Here I am now, entertain me!

Jan 18, 2009 10:47

I'm stuck home on a Sunday morning. I'm sick and I'm bored.

Ask me anything.

ETA: As my sick son watches Scooby Doo cartoons in the background -- did you know Shaggy's real first name is "Norville"? Like, I had no idea!

As it's no longer anything resembling Sunday morning, I'll understand completely if you do not answer this. But I was curious as to your pick for best Doctor Who episode ever. Of any of the Doctors. I'm just now getting into the show, you see (I know, I know, but better late than never? :D?), and have watched two very excellent episodes with Ten, and I sort of wonder if maybe some of the previous episodes were even better. ^_^;;

There are lots of eps I like for one reason or another, but that's not the same as being sure that other people would be equally impressed by them (i.e. I love Five, but other people find him bland. Your mileage may vary).

Off the top of my head, though, I'd say that Steven Moffat's "Blink" (Ep. 3x10 of the new series) is definitely one of the best ever. Atypical as WHO episodes go, but sheer genius on the whole.

You're now the second person in a single evening to rec this one (and I've had it recced to me before, even) so I'll make it a point to see it next. Thank you!

Ok, here's my questions:

1. Which new TV show have you been watching and why?

2. If you could have written any book, which one would be your pick?

3. What advice do you give to those who still struggle with the whole querying thing?

1. Merlin, because it is cute and funny and I don't know what's going to happen next, which is somewhat of a novelty for me when it comes to Arthurian legend. Also because I am just a lifelong Merlin fangirl, in practically any form or medium he cares to appear.

2. That is... really a hard one to answer. I think for right now I'm going to have to go with the really obvious and say The Lion, The Witch, and the Wardrobe.

3. I have no good advice about queries. My queries have all been terrible and gleaned me very little interest from agents. I got my agent through a referral rather than a query, or I'd probably still be searching right now!
