Spoilers...

Is it just me or did you notice that he beckoned to Melisandre first? Caught himself at the last second.

Some of my favorite eps are from Martha's season. Donna's got some great ones too. I just watched the last of Tennant's episodes, and I immediately want to go back and watch them again. SO great!

Ooh, interesting! That will play well into the Flesh two-parter, in which the Doctor supports the Flesh copies becoming people in their own right. Amy may not take that well, though.

Madam Kovarian said that the Doctor that was referred to (in the song, I think) wasn't the Doctor, but Dr. River Song, correct? Or am I misremembering?

Where's Inheritance? Paolini's conclusion to the "Inheritance Cycle" drops Nov. 8.

Overall I enjoyed the book. I'm not sure if it was ADWD hangover, but I couldn't get into it for the first 50-60% (yes, I'm a Kindler). I just was not engaged with the plot at all. I think it wasn't until Ferentinou started getting a grasp of a larger terror plot, Ayse gained traction in her search for the Mellified…

Overall, I'm glad Doctor Who is back! And I was very excited to see this ep because of the hype about Alex Kingston's performance, which was delightful. "I was on my way to a gay gypsy bar mitzvah for the disabled when I suddenly thought, the Third Reich is rubbish!" I think she created this wonderfully unsettling…

Yes! Love her.

The khal is head of the khalasar, and the khaleesi is his wife. Khal Drogo is khal of the largest khalasar, and they travel across the Dothraki Sea (grass) to Vaes Dothrak. In Vaes Dothrak, no one is allowed to carry weapons or shed blood. So...everybody got that? :)

I scored some cherimoyas at the Santa Barbara farmer's market a couple of weeks ago!
