Gotta talk about the new Dr. Who episode

I just finished watching the new Dr. Who episode.

WOW.

The show truly has gone above and beyond it's former days. Serious kudos to the writers, effects people, and of course the GLORIOUS actors. I love what they did with the theme music.

I found myself getting misty when everyone connected to the archangel network and simply thought with pure ( Read more... )

My friend AJ and I are so itching for a Who convention....

You know, after that episode - I just wanted to call a safeword too. :-P
