new new who drinking game!

[_thirty2flavors]

All right, starwhales! Things are starting to pick up in the Whoniverse, as you may have noticed. Series 6 begins on April 23rd. Torchwood: Miracle Day begins on July 8 and in the noble Whoniverse tradition has a hilariously photoshopped poster. We're due for a new series 6 trailer this weekend I think, and I know something called "the prequel" to The Impossible Astronaut airs tomorrow at 4 and there is a teaser for it on the BBC Doctor Who website. (I cannot, however, explain the logic of a teaser for a prequel for a series premiere.)

Since this will be our second full season with Steven Moffat as showrunner, I think it's safe to say we can pick up on some of his favourite quotes, tropes, themes, etc. And you know what that means: DRINKING GAME! All in good fun, obvs. In the spirit of the RTD-Who Drinking Game we brought you earlier, I give you:

The New New Who Drinking Game!

Take a drink when:

• Something is described as "wibbly", "wobbly" or "timey-wimey"
  
• There is a time loop
  
  • Someone explains that they only knew how/when to do something because they remembered seeing themselves do it first (2 drinks)
• The Doctor delivers a dramatic speech about how badass he is
  
  • ...and it works (2 drinks)
    
  • ...and it doesn't work (3 drinks)
• Eleven describes a clothing item as "cool"
  
• Eleven twirls
  
• "Geronimo!"
  
• "Come along, Pond(s)!"
  
• Eleven stands between the Ponds with one arm around Rory's shoulders and his other arm around Amy's shoulders
  
• Amy flirts with someone who isn't her husband
  
• Rory wears flannel
  
  • ...and Amy wears matching flannel (2 drinks)
• River says "Spoilers!"
  
  • River references and/or shows off her diary (2 drinks)
• "Hello, sweetie."
  
• Eleven and River act like a married couple
  
  • ...while simultaneously keeping the true nature of their relationship incredibly ambiguous (2 drinks)
• Eleven wears a new hat
  
  • ...River shoots off his new hat (2 drinks)
• A character introduced as a child becomes a hot young adult
  
  • ...and promptly tries to get it onnn, bow chicka bow wow (2 drinks)
• Ocean life! In SPACE!
  
• The villain isn't truly evil, they're just acting according to their nature
  
• When the episode ends, some long-buried childhood fear has resurfaced to haunt your nightmares forever

Of course, there are some old faithfuls regardless of showrunner:

• Companion in danger!
  
• It's the Daleks!
  
• Suddenly, the entire world/universe/multiverse is at stake!
  
  And as always, drink the whole bottle if:
  
  • The episode ends and you have no idea what actually just happened but you thoroughly enjoyed it anyway
  
  
  Did I miss anything? Anyone want to draft up a Torchwood equivalent?
