Doctor Who (The one that started in 2005)

As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

New commercial. Interesting. Almost spoilery.

IDW is currently running a crossover between Dr. Who and ST:TNG.

Spoiler from tonight's season premier:












SAVE THE DALEKS. Sounds like a new motivational poster. Perhaps a Dalek hanging from a tree branch.

I'm copyrighting that.

An unshot scene from the S7 mid-season finale... they should have shot it. Would have been great to end it on Brian.

Very nice. It was a huge mistake not including that - or something like it - in the episode. Not so much for Brian as to hammer home the fact that Amy and Rory had a very full and happy life. They weren't just abandoned in time due to circumstance.

Many people are upset because they didn't make that point clear enough with the abrupt ending they decided on. Me, I think it's the best possible ending a companion to the Doctor can get - and brilliantly done as well - but that's because think with my brain unlike many people.

There's no way this is going to be kept a secret, so I'll just say it here:

Coming this Christmas, the 12th Doctor.

So that regeneration limit thing was just bullshit?

Retconning is a long-standing Doctor Who tradition.

Besides, it would be 13, so there's still two left anyway. Although he supposedly used up all his juice to save River IIRC.

Anyway, as to who the next Doctor is, I presume it's John Hurt? I think that would be a fine choice. Although I will miss Matt Smith.

That would be hilarious. I approve.

I would also accept Alan Ford.

Think about it, a role where Vinnie's forced to be non-violent. Hell, that'd work for anyone moderately huge that doesn't look like a mongoloid.
