OK, so... Doctor Who 3.10.
Oh my goodness, another amazingly good episode; another of the ones with the timey-wimey bits all fitting together again at the end, like a jigsaw. And so scary I had to switch channels at one point (the remote age equivalent of hiding behind the sofa, I suppose).
I loved the bits about
the DVD Easter eggs - one for the fans. And - "They're the 17 DVDs I own". "You only own 17 DVDs?" - hah. Also loved Carey Mulligan, but then she's been one to watch since Bleak House at least.
I was a bit disappointed that
the Doctor didn't offer to take Sally along with him, she's another brave, resourceful woman who'd fit right into his collection. Oh well, if Martha ever decides to leave....
The Confidential was very enjoyable. I love it when they reference the old series, which they've pretty much stopped doing generally.
It doesn't look like last night's SGA is going to be repeated any time soon -- was it good enough to be worth acquiring through other methods?
It's pretty good. Not a big spectacle-type story, but I can't think of anything in it that annoyed me (which is saying something for these writers!), and it was Teyla's annual front-and-center episode. I can burn a copy to disk at work Monday if you don't care to ahem it in the meantime.

See, for me, the latter is the former. I don't think I am ever going to get over her.
I did end up confused as to exactly when the plan was made, though.
My timing seems to be off. I wasn't around to watch the Stargates, and yet I am home for Ice Spiders, or whatever this is called.
A classic in the making. I'm even afraid of spiders and this is cracking me up.
I watched the first few minutes and got a bit grossed out. But now i've got Ice Spiders back on. They are rather pretty. In a weird creepy way.
Brilliant Dr. Who! Am I the only one who thought that
the Nightingale boy was going to get nabbed at the house, right before they found the TARDIS, and that's how the Dr. got the transcript?
Watched Ice Spiders to the end. Quite a feat. My fear of spiders is cured. From now on when I see I spider I will burst out laughing.
Behind on the Who. Must catch up.
Ten minutes into
Doctor Who
3x10:
AAAAAUGH CREEPY ANGELS AAUGGGGHH!
Jon, thought what you thought and I'm glad it happened their way instead. My hope for it not being that way was that I thought he
had to figure out some of the bits she said before he started writing, and that wouldn't happen till after the scary stuff.
My worry about the
nasty horrible fucking terrifying
(I was a child in Natter because I was SCARED--I can admit that to you people)
bad guys is that someone will move the statues apart from each other and they'll get on the move again. Were they holding hands?
That would make me sleep better.
Doctor Who,
20-minute mark:
Dammit, Billy Shipton, you're gonna die, aren't you? But I like you! *sigh*
