Midnight, not just the time I am swearing at when trying to grab images for these reviews, but also the name of a planet in an episode I didn’t quite remember watching before. I knew one or two shots but for the…
“Hello sweetie!” Oh, I do love hearing that, though it sounds far sweeter from a curly blonde woman surrounded by mystery, action, and intrigue than it does from your dad. Professor River Song is Moffat’s second-best creation behind what haunts River’s mum.…
This week I’ve spoken enough about Doctor Who I either don’t trust in liking or simply don’t like in the first place; I want to talk about what has (sort of) kept my faith in the entity. Doctor Who is too big to…
To put it simply sometimes you don’t like someone’s writing style. Some have a seething hatred for what I’d characterize as how simple, personal, and human I try to make everything I write without the verbose and grand nature that others might…

I was hoping this would have been later in Donna’s run with The Doctor, but here we are. This is why I don’t like Donna’s character. The whiplash you get from her first three episodes is like listening to my music playlists.…
There was this thing around about 2006-2007 that was in just about every show of the time that I like: Hustle, Ugly Betty, and Doctor Who. This was the first and only episode in Who to use it, and I think that works. It…
