I know chick. But that was the title on the video.
(she might be American)

Ahhh. hadn't spotted that :p

So... NINE DAYS until the Doc comes back?!

UNBELIEVABLY excited.

Can't wait. I've been watching the BBC America specials leading up to it.

BBC America specials?

"The X of Doctor Who", where "X" is, "Timey Wimey", "Women", "Destinations", or "Science".

Also some "Best of the Y", where "Y" is "Doctor", Monsters", or "Companions".

Basically, clipshows with random celebrity mini-interviews.

I will watch them. Cool!

But I think I know the answer to my most pertinent question. Do any of them feature Captain Jack?

Briefly.

He does show up a lot on "The Nerdist" though.

I JUST found the HD BBC America channel on FIOS! I've searched for it several times, and it wasn't there before, but last night, there it was, right next to Comedy Central! Just in time for the new Who!

I just caught up with all the Who on netflix and was hoping that the seasons were aligned enough for me to get new ones soon... looks like I'm not so lucky because the regular season is about to start?

I just turned in my cable box today :( terrible luck!!

cough thepiratebay[dot]se cough

I've never been a pirate-r ... I doubt I'll start now but we'll see

Can't believe I haven't posted about the new Doctor Who ep, given it's formed the backdrop to my thoughts pretty much since Saturday.

I'm liking Matt Smith more and more. And the Moff's intricate storytelling is so lovely. Oh, sure there were a few plotholes. Though also a possible plothole explanation for why the Daleks haven't just killed the Doc when face to face with him over the years rather than having to go to extraordinarily lengths to trick or trap him with varyingly disastrous results for the Dalek Empire.

It's a nice line, and twists the blade a little deeper after the Doctor's realisation across the last series of his own impact on others.

I'm liking the mix of dark and light, tragedy and humour and the occasional dairy foods joke.

This season we've been promised (at least for the first half before the break) individual stories, and less focus on the arc, but there are clearly some seeds being planted, and there is a definite continuation of the story from last season.

So yeah. That's all I'm gonna say so as to avoid massive spoilers, til others have caught up, but I'm very pleased.


* talking about the daleks isn't a spoiler, as the episode is entitled: Asylum of the Daleks.
