    Doctor Who 2007, Episode 1: "Smith and Jones" (Spoilers likely)

    It was satisfying to see a new episode but I wasn't too terribly excited about the episode really. Usual critique. More historical setting/content is appealing though. Have to wait until next week. IIRC, if Roger Delgado hadn't passed away in a car crash there was supposed to be an episode...

    The Great Sidekick Showdown! Nominate Here

    From what I've gathered, most people who aren't fond of him are irritated by his consistant practice of whining, getting captured and then waiting for the Doctor to rescue him. He doesn't really bother me too much.

    Top Ten Favorite Sci-Fi or Fantasy TV Series?

    Pretty much Doctor Who. I suppose you could consider The Prisoner or The Avengers as a sort of Sci-fi, so those as well.

    Tenth Doctor's New Threads

    As far as I understand Barrowman will be around a bit during season two as he wasn't sure of the dynamics at the time (apparently he wasn't very aware of Eccleston debacle until it happened) so he scheduled other things, but he'll be back pretty solidly for season three. Not sure where I read...

    mixed genre movie search

    Something else to check out is Crazy Lips, comedic horror with sex, gore, kung-fu, zombies, black magic, and a musical number. Possibly a social/political allegory or maybe just a dirty (but fun!) exploitation film.
