True, but blowhards often spout off about whatever's on their mind, so there're probably a fair number of people tuning it to see if he'll address the issue, in a predictably hilariously horrible way.

I'd guess it's less "show of support" and more the equivalent of "slowing down as you come upon the hideous freeway smashup."

Yeah, but I mean their "main / normal" view with the large covers should have the same functionality (or, scratch that — an actually-functional version of that functionality). It's not like drag 'n' drop is BRAND NEW and only works in a vertical list format.

SO, SO EASY. I mean "drag and drop sorting" isn't exactly cutting-edge tech, you know? And that manual-sort list format is AWFUL — for the crashing issue you note, plus once you DO get it sorted, the cover image thumbnails are literally smaller than my *actual* thumbnail and fuck if I'm going to read all the titles to…

I would kill for a "do not ever show me this title again" button. Also, as long as we're wish-listing, STOP FUCKING REARRANGING EVERYTHING IN MY QUEUE. The only way to manually order them is to switch to that shitty List view with a teeny teeny cover and then a line of text that takes up the whole screen width. Wtf?…

Um, I think I'm going to have to read all these now…

Why TY. It just occurred to me as I was writing that — the Pushing Daisies comparison is pretty obvious, but was missing the glib sourness and the absurd villains telegraphing their intention and OH MY GOD, PRINCE HUMPERDINCK WOULD FIT RIGHT IN.

I never knew anything about this, at all, as I was already in my late 20s when the first books came out. But HOLY SHIT, the show is SO GOOD, and NPH is just a screaaaam. It's like Pushing Daisies + The Princess Bride and I want ten seasons of it.

Oh shit, you're right — it's been a long damn time since I watched those. But yeah, I enjoyed HE/CB on their own merits. Not A+, but enjoyable.

Well, the Hungry Earth/Cold Blood *at least* gave us the holy trinity of Vastra, Jenny, and Strax, so I can forgive any narrative shortcomings there. I really love Broadchurch, tho, and he did some solid work for Torchwood, so I'm willing to go into his tenure with high hopes (and pleased at the departure of Moffat,…

Well "The Fountain" was horrifyingly boring, so. Yeah.

I quite enjoy a lot of his writing for DW, Torchwood, and Broadchurch, but okay.

Either I misread the intent of italicizing "It" in the quote above and wrongfully assumed Threepwood was sketching an "It" / "SotL" mashup with an evil shapeshifting clown-demon transvestite serial killer…or your reading comprehension skills are negligible.

I would watch this. 100%.

That is definitely cause for concern. Moffat is often shitty at writing even -straight- female characters. VERY happy that Chris Chibnall is taking over after this season.

It's a "kids' show" in that it doesn't have overt gory violence or sex, but it's not like "aimed squarely at the elementary-school demographic." It's more on par with a fairly sophisticated YA novel.

DEFINITELY even the current "old" Doctor. Omg silver fox city. A friend texted me the other day with "just read a completely random bullshit rumor that Richard Ayoade would be the next Doctor" and DON'T TEASE ME LIKE THAT. But personally I'd love to see him regenerate into a Time Lady, because of all the expected…

Well, I'm talking about *buying* it via iTunes etc, not renting — and if it were something I was really excited about, then I can see paying like $40 instead of the usual $20 to purchase it while it's still in theaters, assuming the price would drop back down to $20 after the typical 3-4 months when stuff usually hits…

I'd rather wait like 99% of the time. Theaters are just irritating AF. But I'd rather not wait at all - I'd rather buy it on iTunes for $20-25, a week after it comes out. Longer waits before home availability isn't going to get me into a cinema, but they occasionally DO make me lose interest entirely. I wonder if…

That's why I said "I don't know the numbers on this."
