Chuck: A friend of mine picked up the new Chuck comic and says that it was hilarious and the guys at her comic shop loved it. (That's how she found out about it.)
Patron: That girl is a witch. Mal: Yeah, but she's our witch.

ita, did you mean Donna's? That was sad. I felt so bad for the Doctor. I don't think much scares him, but that obviously did.
I think that's what got me the most upset during the episode. It wasn't all the arguing and cowardice, which was extremely hard to watch, admittedly, rather it was the look in the Doctor's eyes when he realized he was echoing Sky instead of the other way around. I've seen him sad any number of times, but I don't think I've ever seen him this honest-to-gosh scared.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Sail, yes, Donna's. I mean, the doctor was positively leaking--eyes, mouth, maybe even nose, with stress and fear. Quite a turnaround from the number of times he proclaimed himself clever.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Anyone heard anything good or bad about The Middle Man?

You know, we could experiment and cancel football.
Tom, I'll give anything Javi does at least three episodes.

It struck me as a low-rent Men In Black. Wanted to like it more than I did.

Men in Black with Chuck overtones. I hated it. First twenty minutes were some of the slowest TV minutes I've watched in a long time, and I didn't find anything funny. Some of the stuff was clever, but too self conscious for me to enjoy it.

Genrally speaking, these days I regard Matt Keeslar's participation in a project to be a warning signal of horrible quality. Quite adeparture from a few years back when he did The Last Days of Disco and Urbania.

damn, looked him up on imdb. I don't remember him in Jekyll (BBC), but I think they have the wrong video clip or something.
