First and most urgently: Does anyone else find the theme song disturbingly reminiscent of Torchwood's? I kept expecting Wedgewalk of the Cardinals.

There are two K9s, right? One for each present companion who ran off with his dog?

I am terribly pleased you're having fun. Isn't Narvin wonderful? He's not as flashy as Brax, but he's quite lovely. Once you're done with the second season, you can read the fic I wrote where he and Romana have a baby together.

I freaking love Narvin. I don't even mean in a love-to-hate kind of way; I just plain love him. Well, all right, I guess in a love-to-hate way, too, but he's such a magnificent bastard.

Does Want.

Oh god, you are going to love S2 and probably even S3 as well.

Your prediction is coming true as we speak.

The opening theme IS disturbingly like Torchwood's. It makes me wonder about Conspiracies.

PS All will become apparent with Torvald by the end of Blind Eye. It's your reward for enduring Sissy Pollard.

PPS Now I really want Seven/Brax, despite it being Incest in my head.

Just one more thing Cardiff has ripped off from Big Finish?

Oh, it became apparent, all right. I THOUGHT IT WAS JUST A CRACK THEORY I HAD. WHY DIDN'T ANYBODY WARN ME? I freaking cried, dude. Why'd they have to go and pick the most awful, soul-destroying way to go about it, too? NOT FAIR. *bawls for them both*

(I actually found Cissy exponentially less annoying than Charley, as a love-to-hate freebie, because the script didn't depend on my thinking her wonderful.)

I have heard there is a fannish theory that he and the Doctor are brothers. I can see it, I think.

The nice thing about the Eight/Charley/C'rizz audios and the Six/Charley audios is that Charley has been knocked off her pedestal quite a bit in those and is allowed to be jealous and petty and foolish and all that and the scripts acknowledge when she sucks.

Which is a long way of saying that you should really listen to Brotherhood of the Daleks, despite its Charley-ness. Because it is AWESOME and she's not as annoying.

One of the MA authors implied it quite heavily, in fact.

So is the Gallifrey series something you'd recommend?

YES, YES, A THOUSAND TIMES YES. Seriously, I am more enthusiastic and batshit about Gallifrey than I was about the most recent series of Nu Who--and I adored Donna. Gallifrey is fantastic, occasional forays into nonsensical crack and all. It's sole flaw, as far as I'm concerned, is that they don't offer it as a download. :(
