Recurring villains
Last night we started "The War Games." Man I'm going to miss the Patrick Troughton era...season 6b theory is sounding better all the time.
The boy was feeling unusally enthusiastic about it: "War Games, eh? So, Daleks? Cybermen? Ice Warriors?"
When I told him no, he asked: "Is it an alien we've encountered before?"
Well, the careful viewer knows that there are two sets of aliens in that particular episode. One of them is a one-shot. The other...
"Oh yes. This is an alien with which we should be quite familiar."
A true answer, rendered curious by the fact that this is the episode in which they are first introduced. Sort of.
I can't tell you how amused I am by this.
In other news, I think I'm going to give "The Twin Dilemma" another shot while I fold laundry."
In other other news, I just read the first chapter of "The Lightning Thief" (the first in the Percy Jackson and the Olympians series) and found it awesome. It reminds me a bit of what I was trying to do with my Compiled Existences of Sean Everett Balewin. Only, you know, good, and involving Olympians.
