Gallifrey One Panel – “The Next Doctor”
If you’re in the LA area for the Doctor Who convention Gallifrey One, I’ll be there all weekend dressed (hopefully) as the Eleventh Doctor. Hooray! I’m also participating on a panel called “The Next Doctor”. From the Gallifrey One website: We all know it’s coming… some day, whether next year or a few down the road, [...]
My Complete GMX Schedule
I’ll be in Nashville, TN from Friday to Sunday attending the Geek Media Expo. Here’s my complete schedule: Portal Party 2.0 Friday, October 26th ▪ 8:00pm – 9:30pm, Palomino + Quarter Horse + Mustang rooms Last year, we both said a lot of things that you’re going to regret. But I think we can put our differences [...]
Doctor Who: Flixlash
There’s no doubt about it – Doctor Who‘s popularity has soared since its move to BBC America in 2009. The network has been pushing and promoting the show with vigor, giving it the star treatment and prime-time advertising that SyFy never afforded it. They’ve been pushing the show on social networks – the official Doctor [...]
Breaking Broadcast: How Social Networking is Killing the TV Viewing Experience
BE ADVISED: While the post itself doesn’t contain any spoilers, there are two inline images that contain spoilers for for Game of Thrones season one, and Saturday’s Doctor Who series 7 premiere “Asylum of the Daleks”. You have been warned. It takes a lot, a lot, to get me watching a new TV show these days. It’s not because I’m [...]
Comic-Con Round-Up Exclamation Mark
I almost never take photos these days. I don’t photograph my friends, because, y’know, they’re my friends. If I find myself wondering what my friends look like I can pick up a phone and say, “Hey, are you busy today?” If the answer is no, it’s usually less than an hour before we’re in each [...]
Whovie
There has been a lot of talk over the last few years about a potential Doctor Who movie. Rather a lot of people seem to think this is an absolutely terrible idea, and given the track record I don’t particularly blame them. Perhaps even worse is that the potential for a Doctor Who movie to be an [...]
Arrested Development, Arrested
Next year, Arrested Development returns after having been mercilessly cancelled by Fox back in 2006. Ten brand spanking new episodes are being produced for distribution exclusively via Netflix, which is very exciting news for fans of great comedy. My worry, though, is that the new Arrested Development is going to make the same mistake that other similarly revived shows made [...]
No More Two-Parters in Doctor Who? Why I Don’t Think We Can Take Moffat at His Word.
WARNING: The following post contains spoilers for Doctor Who’s sixth series. You have been warned. I should also point out that, despite my employers’ connections with the BBC, I have zero foreknowledge of Series 7. Oh no! Doctor Who showrunner Steven Moffat rocked the very foundation of the show by announcing way back in December that there probably won’t [...]
Doctor, Doctor, Can’t You See I’m Burnin’, Burnin’
There’s a moment in “Rose”, the very first episode of the revived Doctor Who, where the Ninth Doctor briefly addresses his appearance, like so: Common fan theory is that the Doctor arrived in London, picked out his new clothes, realized the Nestine Consciousness was present and up to the business of conquest, and so set [...]
A Funny Turn – on the subject of Russell T Davies and clunky writing
I’ve been watching and rewatching a lot of Doctor Who lately, partially because I’m hard at work on three separate Doctor Who related projects (nothing official, o’ course – just some fun fan stuff) but mostly because… well, I love the show. I grew up with it, with Tom Baker and Peter Davison. My earliest Doctor [...]
