Instead we watched the end of Merlin, S2 (god, what a frustrating, incoherent waste of a series -- it has so much potential and it just doesn't know what it wants to be or care about creating a coherent world no matter how wonky and anachronistic -- note, I'm not asking for any sort of "accuracy" just for internal consistency).
Then we watched two episodes of Buffy which I continue to love. But wow that episode on cyberdating demons was so 90s it hurt. Jacked in?!?!?!?! Oi. It also had a lot of elements that reminded me of The Impossible Planet/The Satan Pit from Doctor Who.
One of the things that amuses me about Buffy is spending a lot of time thinking about what the fandom must be like. At one point I turned to Patty and said, "People get that Gilles is, well, Gilles, right? They aren't writing lots of terrible fic about him wearing leather pants and being a dom are they? Because in Harry Potter fandom, that's what would happen."
Soon we can start Being Human.

For now I'll just say wait for Ethan Rayne to show up. And then Band Candy.
