Is it just me or was there supposed to be a connection between the flickering of the flourescent lights in the building and the on/off strobing of the photic stimulator?

I have a theory…
…that the little girl is, in fact, both Amy's daughter, is not at all related to the Doctor, and is also a Time Lord.

My favorite gag
of the night: "How many shoes do you think you're wearing?"

The best of all possible worlds
As I've watched Lost's curious combination of free will vs. fate, the existence of the alternate reality reminded me of Leibniz's Optimistic philosophy - that is, the world we live in is the best of all possible worlds. As awful as life can be, the theory goes that any other reality…

Constants and variables
If there's one thing you can generally count on Doctor Who doing, it's returning to the Daleks and the Cybermen. No matter how thoroughly defeated, destroyed, timelocked, or otherwise written out of the show you think they are, they'll be back.

My wife and I were both paralyzed with laughter at the "Oh man, I have to go." bit. This whole episode was absolutely hilarious.

line of the night: Anything that starts with the word "whee" is just a fun suggestion. Like the Constitution and "Whee the People."

hmm
While I recognize the popularity of Halo, as FPS games go it really wasn't particularly innovative. Mediocre storytelling, standard FPS gameplay, and straightforward mechanics somehow combined into a game that was just average enough that it became hugely popular.

I, too, like this show
…and yet for all that I enjoy it, I tend to agree that there's not really a whole lot to critique here. It's not going to break new ground in the procedural genre, it's not going to deliver mind-blowing dialogue, and it's not going to show us too much we haven't seen before. On the other hand,…

Totally floored
Tonight's episode was a perfect example of just how intelligent television can be while also being vastly entertaining. Adelle's speech to Topher about him having no morals was amazing… the words themselves were devastating judgment enough, but her cold, matter-of-fact delivery just made it so much…

I like this show
I've followed this show from the beginning; my initial reaction was to view the show's mechanics in much the same way as other procedurals. The "science" on most procedurals tends to be exaggerated (or completely made up) for dramatic effect… but after watching the first couple of episodes, I realized…
