Quote of the Day

[featherynscale]

From Dr. Who (of all places.)(The Tom Baker era.)(brought to the forefront of my consciousness by lexpendragon):

"Ask me if I have a plan."
'Do you?'
"No, now ask me why."
'Why?'
"I can be very dangerous when I don't know what I'm doing."

Dr Who

[rfunk.livejournal.com]

I've only seen two Dr Who episodes all the way through.... or maybe it was two 2- or 4- or 6-episode arcs.... anyway, those were the two completed ones written by Douglas Adams ("The Pirate Planet" and "City of Death", both of which starred Tom Baker), and I didn't need to, um, watch any backs to get it. Though I guess one (or maybe both) is part of a larger "Key To Time" arc that I didn't catch.

There may be a difference between the standard serial format and the format I saw though.

I do feel like becoming a Dr Who fan automatically commits one to decades' worth of episodes, which is a bit overwhelming to me. I have a more modest long-term goal of seeing all of the episodes script-edited by Adams.
