Ha. I wish I could be. I've tried clubbing twice about five years ago, but a combination of shitty "friends", unbalanced chemistry and some strangers bullying me in the bathroom made the entire thing incredibly uncomfortable for me. It didn't end up feeling very safe or fun.

Sydney's scene is largely limited to Oxford Street in the city, (though a few people will tell you Newtown as well, but that's become increasingly monopolised — but it's really the only place to go if you're a lesbian). but the entire place is delineated in a really ugly way. There's one club for rich kids, one for us…

I thought Patrick's commentary was kind of detestable, tbh. Soured me on the show right out of the gate.

Anyone over 35. Maybe it's a Sydney-exclusive term.

Did anyone notice her go for a puff, freak out because she thought she was about to smoke the lit end, and then realise that she'd had it around the right way anyway? It's such a small detail, but I laughed.

I'm ambivalent on the facial hair, and I think the mumblecore queer genre has been largely absent from television (though it's plenty prolific in other spaces), but at first glance I found the content generally uninspiring too.

"brisk"?

I've become a little worried about how light and fluffy these episodes have been so far. I suppose that Hurricane Caroline should presage inevitable catastrophe, but that's really an exterior tension rather than something rising from the cast's natural friction. I dunno — Season 2 also lacked direction in the early…

That said, given the gulf between Stephen Thompson's work on Who and Sherlock, and how similar his scripts are to Moffat's, it's pretty freaking obvious that Moffat's rewriting those particular scripts.

Hannah appears to have one interracial lesbian couple as her friends.

And so once more, it came to pass/
That Phil was talking out of his ass

What, The Wire, Breaking Bad, The Sopranoes and… Mad Men?

Is it ironic?

Maybe all her scene were dropped in editing? She's credited amongst the cast for the episode.

Aliens In London gets a B+, and World War Three an A-.

From my copy of The Writer's Tale: The Final Chapter:

Everyone involved in the making of this story—with the possible exceptions of Christopher Eccleston and Billie Piper, who play their parts of the story as drama—thinks Doctor Who should be comedic,

Boak's not bad. He's dealing with completely new way of doing television, having to set the tone for a new show, an absolutely hectic production schedule. So the tone wobbles at time, sure. Yet, it was him that came up with Rose's entrance to the TARDIS back in Rose, the one who pushed to have that long sequence of…

And the possessed girl from last week's episode (the one that had coffee spilt on her) is going to be a regular on Toby Whithouse's new show. I'm kind of excited for it.

That'd have to make them a jizz band.
