Sad gifs in tragic post responses are so gross. And I am a lover of many, many things in poor taste.
If you don't mind, I'd like to toss in *unfortch* to that request.
Absolutely. Across-the-board but particularly with respect to headlines about serious subject matters. This website definitely resorts to that affectation all-too-frequently.
Words and phrases that should be used much more reservedly or just plain banned:
I know this is a Gawker thing, but "Because reasons" or any other variation of this phrase is idiotic.
"Feels": As in "OMG, the feels!"
I'm exceptionally confused—the loss of the Ponds was so painful to the Doctor (a loss which resulted in a tombstone and an absolute moratorium on returns, something that had never before happened in NuWho) that the entire second half of the season was predicated on the Doctor's mourning. How is that "no consequences"?
I thought "Day of the Doctor' did a wonderful job summing up the issue that 11 is "the man who forgets." He's the oldest but he's tired of it all, tired of being held down by the memories of so many he couldn't save and such, his various sins so he massively overcompensates with his actions and swagger to hide his…
I imagine its almost entirely because the BBC is having to cut back on most shows funding due to a combination of less money from the license fees and the threat from the Government that it may lose even more. Much of which comes down to political pressures as the current government does not like the BBC, in part…
It would've been really hard for them. I'm not 100% sure on this, but there was a lot of talk from Moffat in the run up that the BBC only budgeted the 50th special for a 60 minute run time, and when he wanted to make a longer special, they had to spin that allotted budget out to make something longer, and shoot in 3D.
Bunch of reasons. Running another of the BBC's hugest shows at the same time probably knackered Moff up a bit more - but the main fact that is the current government is has frozen the license fee until 2016 and is rather eager to lower it, which is a big chunk of the BBC's overall budget - and whilst it's incredibly…
If you don't like the actor playing the Doctor or the head writer I don't imagine even greater output from the same would have made you any happier, would it?
The paragraph on Doctor Who is absolutely nuts. We had a marvelous 50th Anniversary special (which included an appearance by EVERY Doctor, even one we didn't have yet and one we'd never even heard of!), an entire year of specials focusing on each Doctor, specials on Companions, Monsters, a special docudrama about the…
God knows how you think they 'blew' the 50th anniversary year, Rob. What more could be done to celebrate The Doctor than a cracking special that somehow managed to not self-combust living up to the immense hype surrounding it (and broke a world record in the process, natch), a bafta-worthy drama about the shows…
The BBC and Steven Moffat Blow Doctor Who's 50th Anniversary
We also got the feature with Davison, McCoy and Baker trying to sneak themselves into the Special, which was PRICELESS!
I agree. I don't think people understand just how far Moffatt was stretching the Doctor Who budget this year. I think they did everything they could with the resources available.
A mere eight episodes
