    I'll apologize ahead of time, but can anyone tell me who that is in the first one? He just doesn't look familiar to me...

    Also, that TARDIS one is pretty sweet... #starwars

    Nights In White Satin?

    Vader in black velvet, never reaching the end,
    Tuskens they've painted, never meaning to send.
    Boba in ways I'd missed with these eyes before.
    Just what the point is, I don't know anymore.

    'Cos I love you, yes I love you, oh how I love you.

    Gazing at Godzilla,flames from the mouth,
    Just what they're thinking through I can't understand.
    Some try to tell me, the art they cannot defend,
    Just what you want to be, Mothra will be in the end.

    And I love you, yes I love you,
    Oh how I love you, oh how I love you.

    For a second, I read the Fringe news as "a beyonce- centric episode" and was both weirdly confused and excited. #theavengers

    Smallville won't turn into Metropolis, it'll turn into Justice League and be three times the cheesy. #theavengers

    The Caprica promo would be a lot better without the hipster alternative rock soundtrack behind it. #theavengers

    Nyyyhhhh.... Must... wait... 10 more days...

    Why is it that RTD waits until *now* to start writing Doctor Who episodes I actually like? #theavengers

    @bluehinter: Maybe he's just hitting his stride...

    I flinched when I first saw his name on Torchwood: COtE, and came away mostly impressed (until about the last 90 minutes, specifically) #theavengers

    @Chuck: "Midnight" and "Turn Left" are also among my top 5 favorite Tennant episodes, and the last two specials have been surprisingly lacking in the usual RTD cringe-inducing writing.

    He does tend to whiz it down his trouser leg when it comes to pulling off big endings, but even if the final two specials are crap, it looks like WoM is a new classic in the making. #theavengers

    @bluehinter: re: classic in the making.

    Let's hope so; it'd be nice to see him (and Tennant) go out on a solid note -- as much as I'm looking forward to Moffat's run, I'm leery as to what the new Doctor is going to bring.

    When it comes to big productions, RTD can't seem to stay away from fanwank and overly happy endings. Maybe he'll bring along some of the leftover grim from Torchwood. #theavengers
