OMG DOCTOR WHO (err, 3x09)
That was incredible. I think I have a new favourite episode. Martha was awesome, and I really felt for the conflict of John Smith who wanted to remain an ordinary, simple man. And I think there was a tiny bit of the Doctor inside John Smith who wanted a normal life with a companion to grow old by his side. And Tim's speech about the Doctor being "like fire and ice and rage; like a knight and a storm at the heart of a sun, ancient and forever, burning at the center of time" was glorious and frightening and splendid, and oh, the scenes between him and Joan broke my heart. And what he did to the Family, the cold ruthless cruelty of his punishment! It was like nightmares in a nursery rhythm.
I need to rewatch and process it better, but... WOW.
“ I think I have a new favourite episode.”
What Vonnie said.
Soon, soon I can read the whitefont.
Anticipa-a-shun.
Aw. It was that SGA. Sad.
I hear the next DW episode is written by
Steven ("Empty Child'/"Doctor Dances" and also the creator of Coupling) Moffat.
Wooo!
Goodness. Who 3.09:
"Why can't I stay?" DT was--well, they all were--phenomenal in this. I was really mourning for John Smith and Joan instead of being all "Hurry up! Bring the Dr. back!" I mean, don't get me wrong - happy to see him, and all, but...
I have to stay, I was heartily stung on Martha's behalf when he asked Joan to go away with him and be his companion. I mean, not that Martha knows he did it, but ouch.
And, last, the kid from Love Actually is fantastic. Love that kid

TVShowson dvd says that the Dresden Files will be released on August 7th. (I could swear I already pre-ordered this -- is it possible it was up for pre-order before they announced a release date?)
weeps for being so far behind on DW.
I usually read all the whitefont, but I have been trying to resist until I get up to date on Who. Damn the lack of hours in the day.
Yeah, sumi, I was confused too - according to Amazon I pre-ordered it May 19.
At least we know it's actually coming out. I'm dying to find out about a second season. I need more of the Harry-n-Bob Show.
I hope we hear about a second season soon -- I need more of the Harry-n-Bob show too.
Also, re: the Dr. Who Confidentials - I have such a crush on the SFX supervisor named Danny Hargreaves. What a cutie pie. Plus, he blows stuff up. Safely. What's not to love?
