The latest Doctor Who, Victory of the Daleks, is not a terribly original or interesting entry into the series. Mark Gatiss, member of the superb comedy troupe the League of Gentlemen, gives us a very pedestrian entry mixing two of the more tired elements of Doctor Who throughout its history – Daleks and historical bigwigs [...]
My fellow Americans, You’re about to be re-introduced to a character as old as Kennedy Conspiracy theories, TV’s the Doctor of BBC’s Doctor Who. Throughout the nearly fifty year history of the science fiction show, Americans have had to wait as much as years for their fix of the quirky, other-worldly hero who travels around [...]
I love Doctor Who, but never have the time to write about it. I still have a few episodes of Torchwood’s first season I haven’t written up, pathetically enough. So we have another new Tyrant here, Jeremy, who’ll start blogging shortly about the good Doctor. And just in time for the brand new Doctor’s season [...]
Confirming what most TV hounds already knew, 24 and Lost topped the list of LoveFilm.com’s most addictive television shows of all time.

A thought occurs to me as this episode opens: It just can’t be a good idea to take flash photos of aliens/faeries/unknown creatures at night in a woods. Just sayin’. Of course, it’s easy to say that as the viewer of a sci-fi show where the main characters battle the bad alien of the week; [...]
Given the name of the episode, we knew the mortal (well, you know what I mean) enemies of the Doctor – of all mankind, in fact – the Cybermen, would be making some sort of appearance. And the Cybermen are always utterly creepy, so we were in for a ride. They did, in the personage [...]
Really? Gwen’s first day on the job is a hunt for a sex-crazed alien who absorbs its partner just at the moment of climax? How many times, exactly, did they have to show the scene where Carys had sex with the poor schmo in the bathroom of that club? After, maybe, the second time, it [...]
The first-ever episode of the Doctor Who spinoff Torchwood has all the obligatory, here’s who everyone is, here’s what they do, here’s the new team member exposition. That’s OK, though. It also gave us a pretty good story to follow. Someone is murdering people in Cardiff. Three have been murdered in recent days, each stabbed [...]
A fan of Doctor Who since its relaunch with Christopher Eccleston a few years ago (I know, I know, I need to go back and watch the old Doctor Who; I will – in my defense, I bought my brother-in-law a DVD collection of Doctor Who episodes with the VERY FIRST Doctor ever from the [...]
