Basically, I rule.

Doctor Who 5.02. No spoilers or deep thinky thoughts here, just a stand up and cheer because that is the way to write sci-fi. Terrify the crap out of me, make me cry, make me think, point out my fundamental flaws as a citizen or even as a human being, make me stand up and cheer, and do it with intrepid, awesome women characters.




Yes it's teal and orange. I don't care.


"Liz Ten, Yeah. I'm the bloody queen, mate. Basically, I rule." Cheesy, but again, I don't care. She was awesome. ETA Did you see her BOOTS? Excellent boots.

The Star Wars references charmed me, the turny-head booth creatures freaked me out, and I'm just going to have to make I just made an icon out of the Abdicate button. Angry, angry Doctor made me twitch a little: "Nobody human has anything to say to me today!"



I'm sort of in love with this new series.

I was very leery of this new Doctor, but I am encouraged by your reviews!

He's as much of a delight in his way as David Tennant was when we first met him. His acting style is quite different, and though he easily brings that manic energy that Tennant had, he brings it...differently. I'm not enough of an acting critic to say exactly how, but I'm finding him both likeable/adorkable, and powerful. I really recommend you give it a shot.

The new steampunkified TARDIS is fantastic, too.
