Blackpool, DT, Doctor who

I got to download a few episodes of the BBC miniseries "Blackpool" yesterday. I ended up getting them out of order, so I watched episode 1 and then 3. Actually, "watched" is an overstatement. I skipped past everything except the scenes with David Tennant, the next Doctor Who.

I came to the conclusion that all was well and good for the future Doctor Who episodes because DT was adorable as can be. His accent was not what I want the Doctor to have-- sounded a bit too young-- but he was still adorable overall. Very pretty-boyish, but in endearing way, not a snotty way. Like a puppy or something. And then there was a kissing/making-out/up against the wall scene, and I was thinking "this is going to be useful for inspiring Doctor/Rose fics" until...

... they started singing.

Yes, it's a musical. And because I'd previously skipped past any scenes that didn't have DT and entirely missed episode 2, the fact that it was a musical was complete news to me.

So they're singing while having sex.

And I finally have to turn it off because I can't. stop. snickering.

Then I turn it back on and fast forward some more, and there's this scene where DT's cop character and a bunch of others are coming up to arrest these two punk kids, and they all start singing and walking like zombies or something, and all I can think is that Sweet, the singing demon, must have got to them! I swear it looked just like a scene from Buffy's Once More With Feeling.

I'll watch the whole thing later I'm sure.

The TV Geek Test

The TV Geek Test (by rashaka)

(answers may overlap; no looking up names. This is for scripted shows-- The Daily Show doesn't count)

How many tv show producers/creators can you name off the top of your head? List them.

( I got 7 )

How many television scriptwriters can you name off the top of your head?

( 13! And that's without remembering the XF writers I used to know )

Now look at your list. Time for SCORING!

A.) If you can think of more than 3 tv producers/creators, you're well-informed about the shows you like.

B) If you can think of more than 2 tv producers/creators AND at least 2 scriptwriters who aren't also on the producer list, you are a geek.

C) If either of these lists exceeds 5, you're a big geek.

D) If you not only know that some of the episodes were written by stars of the show, but actually know which episodes in particular, you're an ubergeek.

E) If you watched that one episode of Angel just because Samwise Gamgee directed it, you're the best kind of geek.

F) If you know the terms "Ultimate Drew", "Whedonesque", or "got the mustard out", you're a Buffy geek, and I know exactly how you feel.
