So I'm watching Game of Thrones, and I tell my brother 'I'm just waiting for someone from the BBC version of Robin Hood to walk past.'

Half an hour later, the actor who plays Will Scarlet (who also plays the creepy smirking boy in the doctor who ep Human Nature/Family of Blood) walks on and I'm all OMGWTFBBQ!

God I love when genre actors keep

It's such a mind frak when that happens.

In my mind, I start thinking of insane, nonsensical crossovers.

I can't wait to see the first ep. I love that series so much.

I feel terrible because I have not read the books, but I think I need to.

They are dense in a way that I'm not sure that a TV series without 22 episodes a season can pull off. Wonderful yet dark. They are probably the most influential fantasy series in the last decade.

Yeah, I probably should have read it before now. But then again, I just recently picked up Dune, so I'm behind when it comes to the important works in fantasy and sci-fi.

ALL THE TIME
Also, I just watched that ep. I'm incredibly intrigued. And they have a lot of balls to go the first 6 minutes of the episode with no dialogue.

ITS LIKE EVERYONE HIRES THE SAME FIFTY PEOPLE. ITS CRAZY.

I though so too. I'm way glad the pacing picked up. I mean, I had no idea what to expect, but a lot of it felt gutsy. Then again, it is HBO.

This is amazing.

Also it seems like half the actors on any given BBC show has been on doctor who.
