I like the Star Wars movies and have seen them all multiple times, but I'm not a huge fan that knows all the details. One thing I've always wondered about that isn't covered in the movies is why was Amadala elected so young? I know kings and queens on Earth were very young at times because they inherited it, but Amadala was elected.  Read more »

45 years ago today (well, the 23rd... It's actually the 24th already there. ) Doctor Who premiered. Year after year the BBC brought us new shows, new companions, and new Doctors until its unfortunate hiatus in 1989. Still the show went on with books, audios, magazines, and more. Even a horrible attempt at a comeback movie.  Read more »

Have you folks seen the trailer for the new Star Trek movie due out next summer? What do you think? I'm on the fence... I'll probably watch it and I keep thinking it can't be worse than Nemesis. But I'm not expecting great things. It looks like it might be interesting in a Trek history sort of way but it didn't really "Wow" me.

You may notice that I skipped over Unquiet Dead. I watched it some time ago and never had time to do a write-up. Then I didn't have time to get back to my weekly watching, either. So it's gotten a bit fuzzy. I do remember that I liked it better than I remembered liking it, though.  Read more »

Ok, this is old but I just saw it and I thought it was hilarious:

Continuing my trip back in time to the start of the new Doctor Who, I just watched End of the World. I loved this episode when it first aired and loved it just as much this time. This should have been the first one. There's action, aliens, character building. It gets off to a great start and just keeps going.  Read more »

I'm not the sort that watches the same shows over and over again. Not only do I barely have time to watch a show once, I'd get bored watching it again too soon. But some years have passed, now, since they brought back Doctor Who, and I've been thinking about watching the series again from the start.  Read more »

The fact that we're all fans here is great - but, what makes us fans? Give us a list. Maybe you've seen something that the rest of us have missed. This genre is all about passion - let's hear what has had your heart skipping a beat.

Any other Doctor Who fans out there? While hubby was channel surfing the other day, I noticed that Sci Fi is only a few episodes behind. That's awesome! Of course, I have to get my fix as it comes out, so I don't wait for it to air on TV here. Still that's a vast improvement over the months behind the UK we used to be.  Read more »

Yesterday's ep was awesome! Only one more ep until Christmas, though. UK schedules kill me. 13 eps plus a Christmas special each year just isn't enough Who.

Curious if anyone else out there is watching? Most people I know look at me like I'm nuts if I talk about Dr Who. LOL!
