Day #8 - A show everyone should watch

Chuck and Doctor Who - crazy, illogical, full of inconsistency and plotholes, and with a tendency to over-angst, but gloriously fun, hilarious, and with a fantastic set of characters/actors. I genuinely believe Doctor Who can appeal to everyone in a way that no other show can - it's a blend of genre, and can shift between tones so quickly, and Moffat's series is doing even better at ensuring that keeping things understandable for kids doesn't mean there's nothing for older people to enjoy.

I can’t think of people who haven’t caught on to either - even the people I know who don’t like TV shows have asked me about these (I now have two classmates who are massive Chuck fans!). They're just so much fun. And the actors are so good! And the relationships!

Speaking of Doctor Who, by the way - remember Matt Smith?! :D I'm sorry, I just listened to the Doctor Who episode on the Meet the Filmmakers podcast this afternoon, and Matt sounds so happy about everyone constantly cheering and applauding at things, and every time they woo! he woo!s right back at them, all excited and everything. At the point of that recording, the series hadn't premiered yet, but even by that time the crowd loved him enough to yell, "Stay!" ♥ Matt, Matt, Matt. I just adore you.

(Have we talked about how wonderful he is with that kid at the Who Proms this year? He is so delightful, you guys!! MONOLOGUING IN CHARACTER! LIVE! WITH A LITTLE KID! YOU ARE PERFECT.) (I am truly, fully considering the idea that Eleven/Matt may be my favourite Doctor, now?)

In other news, studying is hard, and boring.
