things have got so bad i've resorted to britpop

the problem with watching doctor who as a child is that a small part of your brain can never completely give up the idea that the doctor exists. if i saw a blue police box materialize out of thin air i would not be anywhere near surprised enough.

doctor who lore is insane because you would think the fact that the doctor has a brother would be common knowledge amongst fans and yet

excalibur (1981) feels like watching a play

asoiaf people i have to ask at what point did everyone become so obsessed with jaime because im about 400 pages in and. is it because of his povs in the later books or did you all see him push a kid off the roof and think yeah this is the guy

came back wrong but like when malcolm tucker got fired then returned to work and for about five minutes did small talk and offered people tea and generally behaved like a normal human being

ishiguro really knows how to leave so much unsaid whilst simultaneously painting a painfully detailed picture of a life

thinking about how the character of the doctor at their best, most selfless, and bravest is always "The Doctor" - the legend, the person they strive to be. best put by 12: "sometimes, on a good day, if i try very hard, i'm not just some old timelord who ran away. i'm the doctor". the episodes in which they fully embody this role are the ones you can imagine any incarnation in, acting pretty much the same. it's this ideal that transcends regeneration
