    Review Doctor Who (2005)

    Apparently the Movellans will be back this season as well. Moffat is really trying on his last series.

    Review It: Part 1–The Losers' Club (2017)

    Um...what? So, the novel is thirty years old. The mini-series is twenty-seven years old. And now it's going to affect them? Suuuurrre...

    Review The TENNANT Doctor

    Indeed I do. My problem is just trying to find time.

    Review Doctor Who in Print!

    Frobisher for the win!!!

    Review The TENNANT Doctor

    Extras is really funny, what I've seen of it. But again, I'm a huge Gervais fan, so I may be biased. One of the streaming sites had The Decoy Bride, and I meant to watch it, but never got around to it. Someday...

    Review Doctor Who in Print!

    I didn't read Doctor Who Magazine often enough to follow the strips. I do have the reprints in comic form of the strips that Grant Morrison wrote. Frobisher needs to be introduced to the show.

    Review Blake's 7 (1978)

    Dammit! You're right. Either way, it was a show I had no intention of watching.

    Review The TENNANT Doctor

    As I've said before, I had no idea who he was when he was cast on DW. I looked him up and realized he had been in Goblet of Fire, so I re-watched it, and remembered that I had loved his performance. I figured he could do the role of The Doctor justice. And I was correct. I loved him in the role...

    Review Modern Who Companions

    I watched a brief interview with her earlier, and I think I'm going to like her character. Apparently, she's not going to be afraid to tell The Doctor off when needed, and she's a bit of a geek, which will be nice, especially given the setting. And since the IMDb boards no longer exist, I don't...

    Review Modern Who Companions

    I found myself rather indifferent to him in The Husbands of River Song. He just seemed like the obligatory celebrity comic relief. But I really enjoyed him in The Return of Doctor Mysterio. I thought that he and The Doctor played off of each other very well. And his delivery about River at the...

    Review Teen Wolf (1985)

    I don't. Okay, I'm lying. It's great. It seems weird, because there are times when the movie can't decide if it's a comedy or horror. But somehow, it works very well.

    Review Better Off Dead (1985)

    One of my all-time favorites. Love this movie. The French girl was also one of the Princesses in Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure. She was so hot.

    Fun Soda Pop

    My usual go to soda is Mountain Dew. But I will drink just about any soda out there. I'm always on the lookout for more hard to find, non-name brand sodas, with more non-standard flavors. I hate that a six-pack of said sodas will run me anywhere from $4-6, but sometimes you gotta spend the...

    Fun US vs. UK Television Format

    I think that's another thing I like about how shows work over there. You have a much smaller writing staff, so it does have a different feel. When you have a staff of writers, it sometimes feels manufactured. Maybe it's just my take on it, I dunno. And as an American, I will always love the UK...

    Review The Exorcist III (1990)

    I own it, only because my wife bought me the box set.

    Fun Rubbish Acting in New Who!

    David Walliams as Gibbis in The God Complex. I don't know if it's bad acting or if he's just brilliant at being annoying, but I hated him in that. Sam Troughton in Midnight. You'd think that being the son of one of the OG Doctors would make him better, but he's just terrible. Alex Price as...

    Fun US vs. UK Television Format

    Over the years, I have lamented that there were so many British programs that only lasted a few seasons/series, and then disappeared. As I've gotten older, I see some wisdom in this type of format. Often, programs will do only a few series, with about six episodes each. Some shows last for...

    Review Vicious (2013)

    Freddie (Ian McKellen) and Stuart (Derek Jacobi) are an old gay couple who have been together for nearly 50 years. Their lives now revolve around entertaining their frequent guests and hurling insults at each other at every opportunity. This show was brilliant. It was only two series and a...

    Review The Monkees (1966)

    They certainly made the most of being a manufactured group. I still love the show, and the music. Peter Tork will always be my favorite. Cool fact I had never learned. According to Behind the Music, "Last Train to Clarksville" was a song about Vietnam. Just makes it that much cooler in my eyes.

    Review The Fate of the Furious (2017)

    I hadn't heard this news, but here's how I really want it to play out. She wasn't Missy/The Master, but The Rani, and the two were setting The Doctor up for some...really bad thing. I'm also hella excited about the old school Cybermen coming back. But I would still like to see the eighties...
