Television. Seriously.

In the last two days, since I've been ill and at home with no real desire to do anything active, I've been watching some of the TV I downloaded many moons ago.

I am 11 episodes into season one of the latest incarnation of Doctor Who. Based on this extensive research, I've decided that I'd like to be Jack Harkness when I grow up, if that's all right with you all. Also, I've determined that the key to successful television is a liberal inclusion of zombies of various types.

Since I've only got 2 shows left in this set, and I'm anticipating being home again tomorrow (there's a bit in an early episode where they explode an alien with vinegar and there's this gooey green foulness everywhere -- it was sadly reminiscent of stuff coming out of my lungs), I've gone ahead and picked up seasons 2 and 3, just in case.

And now it's time to go check the boy and see if he's breathing. He's slept for about the last 48 hours, basically. Does anybody in the KC metro not have this crap? For the record, I did not enjoy The Stand, and I'm feeling uncomfortably reminded of it.

Season 1 is great!

Season 2 is ok, but Season 3 is better. Unless you LIKE Rose, and then not so much. *L*

Welcome to the Whoverse! My husband and I just got through a 6 week marathon of all the old Doctor Who and they just came out with more, so we are going to go back and watch those too.

I mostly like Rose because the Doctor likes Rose, I think.

I also like Rose because she looks like an actual human being, as opposed to the women generally seen on most American television.
