I'm all up in the law now, but damn it feels good to get my violence on.

Boxed Set, Vol. II: "It's a Cookbook...A Cookbook!!"  

A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much any other "genre" show that captures our fancy. Expect Adult Content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.

Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.

Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.

This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

If it's the front page of the BBC.co.uk entertainment section, we've been talking about it in Spoilers all day.

"I've got a gun! I've got a mother-flippin' gun!" - Moss, The IT Crowd

I'm guessing it is on there but my link was to the article. I keep forgetting there's a specific spoilers forum; I stay away from it because there's things on other shows I don't want to know. Doctor Who, I like knowing in advance, though. Funny old world...

eta: Yup, same thing you peeps talked about in Spoilers. Thought it was odd that I got to it first...

Woe to the fucking wicked.

Oh, yes, the mini novels. I can't believe I forgot the edjective.

I'm betting that Christmas Invasion will be on S2, if any.

Art Crawl!!!

Hmm, Amazon has some hardcover Who books -- their prices are certainly not as big as most hardcovers: perhaps they are mini!

There seem to be six titles:
Only Human
The Stealers of Dreams
The Deviant Strain
The Clockwise Man
Monsters Inside

And Winner Takes All.

(Whew -- I knew I counted six.)

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

Maybe in a couple years they'll do a "The # Doctors" special...

Who's (no pun intended) still alive and kicking (heh, typed "kinking" first - sorry Plei) of the 10?

If I only had a brain...

And Baker's too old to look at all like the character. The first three started out looking old or at least middle-aged.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand

Davison still looks eerily close to the same age though, and McGann was recent enough to look not too advanced in age from the TV movie. (Also, I believe his Doctor went through a couple centuries of untelevised audio adventures, so there's rationale for him to look older.) McCoy's probably on the bubble age-wise. Colin Baker is in about the same shape as Tom Baker, though I don't imagine there's much clamoring for a return of his particular Doctor in any event.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

The first three doctors are gone.

So they did "The 5 Doctors" pretty much the last time they could then.

On a tangent, poor Patrick Troughton. Because of my older sister, who introduced me to WHO during the PBS broadcasts of the 3rd, 4th and 5th Doctors, he will forever be remembered as "The Doctor who looks like Moe from the Three Stooges".
