This week the Top 12 was introduced and then whittled down ever so slightly to the Top 11. They sang the songs they auditioned with on Wednesday night and a “party” song on Thursday for the theme “Get This Party Started”. The highlight of the week for me was Joey Cook’s rendition of ‘Fancy’ by Iggy Azalea. I’m always a fan of musicians taking well … Continue reading Idol Thoughts: The Top 12
Behold: three geeky links for your weekend: CBS is working on a Supergirl tv series and they’ve cast the lead role. The idea of an actress from Glee starring in a super hero show honestly doesn’t thrill me but I’ll try to keep an open mind. Though super hero tv shows are popular, they usually don’t hold my interest long anyway. Am I alone in this? Geek … Continue reading weekly geekly links: 1.23.15
No, not that kind of #selfie. I’m pretty sure the art of selfies is still raging strong, offering us a plethora of duck faces and inside peeks at people’s bathrooms for years to come. No, what I’m mourning is the loss of ABC’s Selfie which premiered this Fall only to be canceled in early November after harsh reviews and low ratings. Though the rest of … Continue reading Lamenting the loss of Selfie

My husband insists that 80% of the deck is this tame and good natured but … Continue reading Watch the Ladies of Downton Abbey Play Cards Against Humanity

We have seen all the of seasons of the newest reboot of Doctor Who which includes all episodes from 2005-present. We have been anxiously awaiting a new episode on BBC America since Christmas. So you can imagine we were all kinds of delighted when we … Continue reading Thoughts on: The First Three Doctors
Remember when I complained incessantly that David Tennant was lame and that the only true Doctor in my heart was Christopher Eccleston? But then thanks to Tennant’s amazing powers of brooding and a few really great side kicks (Martha & Donna) I slowly grew to enjoy David Tennant and maybe even kind of really liked him. So of course the universe could tell that I … Continue reading THOUGHTS ON THE CURRENT DOCTOR, MATT SMITH.
I know, I know, I am ridiculously behind the times and every good Doctor Who fan is caught up watching the 11th Doctor by now, but when we last discussed Doctor Who around these parts my beloved 9th Doctor had just reincarnated into the 10th Doctor and I was reeling pretty hard and feeling very disillusioned. I was not pleased with the on screen chemistry … Continue reading THOUGHTS ON THE 10TH DOCTOR SO FAR…
Dan and I recently started watching Doctor Who together. When the fall / winter series finally had all had their finales, we switched over to our Netflix Instant Queue and decided to finally see what all the fuss was about. We were originally going to go all the way back to the episodes from the 60’s but those original shows seem to be scattered across … Continue reading Doctor Who Should Come With A Warning Label: Don’t Get Attached!
