Doctor Who thing of the day: the Doctor makes the cover of Entertainment Weekly

I’m funny this way, but I think a publication like EW should be at least slightly ahead of the curve, not years behind it.

question of the day: Will you watch the Olympics opening ceremony?

If so, what do you expect to see? Will you watch out of genuine interest, or in a roadside-accident-rubbernecking sort of way? (I confess that this is mostly my motivation for watching.)

question of the day: What moment of television during your lifetime has been the most dramatic, or had the most impact on you?

Mine is definitely 9/11, followed closely by the Challenger explosion. Both of those events had me riveted to the television for days and made me feel personally impacted…

What do you think? Is this even newsworthy? Is there any reason for the BBC to have bothered with such small changes?

So not enough Jaime Lannister this series. I hope this oversight will be remedied in upcoming episodes…

question of the day: Does it matter if “reality TV” is fake?

Does actual authenticity matter more with some reality shows, such as House Hunters, which was recently outed as fake, than others, like Jersey Shore?

Obviously, what looks like another early-21st-century gal is just biding her time until she reveals herself to be a superintelligent cabbage. Right?

Game of Thrones S02 E08: “The Prince of Winterfell”

I love seeing so many fully human women onscreen. They’re not role models… at least not any more that men onscreen have to be.
