is amazing. And for the first time, we get a peek into the Doctor’s own beliefs. The long conversation he has with Ida as he lowers himself into the unknown will forever be one of my very favorite moments of the show. And we also see the courage, confidence, and loyalty that floods through Rose in his absence. Even having no contact with the Doctor, no TARDIS, no way home, and on a cursed planet battling with aliens possessed by Satan himself, she never stops. She pulls on everything she has done with the Doctor and has the crew remember and use their greatest strengths, and facilitates several solutions and escape plans.

Also, we have the Doctor, alone in utter darkness, miles beneath the surface of a strange planet, telling another lone astronaut that if they do ever get back in contact with the crew, with Rose— oh, she knows. Three little words to break your heart before he unhooks himself and falls deeper into the black, and surely to death. When contact is re-established, and Rose wants to stay put, and wait for the Doctor— even if he never returns —the crew drugs her and stuffs her into a rocket for her own safety. The Doctor (alive) finds the Devil (LITERALLY THE DEVIL) chained to the core of the planet. He outsmarts him. Rose tells a Satan-possessed crew member to go to hell before shooting out the window of the rocket and watching him get sucked into space. To die. What that basically means is that Rose has SENT THE VERY IDEA OF SATAN TO IMPLODE IN SPACE (where no one can hear you scream). And then, reunited (FINALLY), the Doctor bids the crew of the Bitter Pill farewell to the happy tune of, basically, “Yes, we are LEGEN-wait for it-DARY.” Fuck yeah they are.
