Dr. Who: "Human Nature"

[feliciakw]

See my icon? *points to screamingly frustrated Dr. Joel* This would have been my reaction had I not had a sinus headache at the end of Dr. Who last night. Not necessarily because it was the first of a 2-parter. That would have left me screaming, yes. BUT . . .

SciFi Chanel, in its infinite stupidity, has decided to air marathons, as per usual for a federal holiday weekend, next weekend (Labor Day). Hence the brilliant and handsome Doctor has been preempted by an SG-1 viewer's choice marathon. Now, I've got nuthin' against SG-1. But that's just stupid. Especially when they're going to air . . . excuse me? . . . Painkiller Jane in its usual spot. What "brilliant" mind in the scheduling department came up with *that* idea? I'd like to beat them soundly about the head and shoulders with a scallion.

The upshot being that I've got to wait two freakin' weeks for the second half of Dr. Who.

That's just all kinds of wrong.

So I toddled over to kerravonsen's LJ to see her comments on the show. I see that I could seek out the book on which this ep is based, but I was afraid to read your entry, kerravonsen, because of the spoiler warnings.

I'll have to figure out a way to distract myself for the next two weeks.

Btw, loved the ep. Am tempted to compose the 2nd half in my head in the meantime.

Thanks so much for the offer, but we don't have a video iPod. And sadly, I know nothing about sending TV shows over the 'Net. I know just enough about computers to be dangerous and/or frustrate myself when something doesn't work. Heh.

Re: SciFi: I have nothing to add except that I'm still holding them accountable for the early demise of Farscape. They shall be forever tainted in my opinion by that colossally idiotic move.

(Though I suppose I should give them some modicum of credit: if it weren't for SciFi, I never would have discovered The Sentinel, and hence met many cool people in the fandom.)
