doctorwho: The return of Doctor Who was announced 10 years ago...
The return of Doctor Who was announced 10 years ago today
Here’s the BBC News article from 2003:
Doctor Who returns to TV
Cult science fiction series Doctor Who is returning to TV, 14 years after it was axed.
The much-awaited comeback will be written by acclaimed TV dramatist Russell T Davies - a self-confessed fan.
Davies’ credits include hit dramas like Bob and Rose, Queer as Folk, The Second Coming, Touching Evil, and The Grand.
He said: “I grew up watching Doctor Who, hiding behind the sofa like so many others.
"Doctor Who is one of the BBC’s most exciting and original characters. He’s had a good rest and now it’s time to bring him back!"
The revival will be produced by BBC Wales, whose head of drama Julie Gardner said: “It will be a thrill to work with him on such a landmark TV series.
"This is very early days and it is unlikely anything will be on screen for at least two years but it is very exciting and I can’t wait to get started."
Scary’
She praised Davies - who was brought up in Swansea but is now based in Manchester - as one of the “leading writers” to come out of Wales.
The first Doctor Who - played by William Hartnell - was first seen on 23 November, 1963. He was followed by seven more, before the series was axed in 1989.
Although little has so far been revealed about how the new Doctor Who series will look - or who will be given the starring role - Davies has clear ideas of the way he wants it to feel.
"The new series will be fun, exciting, contemporary and scary," he said.
"Although I’m only in the early stages of development, I’m aiming to write a full-blooded drama which embraces the Doctor Who heritage, at the same time as introducing the character to a modern audience."
It’s a fun read.
Owen was SO excited. Like so fuckin happy. *sigh*

Buffy Meme [3/7] Quotes →“I’m standing on the mouth of hell and it is going to swallow me whole. And it’ll choke on me. We’re not ready? They’re not ready. I’m done waiting. They want an apocalypse? Well, we’ll give ‘em one. Anyone else who wants to run…do it now. Because we just became an army. We just declared war. From now on, we won’t just face our fears, we will seek them out. We will find them and cut out their hearts, one by one. Until the First shows itself for what it really is. And I’ll kill it myself. There is only one thing on this earth more powerful than evil. And that’s us. Any questions?

Me and the boyfriend sitting outside the daily show studios 3 days ago (waiting to see the show….)

- Me: I’m thinking 5 years tops. I want him to die at that desk but you know…babies and lives and stuff
- Him: And John Oliver to take over you think?
- Me: Yeah but I mean I don’t know how well that would work….he was amazing for the summer but long term I don’t know…
- Him: Are you fuckin insane? He’s PERFECT for it.
- Me: But he’s British so ya knoooooooow.
- Him: You fuckin love British people
- Me: I know. I just don’t know…..let’s just be thankful that it’s all perfect right now. He’s a great correspondent and Jon is there and it’s all going to be fine for a few years yet….

superwholockavenging: Joan Rivers called Jennifer Lawrence...
Joan Rivers called Jennifer Lawrence arrogant because Jennifer had this to say about Joan Rivers’ show:
There are shows like ‘Fashion Police’ that are just showing these generations of young people to judge people based on all the wrong values and that it’s OK to point at people and call them ugly or fat. They call it ‘fun’ and they say ‘welcome to the real world’ — and that shouldn’t be the real world. It’s going to continue being the real world if we keep it that way. We have to stop treating each other like that and stop calling each other fat.
Jennifer was asked for her opinion and she answered honestly. I find it hilarious that Joan Rivers, who makes a living by criticizing people’s fashion choices, is calling Jennifer Lawrence arrogant because she gave her honest opinion. I’m not sure that Rivers understands the definition of “arrogance”, because Jennifer didn’t say anything self-important or conceited.
I have such respect for the old guard and for what Joan Rivers has accomplished in this business but gosh she keeps saying and doing just rather stupid things.

I was at this writing conference a while back (it’s where I got my second agent so fyi those things do work out for some—me and the boy both found representation there which was really unfair to others considering but that’s another story for another time) and this agent said something along the lines of, "Oh dear lord please send manuscripts in the correct format for the sake of our eyes at least." She went on to say, "but one time someone sent in their submission in I think Arial 10 font. The story had hooked me from the first line so here I am at 2 am trying to read through and willing my eyes to be ten years younger so I find out what happens next."
And as I’m peering down at my tiny phone screen reading this fanfic shown in the smallest font imaginable with no way of increasing the size until I get home and away from my work comp I completely and totally get it.

Oh, god—was that me? SORRY! I didn’t even check the font.
Oh it wasn’t your fault at all. It’s just google docs annoying annoyingness on my phone. As well as my company’s annoying hatred of google (it’s blocked on our network).
But I figured it out. Disconnected my laptop from the network, found a random open wireless one, downloaded it to my laptop and now … Shhh I’m reading comfortably. Just missing a nice cuppa.

theatlantic: Andy Kaufman’s Best Lies This week, Andy Kaufman...
This week, Andy Kaufman made headlines when his brother claimed he was still alive. At this year’s Andy Kaufman Awards at Gotham Comedy Club, he introduced Andy’s supposed daughter, 24—who explained that the late comedian/performance artist faked his death 27 years ago.
No one with a passing familiarity with Kaufman could have been surprised that the news of his reincarnation turned out to be greatly exaggerated. Or to be more precise, fabricated: The Smoking Gun revealed that the woman introduced as daughter Kaufman was actually an actress named Alexandra Tatarsky (whose theater bio states that her work is inspired by “Russian absurdism”). Kaufman’s brother now says he’d been duped.
The stunt evoked a Kaufman-esque mixture of confusion, skepticism, and credulity. But Kaufman himself would have probably done it better. He remains in the public imagination as a hoaxter, but for those born after his death, it might be difficult to understand just how effectively he messed with people’s minds.
