Doctor Who
I wish Saturday would get here already, LOL. I want to watch the next episode of Doctor Who. I did at least find out today that my season pass from Amazon's instant video service apparently also covers the second half of the season (despite being listed as "season 6, part 1" in their description), because the prequel for "Let's Kill Hitler" was added to my queue today.
I'm thinking I'm going to have to do a mini-marathon before the next episode, though. Maybe on Thursday and Friday, so I can get ready for the rest of the season.
There was this theory that someone posted over at Gallifrey Base last week which was copied from Digital Spy that seems to nicely tie together everything that's happened this season, what the Christmas episode may be based on (it's supposed to be based on a Christmas-type story, "though not one you'd usually think of", that has been a major motion picture within the last 10 years), and the "totally obvious thing" from "The Eleventh Hour" that the Doctor noticed but which we haven't been paying attention to.
While some think that obvious thing is that Mrs. Angelo is wearing the same brooch as River was at Amy & Rory's wedding (personally, I think it's just reusing a prop myself), the part I think (and the person who wrote that theory thinks) is important is the Doctor's line about the crack -- how it's two pieces of time that were never meant to touch. Everyone thinks the plot with the cracks has been resolved with the finale of last season, but no one's really commented on what two parts of the timeline were touching in that crack that weren't supposed to... There's more to that theory from Digital Spy, but I don't want to ruin anyone's enjoyment of the second half of the season, and I don't know that theory is correct anyway. But if it is, then Moffat's done a terrific job of hoodwinking all of us over the past two seasons, and I think it's a very satisfying outcome to everything, if he can pull it off.
