Doctor Who Story xx – Torchwood series 2

Kiss Kiss, Bang Bang I’ve gotta say, the old lady saying “Bloody Torchwood,” might be my favourite part of the series. SPIKE! He breezed into that bar. Gwen needs to tell Jack that he needs to be honest with her if she’s ever going to trust him again. Oh fuck you, Jack! Stop telling people that your history doesn’t matter. The stupid western vibe is ridiculous, but I enjoy it. Glad Doctor Who has some good make-outs, thanks to Torchwood. Oh, Ianto is having none of Jack’s bullshit. Maybe not, he did accept his date. Aww, he killed Jack. :( Is it good to throw a bomb into the rift?… Read More »Doctor Who Story xx – Torchwood series 2

Doctor Who Story 188 – Voyage of the Damned

Time Crash So this is a Children In Need special that bridges Martha leaving the TARDIS and the TARDIS crashing into the Titanic. It’s a fun one, so I’m quite excited. I like when the Doctor talks to the TARDIS. TEE HEE! It’s PETER DAVISON, aka, the Doctor’s father in law. It’s really weird the Doctor married his own daughter. The soundtrack is great. Hahaha, the Doctor thinking the Doctor is a fan is fun, and mentioning LINDA. “No, no beard this time, but a wife.” “I was always trying to be old and grumpy and important, like you do when you’re young.” This is such a good eight minutes… Read More »Doctor Who Story 188 – Voyage of the Damned

Doctor Who Story xx – The Sarah Jane Adventures Series 1

Revenge of the Slitheen part 1 God no. The Slitheen and more fart jokes. That’s a worse principal than the one in the film I just watched, Moxie. The Slitheen can control candle light? This is kind of a charming episode. That little pop sound as he exited his skin suit was great. Revenge of the Slitheen part 2 You are in a car. The child Slitheen is adorable. Why does Sarah Jane’s basement have a single licence plate on the rafter and it’s from Ontario? Doing some more research, there’s a theory that it’s a tribute to Sidney Newman, creator of Doctor Who. Or maybe TVO, who aired so… Read More »Doctor Who Story xx – The Sarah Jane Adventures Series 1

System software from developer “Apple Inc.” has been updated.

Apple wants end users to know what they’re authorizing and what system/kernel extensions are running on their computer. Yet I got this message. I have no idea what it is and what I’m authorizing. I know it’s from “Apple Inc.” but that’s it. There’s no GUI to show you what system/kernel extensions are running, so I have no idea what it is. I can run systemextensionsctl list but that gave me: I can run kextstat and I get the following, which doesn’t tell me what is pending approval or if any of them are unapproved. How am I supposed to know what is? Am I missing something? Am I supposed… Read More »System software from developer “Apple Inc.” has been updated.

Doctor Who Story 187 – Utopia/The Sound of Drums/Last of the Time Lords

Utopia Jack gripping onto the TARDIS screaming “DOCTOR!” Is great. Chantho is a terrible concept. David Tennant’s gleeful smile at the thought of exploring this world is the best. I love Martha and Jack together. Still using projectile weapons at the end of the universe. The Professor seems to recognize the TARDIS. The Doctor can be angry, too angry. God, the flashing of Y-A-N-A is horrible. I really like Derek Jacobi as the Master. The Sound of Drums I don’t think Russell Davies understands how parliamentary democracies work. John Simm’s scowl face is perfection. The comical time bomb attached to the TV is so Looney Tunes. That was a lot… Read More »Doctor Who Story 187 – Utopia/The Sound of Drums/Last of the Time Lords

Doctor Who Story 186 – Blink

That is the best opening of Doctor Who history, I think. Though it’s also the best episode, too. “I love old things, they make me feel sad.” “What’s good about sad?” “It’s happy for deep people.” That is the stupidest thing anyone’s ever said, and of course it’s written by Moffatt. The creepy moving weeping angel, between shots is so great. The Doctor on the DVD is great, and the guy in the video shop telling the screen “go to the police, you stupid woman!” I’m surprised that Sally is able to get into the police garage without an officer. It’s convenient he lives until after he leaves. I love… Read More »Doctor Who Story 186 – Blink

Doctor Who Story 185 – Human Nature/The Family of Blood

Human Nature This story starts so well! How bold of a lady to ask the Doctor out. It’s 1913, know your place, Matron! Matron, Martha’s a physician, she might know more. There’s something about this story that really feels like 1980s Doctor Who. Creepy looking dude is about to get creepy. “I said hello,” could you be any more British? I think the drawings are the first time we knew for sure that the TV movie was considered canon and Paul McGann was the Doctor. Ugh, little girl with balloons. I love his parents being Sidney and Verity. Creepy guy is so creepy! The Family of Blood The Doctor ringing… Read More »Doctor Who Story 185 – Human Nature/The Family of Blood

Doctor Who Story 184 – 42

I just noticed as the Doctor fixes Martha’s mobile phone that she has a landline. I feel bad for Martha’s mother. Wow, this is a boring episode. Not as bad as I remembered, but so so so boring.

Doctor Who Story 183 – The Lazarus Experiment

Don’t touch Martha’s undies. You’re an asshole, Doctor. Martha has more than proven herself. Creepy dude creeping. “Do you think I’d spend another lifetime with you?” Wow dude. Martha’s mother should be concerned by the Doctor. This episode is better than I remembered. Not great, but not so terrible. Tee hee, he reversed the polarity. How did playing the organ save the world? We’re half way through the season and Martha’s only now a companion.

Doctor Who Story 182 – Daleks in Manhattan/Evolution of the Daleks

Daleks in Manhattan Oh, those New York accents. Are the pigs related to the ones from the Slitheen episode? Pretty rude to walk through a community and talk about the people as if they aren’t there. *gasp* There are Daleks! This is my favourite “Manhattan” story… Panels of Dalek bumps. Evolution of the Daleks Aww, I liked Solomon. “Never waste time with a hug.” Oh Doctor, you’ve never been more wrong. Oh the Frankensteinian dropping of the bodies from the ceiling. Now, do they remember their military training from World War I? Or were they injected with Dalek military training altered for a human form. I want a Dalek gun,… Read More »Doctor Who Story 182 – Daleks in Manhattan/Evolution of the Daleks
