Time Has Gone all Wibbly Woobly Hello faithful readers! Sorry I havent posted in a few days, for those of you who wish to hear a little about my life, keep reading, for those of you who dont just know I have a TON of new and exciting content slated to go up in the next few weeks, so check back soon! Still reading? Awesome! So life got crazy quite quickly, I have dividend my last two weeks between writing my final paper for my last real grad school class, although I still have to do a final graduate paper and a comprehensive exam that will take a year to work on (sigh), studing for a spanish language examj (como se dice Im going to fail the shit out that test) and spending time on the road for work. If you have been reading my blog for a while, you should know that one of the perks of my job is that I get to trave to fun and exciting locations, like Newark, or Ft. Lauderdale! These last two weeks I have been on the road almost everday, in New Jersey, New York and Im on my last night on my last trip in Boston. This brings us to the picture above, I only brought my dress shoes and a pair of chucks, so I rocked the grey chuck/grey suit look while walking to all my programs, who says David Tennant is they only bro who can rock chucks and a suit (everyone). All that said, my paper is done, my travels are done, and once this exam is done failed, I can commit the rest of my summer to MisguidedGeek. I have a lot of cool things coming up, so stick around!

Smith and Tennant at 50th Anniversary Rehearsal. I havent had much Who here in some time, mainly because you guys dont me me to get you excited.  We have started season 7.5, and are building to the 50th Anniversary spectacular which, as EVERYONE KNOWS will feature a return of Tennant and Piper among others.  Its, exciting, I know, Im there with you.   Yet for all the 50th Anniversary buzz, thats all its really been.  Just buzz.  But here, we have concrete, photographic proof that THIS IS REALLY HAPPENING!  These are great times to be be alive people… great times.

Many Expressions of Ood Do the Ood really freak anyone out except me?  They seem nice, and innocent until, like hungry stoners finding out that Twinkies aren’t made anymore, red-eye out and go on a rampage.  I dont like the Ood… there I said it.

Anatomy of a Dalek Because I have not yet seen The Power of Three and thus cannot give you the official opinion of Misguidedgeek, I present to you instead this awesome Dalek Anatomy rendering.  I found this randomly on Imgur, but I find it interesting that its dated in 1998, two years after #8, but a full seven before #9.  This could just be fan art, but it looks to be more of a prop design, a quick Google search showed nothing on “ARP” in relation to Doctor Who.  Anyone have any thoughts? - Imgur

Doctor Who:  Town Called Mercy  I finally got a chance to see A Town Called Mercy and once again, this has been a nice addition to this season.  The group has a chance to flesh out this very different Doctor, one whom they keep saying has been “on his own too long” but has to this point still relatively been the same Doctor we know and love.  There are some great moments showing both his disconnect with Amy Pond as well as his overall disconnect from the “mercy” and humanity that has been bestowed on him through his interactions.  It was a lovely little episode, and I liked, even though it was only for a moment, you got to see a little of the wrath of the Doctor, something Tennant had down pat, but Matt Smith has never been able to get his head around.   The most interesting thing I noticed, and at first thought it was just me, but I think the opening sequences are getting darker.  I had the other two episodes recorded and just looking at the openings, they seem indeed to be getting darker.  I started to dig around the intertubes and found the below on Reddit: Visual Proof!  It does indeed appear as if the opening scenes are getting darker and darker.  I have also noticed flickering lights in all three episodes.  This could just be wild speculation, but my guess is that this is the thread which ties this season together, the idea of darkness or the lights going out. What do you guys think, just a coincidence, or a clue to something more sinister?

Doctor Who:  Asylum of the Daleks Recap I trust everyone had a splendid labor day weekend, now we are back with as spoiler free a recap as possible of the Doctor Who season premire entitled Asylum of the Daleks. The premise of this episode is that the Daleks need the Doctor (an Rory and Amy as well I guess?) to help them destroy the “Asylum of the Daleks.”  The Asylum is where they keep all their crazy, nutzo Dalek cousins who are so out there that they scare the established Dalek coalition, kind of like that one pyromaniac uncle that you don’t invite to Christmas anymore.  They need the Doctor because he ‘aint afraid of no Dalek. At it base, this episode revolves around the tormented relationship between the Doctor and the Daleks.  The Daleks are the Doctors first enemy (unless you count the caveman Kal from the very first episode, the Daleks appear in episode 2), and I have seen their relationship compared, somewhat appropriately, to the Batman and the Joker.  They have fought each other to a stand still, neither can really destroy the other, and it may be said that their very existence makes the other stronger.  This is really just another chapter in their sick, weird relationship. From a wider angle, this is just another fairly fun-filled, exciting romp, yet it maintains the dark undertones of loss and fear that is common in most Moffat’s run with the Doctor.  It is a great way to kick off the season, and although I haven’t seen many of the old series, this one may set a record for the number of times the words “Doctor Who” are uttered (just in case you forgot what you were watching).  Im hoping next weeks “Dinosaurs on a Spaceship” will be a little more whimsical, and a little less dark and brooding.
