Doctor Who (The one that started in 2005)

Barrowman is totally gay, and a big activist for gay rights in the UK, so it's not to surprising it comes up from time to time.

He's their NPH, basically. Who I also have a mancrush on, so there's another one.

Ah, didn't realize he was totally big and gay irl.

Personally, I find his character is a lot more likable when he is playing second fiddle to The Doctor. They were a good team.

If you saw him as a judge on How Do You Solve a Problem Like Maria? or Any Dream Will Do you'd have no doubts.

Never heard of either.

And HA! Dr Who, "The Poison Sky." Everyone is wearing gas masks. The Doctor puts one on and says, "Are you my mummy?" Excellent callback.

If anyone can find season 5 on their preferred BT site, throw me a link.

I can't go there at work to get you a more direct link, but for current (or recent) TV shows I recommend this site (in general, and also specifically for the new Dr. Who): http://ezrss.it/shows/

You can add a show's RSS feed to uTorrent and then you automatically get new episodes when they are posted.

Season 5 doesn't seem to be on junkie, which is strange.

Then I doubt if it exists.

It does, I watched it from EZ RSS as it was coming out in the UK each week.

I'll find it tonight and link.

Season 4 ended fucking amazingly, and amazingly sad. My kid was going nuts.

I loved how the voice of the enemy is heard for the first time, and Jack just kisses his friends and says calmly, "I'm sorry, I can't save you. We're going to die."

But then they are brilliant...

But of course he didn't understand why the Donna Noble thing was so tragic.

This show consistently delivers.

Oh, and, "EXTERMINALEN!"

Post by **TPRJones** » Wed Sep 08, 2010 5:28 pm

Is that ... a German Dalek?

Post by **GORDON** » Wed Sep 08, 2010 5:44 pm

Well I wouldn't want to spoil anything....

EXTERMENALEN!

Post by **GORDON** » Thu Sep 09, 2010 10:41 pm

(I went back and rewatched the part in Germany to make sure I was hearing it right... they definitely are saying EXTERMINALEN. It sounds very natural to hear the Daleks screaming in German...)

Watched the xmas special "The Next Doctor" with the kid, tonight. Was good, but didn't have the epic feel the other xmas specials had. In my opinion.

Will be watching the easter special "Planet of the Dead" in the next day or two.

Word of warning: the next episode after that (Waters of Mars) is a bit on the creepy side. Could give an impressionable young mind some nightmares.

Yep, kind of dark.

At first it was heading toward a bad ending and you were like shiiiit.

Then it got really bad and shit gets real and it is crushingly said and you are like SHIIIIT.

Then the Doctor turns a corner and changes his mind and comes back and you're like SHIT.

Then he changes alignment to chaotic evil and it's like OH SHIT.

Then the next episode has The Master again, and my kid has to watch it because I think this is where the next Doctor comes in and my kid has to watch it so he knows why there's a new dude in season 5.
