Patrick Rothfuss is the best :) Due for a reread this Uni holidays.

That opens up a whole lot of opportunity to write it in a completely insensitive way and offend a whole lot of trans* people.

It's not to increase the viewership, though, (though it could have that effect, and that would be awesome)...it's to make sure there's a a realistic portrayal of various genders. That came out as a bit politically correct, but if 50% of women are watching the show, what does it say when only 30%...

I notice he doesn't quote the reason for most women not wanting a female doctor. Of what I've seen, it's divided into two main camps: Those who think the writers can't do a female doctor justice, and those who follow the mainstream "but it's always been a dude why change it?" Audiences of...

I think Doctor Who as it currently stands has the potential to be a role model for teenage girls...all it needs are strong female characters...not just "companions" Characters like Jenny and Vastra, like Donna...women whose existence doesn't revolve entirely around the Doctor. Also I think...

I think they might be planning to wrap it up in a couple of seasons...having said that, I love all of the character interaction...Nathan Fillion and Stana Katic are just amazing, and the rest of the cast is pretty darn cool.

I like what he did with individual episodes...when Davies was running the show. Now all of the seasons build up with huge hints and clues and exciting phrases, and you think "ooh, what's this all turning into?" and then it's supremely anticlimactic...not all he's built it up to be...or...

I've got the Kindle Paperwhite, and it's fantastic...it turned out that it was cheaper for Uni to get the Kindle and the cheaper eBooks than it would've been to buy all the novels, so I took the plunge. The screen is super easy to read, the page-turning is really intuitive, it's easy to...

I think most of the reason River annoys people is that she wasn't terribly well written. She's got all these one-liners and a mysterious backstory that doesn't really get shown because it's just not "important" I don't think it's at all hyper-politically-correct to have a female...

While I'd love to see a female or POC Doctor, I don't want Moffat to be the one who writes it...

I know I'm a bit late to the party here, but for people saying that Rothfuss's books needed a tighter edit, I disagree. He spent a lot of time editing those books, and making sure every little detail was important to the story, whether for plot, foreshadowing, atmosphere, character development...

I wasn't incredibly impressed with this one... Individual episodes are still enjoyable, but overarching plots are not satisfying me... It's taken, what, three seasons to "finish" the River arc, but if she's coming back as a ghost, is it finished? There are still plot holes from other seasons...

It's the principle of "once together; always together"...two coins are bindable because you believe they come from the same piece of metal originally. Using two bodies would have the same general theory...Both bodies are the same as each other. So yeah, he could've used his own body, or...

I wouldn't say "plundering"...that has sort of a negative connotation. I love what he's doing with the Christmas specials. This one and A Christmas Carol are two of my favourite Christmas specials, and A Christmas Carol is one of my favourite episodes. They're just magical.

I enjoyed the episode, but I've finally realised what bothered me so much. Everything built up to in the previous two seasons seemed so much more epic than it turned out to be..."Silence will fall" seems entire-worldly, not just "we'll kill the Doctor so he can't speak." It was all just...

Update from Fiona McIntosh... [/B] Very sad news :(

Mmm. I originally thought that he'd gone and changed clothes...but now I'm thinking it might be a flesh replica of him that came back in the TARDIS. Or that the one they've been with is the Flesh replica, and the real one survives...

Ok, some food for thought... "You will be dead in 32 minutes" ...Coincidence?

Hmm... I didn't like this one as much as last week's...it seemed like there was so much left unexplained. The dolls were a bit creepy, but meh. Also...the nursery rhyme: Tick tock goes the clock, And what now shall we play? Tick tock goes the clock, Now summer’s gone away. Tick tock...
