WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY WHY
SOME PEOPLE. NEED TO GO REWATCH SERIES FIVE. AND THINK ABOUT WHAT THEY WATCHED. BECAUSE I CAN’T EVEN.
SERIOUSLY, YOU PISS ME OFF MORE THAN THE BATCHIP TEN/ROSEFEN
REBLOGGING FOR TRUTH AND GREAT JUSTICE.
I don’t often wade in on…
Blog thinks he could have knocked her up in way that does not involve sex. Because he is Doctor.
Also, sex based on what happened in S5, yes rly. That was when Doctor was all “LOL AMY FUCK ME PLS” and Rooory was dead and not there. Besides, Rory had 2000 years he probably had some childrens he not mentioned yet.
But 2000yr-waiting-Rory was made of plastic then. So that would mean…
All those Doctor dolls! Those are really plastic-Auton-Rory’s babies!
Um…

Now that the new season of Who is about to start, I thought I’d throw out a treat for you Tennant fans: David Tennant vs. baby conveyance thing. Yah, he and Georgia Moffet had a kid, didn’t you know? Hey, now, put down that razor…
(Warning: the review at the link contains spoilers. So does my comment on it.)
Anyway — so it is Nixon, not LBJ. Why did all the preliminary things about the new season say “LBJ” then? Weird. Anyway, this sentence stood out as bizarre:
Would BBC America ever countenance a wholly negative US Presidential portrayal?
Erm, Nixon is still widely considered in tv media as the Wicked Witch of Washington DC, the Most Horrible Present Ever Ever! I was under the impression that this Nixon phobia had been accepted as fact by the overseas entertainment media. I’m actually surprised his character, or an “alien stand-in” for same, is apparently not the villain of this episode.
Oh, and this is hilarious: the Doctor tells him to record his phone conversations? I can see the fit hitting the shan now. Let me just say that over here Nixon’s recordings are supposed to be some of his most evil acts. (I don’t know why — they’re what got him nailed.) So much so that the FBI can’t even listen into a known terrorist supporter in this country’s overseas phone call to his oddly masculine sounding and jihad-obsessed “mother” in Yemen without the US media freaking out about free speech. Just think about it — every little scandal that comes out of DC is called “Something-gate.” That should be your first clue. The production company at Doctor Who Ltd.: still not “getting” America for over 40 years.
That sounds like an actual title of an episode of Doctor Who, doesn’t it? But it isn’t about the Doctor and a marauding semi-intelligent nebula monster made of multi-colored gasses and how he is able to trick it into a black hole by playing Slim Whitman’s “Indian Love Call” over the Tardis speakers… but instead the subject of this person’s book project. I decided to answer all the questions except the ones on autism, about which I know nothing except hearsay, which is to say, nothing. (I’m trying to keep writing about stuff I don’t know anything about to a minimum.) Anyway, here is what I said, after the break:
DOCTOR Who star Matt Smith was banned from baring his bum while filming a new show about a gay writer.
BBC chiefs feared it would tarnish Matt’s image in the sci-fi show, so he had to keep his rear hidden.
A BBC source said: “Because Dr Who is a firm favourite among family audiences, we thought it would be better if we didn’t show Matt’s behind in his new drama.”
“A firm favourite.” Oh Sun. I see what you did there.
