Little Doctor Who prattling

- New Who: Ponds' departure.  That's pretty much what I thought would happen after seeing the preview capping the prior episode.  Which makes me wish I had blogged my hypothesis beforehand, so that I could now point to the entry as evidence and say "see, interwebs, I called it."  I'm probably not the only one who saw that coming though.

- Classic Who: I am still dilly-dallying through the first season (1963).  Fortunately for me, given I didn't prefer the first few plot arcs (each of which spans 2 to 6 ~25-min episodes), I've found I'm really enjoying the arcs starting with "Keys of Marinus."   I finished "The Aztecs" a couple days ago and loved it, though it's probably riddled with historical inaccuracies; the visuals were gorgeous, the issues regarding human sacrifice were fascinating, and I loved the secondary characters.  On that note, "How to Make Cocoa," a DVD extra hosted by badly-animated Tlotoxl and Tonila.  I love those guys.

- On an unrelated note, "Sarcastaball."  XD  South Park may be crude, but it's almost never not clever.
