As always with Moffat, take everything he says with a grain of salt…
tv buzz
things you need to know: TV shows about androids are not science fiction

Doctor Who thing of the day: Matt Smith on Craig Ferguson… again
I wonder if Matt Smith would prefer to just be Craig Ferguson’s cohost.
question of the day: What do you think is the best thing on TV at the moment, and what is your TV guilty pleasure?
My TV viewing has decreased considerably since I arrived in London in January, so this is a tough one for me…
television about books… and people actually watch it

Doctor Who thing of the day: who counts as a companion?
I prefer to think of companion status in terms of an emotional connection to the Doctor…
question of the day: Can movies and television be too visually beautiful?
The Tree of Life is a “beautiful” film, even its detractors appear to agree. But so is every other TV commercial and throwaway police procedural.
Doctor Who thing of the day: after Christmas, no new episodes till October
“Six o’clock on a sunny Saturday is the middle of the afternoon, whereas six o’clock on a winter or autumn Saturday is dark and exciting.”
Doctor Who thing of the day: River Song almost got really naughty
Did we almost see River Song almost naked? We almost did.
Doctor Who thing of the day: when is the Doctor a Sontaran?
At Christmastime, apparently!
