Monday Frivolities

Jul 20, 10:10 AM

I know what you come to this site for. It isn’t snark and wit and trenchant observations on the follies of life on this Earth, it’s for news of Doctor Who! It’s okay, you can admit it. Anyway, here’s a Daily Mail article on the new Doctor and his new companion. My judgment? Not bad. At first the bow tie made me twitch, but it’s not one of those dorky stiff bow ties like the Nation of Islam dorks wear (is it racist to call members of Nation of Islam dorks? Don’t care). And I love the shoes. I was getting sick of the Converse trainers. (I believe the girl is wearing them this time.) Also we get to see the outside of the “new” Tardis. I’m actually less than thrilled with it — it looks too new to have been bumbling around the universe for centuries at the hands of a guy who barely knows how to drive it, and wasn’t the Tardis a beat up old time machine about to be scrapped, the equivalent of a car up on blocks, to boot? Well maybe there’s some handwave explaining that.
