This is an interesting article about last night's episode of Doctor Who. Spoilery for last season and the first two episodes of this season.
Hey, preaching to the choir. I thought our Lady of the Perpetual Sea Breeze was the real deal until the Divine Miss J walked right through that door and right into my ass—which is where my heart is…physiologically. I could show you an x-ray.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Just rewatched "Silence in the LIbrary" and "Forest of the Dead." I am such a sap I cried at the end... again. But it's weird, as the latest River Song episodes sort of changes how I see the earlier River episodes. For example, in "Silence in the Library" she sees the Doctor and he doesn't recognize her, just as she feared in "The Impossible Astronaut."
When the whole River arc is over, I think it'll be fun to play the River episodes in the order she experiences them.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
I do hope we get that first/last meeting.
The title "Silence in the Library" seems like there should be a reference to the Silence somewhere in it, now, though.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
They are color coded based on the opening credits. Normally, the credits are blue. Whenever an episode takes place Over There, the credits are red.
The two sides also have different fringe sciences named in the text of the opening credits.
I wonder, if the 'verses blend together, whether we'll get purplish credits.
For Entrada they alternated between red and blue. Purple would make sense for a merge though.

Wait a second.
Amy sees a Silent at the start of "The Impossible Astronaut." It's a pretty safe bet she's seen the Armstrong clip at some point, but she doesn't react and doesn't have the urge to kill. So has the Doctor already changed history from 1969 onward?
