Oh man I am REALLY. PUMPED to see Seven with the Sycorax. I’ve long thought that they seemed like an unmined batch of coolness—they’re this advanced civilization dressed up in rocks and nature-inspired stuff, named after Caliban (the monster from The Tempest)’s mom. I mean, come on. That’s awesome.

Actually, there are rumors that he was poisoned!

That does make sense. Thanks for replying!

Lovely article! Only thing that surprises me are the assertions to start with Series 1/5/8, since David Tennant is such a major draw for so many fans, and that the Second Doctor is only for hardcore fans—I watched “The Mind Robber” very early on in my fan-ship, and it played a major part in getting me to love Classic…

I’ve always mourned for the lack of a really good Peter Wimsey movie, but now that I’ve rediscovered Peter O’Toole, the missed opportunity physically hurts.

That we finally got to meet Beth—or at least Sarah’s conception of her—was great, just really great. This whole episode was just a pile-on of excellent things.

Thank you!!

Kinja isn’t letting me post the Pirate With A Scarf gif that’s necessary for this conversation, but no. There isn’t.

This music video was worth it because it made me go watch the original Earth Girls Are Easy. Having just finished it, I can conclude that the movie is the best thing ever.

Dollhouse. Your premise allows for mental shapeshifting, incredible acting, impossible people, and instead we get.....Eliza Dushku.

I love how they say “son of Evil Queen.” Like, not son of the evil queen. No, Evil Queen is her name.

Point/Counterpoint has immediately become my favorite io9 feature. Good job, guys.

Are you Steven Moffat?

Okay, so what I've gotten so far from the comment sections is that all of the most talked-about shows on will age badly. So what TV shows will age gracefully? Can any of them?

So there were just thousands of servants named Napkin?

Yes. Yes we are. The Tenth Doctor's suit—now that, was that blue or brown?? I've seen people argue for both! I can't handle it! Save me!

This still gives me nightmares sometimes. So, so glad this was stopped.

Knowing that one day I could just look up and there could be a small blue box with the door open got me through many a long day. Still does, I suppose.

WAIT HOLD UP I FOUND THE THING. Wild West Avengers! http://tamorapierce.tumblr.com/post/988200748…

I actually have been looking for the last two hours (not that I need to get a life or anything...), and I haven't been able to find the thing I remembered, sadly enough. The closest I got was this gif set, which isn't quite it but kinda works: http://rebloggy.com/post/my-gif-ro…
