It’s pretty typical for me to shove down my daily frustration and press on, to the point that when something even remotely sad happens on TV, I immediately become a sobbing mass of humanity on the couch, trying to hug a cat that wriggles away, leaving me to clutch an old throw pillow.

I want all of the Doctor’s rescue party to have spin-off shows. Nurse Strax could be like an intergalactic Nurse Jackie, only without the drug addiction/adultery angle.

By Teresa Jusino – Doctor Who and Christmas go together like marmite and cheese. Or marmite and jam. Or whatever the hell English people eat marmite with. The point is, they go together well. Since new Doctor Who started in 2005, there’s been a Christmas special following each season, a standalone adventure with the Doctor that usually finds some alien or other invading Earth on Christmas with the Doctor there to save the day. Usually, US fans of the show have to wait months after these specials have already aired in the UK (or hours until they can sneakily download the episodes from teh intarwebz).
