This might be the first time I've ever watched an episode of Who that hinged on song/music, and it didn't make me cringe at all.

Both last week and this week's episode were pretty light on plot, but I enjoyed (and was moved by) this week's SO much more. It let Clara just be herself for a bit.
Smith's tear during the monologue really got me. He's been doing a great job of showing how the 11th doctor has changed; this monologue felt very different than the one we got in The Pandorica Opens, for example.
Seconded. I have so many questions about what went down on that special.
Definitely my first thought
I've actually noticed that (amelia pond's long wait aside) he's gotten a lot more proficient at flying the thing recently. It might just be me, but I always figured he wasn't quite good enough at it to pull off something like precision landing the TARDIS on a plane. Though I'm sure there had to be some sort of break…
I think a lot of it has to do with the British concept of educating and training your actors, whereas in America there's more of an emphasis on being discovered and just having 'what it takes' to be an actor. This could explain the difference in versatility between Brits and Americans, as the Brits have actually been…
The Ghost is Seen is one of my favorite episodes of television I've seen in a long time. I love how it was able to be moving without letting any of the characters off the hook. Honest and articulate at the same time. I'll miss you, Enlightened, but I'll be forever grateful to you for introducing me to Mike White's…
Yeah, I totally understand why they went with the mix that they did. It's way more cohesive to the sound of the entire album. So I've got both, but I think standing alone the alternate is the winner for me.
Such a tough call, but I'd have to go with Terrible Love, but the alternate mix from the deluxe version. The low end on that mix hits so much harder. I also have a deep love for just about anything from Boxer.
The only Nerdist podcast I've ever heard is the one he did last year with Maria Bamford, right before her new comedy special came out. I thought that was a great talk, though that may have just been my Maria Bamford affinity.
I marathoned both seasons over the past two weeks, just in time to get caught up for tonight. I really hope this isn't the last we see of Enlightened, but if it is, what a nice way for it to go out. I loved the balance of the final montage with the Krista scene in the middle (but had to watch it through my fingers.…
What a strange film for there to be a Macgregor/Bremer Trainspotting reunion. Might make it worth it.
I agree, I've seen them with and without Padma and he really brings a lot to the show.
The lack of Chicago date here makes me hopeful for The National at Lollapalooza. Can't wait to hear their new stuff. Every time their version of Rains of Castamere is played over the Game of Thrones Season 3 commercials I am reminded of their awesomeness.
Everyone on stage looked like they were having such a good time, it was infectious. I feel like I would too if I got to play Talking Heads songs whilst participating in a pseudo conga line.

Absolutely an album that comes alive when you see it in concert. Saw them at the Chicago Theatre, it was so much fun.
I feel exactly the same way. Gorilla Manor's best moments were pretty fantastic, but sometimes I lost the hook for all the harmonies. So far though I'm really enjoying Hummingbird, particularly Three Months and Colombia.
It's too late. He's seen everything.
