A number of the middle-published books are all quite good as well (it was around the point when Jacques was sort of tempted to tweak the formula and nearly did it a couple of times, and then chickened out). "Outcast of Redwall" has a great set-up, "Pearls of Lutra" is probably my favourite in the entire series (as a…

"It’s all the feel-good liberalism and species essentialism of Star Trek but with British animals!" this is the best one-sentence summary of Redwall ever, which includes why we loved it as kids and what troubles us when we go back to it now (but still love it)

I was at Cardiff Castle earlier this year (while carrying bags from the Doctor Who experience, since that was really the reason my friends and I were in Cardiff….sue me) and one of the people there rather randomly announced that they had filmed part of an episode in the main quarters, where Jenna-Louise Coleman…

Yeah, that's what bothered me - I *love* "Life on Mars", but Simm's Master was just all camp and didn't play to his ability to tone it up and also tone it down. I was just disappointed because he's such a talented actor, but his Master was so much less deftly done than it could have been.

I've thought about this a bit (because it's the very reasonable response as to why there are no P&F reviews) and I'm not entirely sure it would necessarily be this way for P&F.

See? It even sounds crazy when YOU say it!

Phineas and Ferb! Phineas and Ferb!

Well, "Three Nights in August" was about one series, so I'm sure he could manage it.

I love how like 90% of these are SVU.

I always feel bad about feeling that way, though, because I love John Simm (Life on Mars is one of my favorite cop-type shows ever), but I just genuinely don't like his portrayal of the…

Roughly ordered, honourable mentions are not:
The Waters of Mars
Midnight
The Doctor's Wife
Blink
A Good Man Goes to War

A Good Man Goes To War just felt really epic the entire way through (and I mean "epic" in the classic sense of "epic poetry", not in the modern sense of "OMG SO EPIC). I really, really like that episode and I will stand by my opinion.

NO SPOILER SPACE?!?!?

He's the voice of Ferb!

Clearly the TARDIS doesn't like Clara because she's actually a dalek, like in asylum, and she doesn't realise it yet.

I've rewatched "Dinosaurs on a Spaceship" a number of times, but that's mostly because, well, dinosaurs on a spaceship and Egyptian queens and big game hunters and Indian space agencies and stuff.

BD Wong!

In the flashback episode, they revealed that Victoria's mother's boyfriend was a paedophile who molested her as a teen and that her mother basically did nothing (and actually made her take the fall for shooting the guy). I assume that this kid is that guy's kid (or another, similar, guy's kid), in which case the kid…

Based on this episode, Emily is A from Pretty Little Liars, since that mask which Victoria's "son" was wearing was very familiar in shape…

I love this theory and will now expound it everywhere.
