Eh. So far I'm not impressed.

Finished The Other Log of Phileas Fogg (I am not a fan), and started The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo and 11/22/63 (audiobook for my commute), both of which I'm enjoying so far.

The best line from this episode: "Frightened people... Give me a Dalek any day." Yes, of course. Because dealing with the black and white simplistic morality of space Nazis is much simpler than the reality of any human situation. I think this is partially why I like spaghetti Westerns more...

No, but you did as what was wrong with Adele, which is what I was answering. I think she's incredibly talented, but that doesn't mean I look forward to hearing her songs on the radio, or on Glee.

Well, I listen to metal/rock stations. My wife and daughters prefer the top 40 stations. When we're in the car together, I'm over-ruled. And I was only partially exaggerating about the line-up. There were a few other songs in rotation this spring, but if there was an hour block of Top 40 radio...

No, just overexposed. I don't know if it's as bad in Great Britain as it is here in the states, but this spring was an incessant rotation of 2 Adele songs, 2 Katy Perry Songs, and some other dribble.

You are most likely completely correct, which, as you indicated, is indeed a shame.

I had that same feeling, actually. I was kind of hoping for it, too, despite my instincts shouting that they'd already done Wicked and thus wouldn't do it again. I do have to say that I wish they'd go back to the Journey-led awesomeness of music that didn't suck. With the exception of "New York...

See, I understand why he takes companions (he's lonely AND he needs pawns for his elaborate chess games), but there is generally a lot more to it than, "Hey, I need an African Queen and a Big-Game Hunter for this one specific mission."

I still don't really understand why the Doctor chose the two historical people to go along with him. I'm vastly more interested in the idea that the Silurians had a spaceship loaded up with dinosaurs escaping from an asteroid (presumably the K-T extinction event).

Having watched quite a few of the older series via Netflix, and every episode since the Eccleston reboot, it's still hard to rank them in any kind of real order. That said I prefer the newer Doctors to most of the older ones (Tom Baker being the one real exception), but I'm not entirely sure I...

I just started PJ Farmer's The Other Log of Phileas Fogg. I'm a fan of the Wold Newton Universe concept in general (I have Doc Savage: His Apocalyptic Life and Tarzan Alive as well as The Dark Heart of Time, but I'm still trying to get my hands on The Adventures of the Peerless Peer.) and a huge...

Cor Azer - while that's true, this is Peter Jackson we're talking about...

The Asylum was cool. Daleks forgetting the Doctor was an interesting development. Oswin was fun. I liked Pond at first, but I'm tired of her now. I'll be quite happy when she's done. Never been a fan of Rory. And I'm still not. Overall, I feel very meh.

"Have Gun, Will Travel" is an excellent tv show. It was on Netflix streaming last year, but it's not now.

Or, maybe, it could be, as other people have said in response to you directly, but you seem completely unwilling to accept, that the designers don't want feedback on adventure design just yet, and are instead focused on character creation? You know, as in that's what the playtest material said...

Do you lack the imagination to provide those yourself so much that you rely on someone else to do that work for you?

I read it this spring and had the exact same reaction. I think knowledge of the comic book series is also helpful, but not compulsory.

Much, much, MUCH less painful a process to download. Quick read/first impressions: I like the dial options for healing. It hits my needs exactly. The re-implementation of Opportunity Attacks is nice. The monster stat blocks are better. Character creation rules are nice to have. Skills are okay...
