The Story of River Song

One thing that I don't like about episodic science fiction is when they introduce a character in an episode that we're supposed to love and then kill them. There's never a strong enough emotional impact. They only existed for an hour of TV time and then are gone. Why should I care about them?

Steven Moffat's turned that old story on its ear by killing River Song in her first appearance and then bringing her back throughout the Doctor's travels through time.

We've seen it through his perspective, now see it through hers:

Gender Bender

Oh, Adventure Time, how much do I enjoy thee? And then you do this and make me enjoy thou more.

Thank you!

Would the fans be called GLeeCs?

Yes, it's a mash-up of Green Lantern and Glee. And I would totally watch it.

Doctor Who Infographics!

So far, there are two.

First, the Doctors:


Second, some villains:


Personally, I'm looking forward to the companions.

Torchwood!

How crazy am I? I like Rhys. Suck it.

Tyrion Lannister...

...the true hero of the books.

A Making Of...

First I watched this, then I had to go change my pants and clean myself up.

LEAKED! The LOST finale!

Fanmade LOST Finale Promo

I don't know if anyone else on this blog has been following LOST, but this fan promo did an excellent job of showing the tone of the series.

When the series ends on Sunday: I don't expect all the questions to be answered. I don't expect a neat little bow tied around the plot. I only expect to enjoy the end of the ride, just like I've enjoyed the ride up until now.

"I really loved you in Arrested Development."

Two Muppets invade the Lost production offices and get to ask one question:

Colonel Angus

Some Criticism

The stereotypist (John Campbell of pictures for sad children) takes a look at Star Trek: The Next Generation. He totally accurate and not kind.

More Reasons to be Cheerful

It's official: HBO has given a green light to a 10-episode series based on George R.R. Martin's fantasy series Game of Thrones and released the first image from the show, which you can view below. Production begins in June; no premiere date was announced.

The first official picture, below:

When Where is When

Siskoid explains the Prophets:

In a nutshell, it is this: The Prophets perceive time as simultaneous the same way we perceive space. With one look, they see all of time much as you can look at the entire room you're in. This is a useful metaphor to understand just what is going on inside that Wormhole.

...

Here's a question: When did they send the Orbs to Bajor that gave them their colorful monicker? Answer: It's a "when" for us, but it's a "where" for them. Think of the world of the Prophets (the Wormhole and areas of space they can survey from it) as a continually updating reality. ... If we could be made aware of the timeline as a single room, we would see that they put the Orb on a certain shelf. As linear beings, we call that shelf the past though the information comes from another corner of the room which we call the present or future.

7) Miss Piggy Sexually Harasses Rudolf Nureyev

The first big celebrity coup for the show was celebrated ballet dancer Rudolf Nureyev -- after he went on, they started getting more stars willing to come on. But you'd think they would've stayed away after seeing a towel-clad Nureyev get hit on by an equally nearly naked Miss Piggy. And, since Nureyev was never the best actor, his creepy revulsion was almost certainly genuine.

Later, he realized he'd never become a spy.
