 | 11:01 am - Drakyndra is looking at spoilers. And tl'dr.
School Reunion recap is up. It's as tl;dr-ish as ever, but you have got to give Jacob kudos for his final line:
"Next week: SHIPPER APOCALYPSE!"
Yes, make those shippers explode!
In other fandomness, I is currently reading up on spoilers for the Torchwood preview. Since it isn't Doctor Who, I don't mind being spoiled, so go me. Also, about the Big Huge Spoiler that most people are keeping secret - I shall refer to it, but not actually say what it is. So this won't make much sense unless you know it.
Despite everyone going "OMG IT'S A BIG HUGE SHOCK!" I have to say that I had guessed it. I'm not sure whether that says more about my abilities of guessing plots, or RTD's writing.
That said, from what I've heard about how it's revealed - that's a big shock.
And I want people to tell me more about the Who refs in it, dammit!
Current Mood:  entertained

Apparently the TARDIS is incontinent. That's one of the Who references, from what I can tell! Aw, the poor darlings getting old! :( I shall have to duck in and have a look, just to see how the US lot react. More or less sane than the UK and downloaders? We shall see.
I also want to see the recap, since Jacob has admitted to loving the ep.
Yeah, it was sort of... when I heard there was a Big Important Thing, this is what came to mind. I'll watch it, yeah. True. I know Madam Bitchy of the OG has an account there under a different name, but I can't recall what it is.
I live in hope. But am readying the popcorn Sunday, UK time - which is Monday morning for us. But, yes, if you give me a CD on Monday I can burn it for you. I probably won't end up grabbing them until Monday evening, anyway.
(There are two episodes this week, and I believe they are slightly longer than Doctor Who, so they mightn't fit on one disc) Gah, I hate being a US Who fan (The others in this catagory tend to make us all look like idiots, especially with their posts to places like the link you provided.) An other reason for me to avoid the main haunts of fandom.
As for Torchwood, I can't even get to the BBC's vid portians of the Torchwood site & I have to get my eps via torrents or wait until boxsets are out & pay like 50£ for it (I think that is the going rate plus shipping.) I've not been aoiding spoilers on the comms but I don't want my pov to be colored more than it already is before I see it b/c of other opinions. Nah, most of the US fans are quite sane. Like all fans, it's the bad ones that are memorable, though.
I shall be obtaining Torchwood the same way I obtained Doctor Who, mainly because we haven't a clue when Australia will show it - or if they will. And I don't mind finding spoilers, because it is not something I care about as much as Who. Yet, anyway. Oi! Big huge spoiler? I filtered off the torchwood comms because they were killing my flist. Where is it??? | | From: | drakyndra |

aeshna_uk has a big huge spoilery review of the preview screening in her LJ. Top post, can't miss it. But big spoiler means big, so read at your own risk. Where can I find this big Torchwood spoiler? (I don't have any Torchwood comms on my friends list in vain effort to remove the temptation to look at spoilers and I'm finding it isn't working and I want to know anyway). aeshna_uk's last LJ post has a spoilery review of the preview screening. Don't blame me if it spoils you, okay, because these are big spoilers. Any and all responsibility for me being an impatient spoiler junky is entirely on me *grins* Much thanks for the link. The big spoiler that cannot be named will hopefully spawn lots of ace post-tPotW pre-TW dark!gfic. (Well, I can live in hope.) ZOMG HOW DID HE FIND OUT! ...The angstfic that's going to be written. *headdesk* We shall have to discuss this further once the episode has aired. I'm worried I'm going to spoil someone. Indeed. (I shall have to wait a bit longer until I see it, cos of "obtaining" and the fact that time zones mean I shall be at Uni when it will first be available for me) |
