Doctor Who: Journey's End and Other Stuff
1)
After reading the spoilers I really thought I was going to hate this episode but while definitely not that great (sorry RTD your best finale was definitely from season 1) it was tolerable and I liked seeing everyone working together. Actually that is probably why I enjoyed the episode and for Donna's moment of awesome (I love Donna...although Sarah Jane has sort of surpassed her as my favorite companion. In fact I think Sarah Jane has surpassed the Master as my favorite character)
The Doctor/Rose thing cracked me up. Honestly I thought it was pathetic (but then I was also too amused to really care) and I really feel RTD did not do the Rose character justice at all making her whole story be about falling in love with the Doctor. In fact after how he completely screwed up poor Donna in the end (she deserved so much better than that shitty ending) I will say the only companion he didn't ruin was Martha. And it looks like Martha and possibly Mickey will be joining Torchwood next year. That might actually get me to watch if this is true.
But like I said I did enjoy seeing everyone together like that (Including the Torchwood crew and Luke). And OMG K9. Okay my favorite scene was when Luke was all excited when they were flying Earth back and he was holding K9 oh Luke ♥.
2) Anyways Bones is actually contemplating making a sequel to FMA. Can I say please NO! I mean what the hell could they do for a sequel? They can't adapt the manga unless they completely start over and I don't really want to watch Ed & Al in WWII (I like WWII stories but not when Bones completely screws it up to tell a nonsense story) So for the love of humanity PLEASE NO

3) Finally I saw Spring Awakening on Broadway yesterday. My first choice was Spamalot but that didn't work out. But for having not heard anything about this show before it turned out absolutely amazing (it did win the Tony in 2007). The story is quite a bit more dramatic than Spamalot is (I can say this w/out even seeing Spamalot) but the music was incredible and I even cried at the end. And I don't even remember a Broadway show making me cry before.
Here are clips and music from the show
