Youtube Rec: That Awkward Moment When…

The Fan-Made Doctor Who Trailer for Series 8 is better than the Official Trailer for Series 8. From the same John Smith who brought us that infamous “WhoLock” Trailer, comes a teaser for new “Doctor Who” which supersedes, by far, that measly 15-second trailer from two weeks ago via the BBC. Already at almost 400,000 views on youtube, there’s a good chance you’ve already seen this one…either way, we’re making sure that you do. Because this is one fan trailer you don’t want to miss. “Doctor…

Sherlock is a Dick

Ramblings of a Time Traveler summarized BBC’s Sherlock for us and honestly, they nailed it. This image missed Larkable’s coverage of the fantastic article, but it definitely gives some credibility to Rambling’s analysis. But honestly, haven’t we all wanted to do this just to get someone to freakin’ spit something out? I get it. I understand. I get you, Sherlock!

Jeremy Piven, Misusing “Cumberb*tch” Since 2014

Some rather poor planning and a forgetful announcer at a recent panel discussion means Benedict Cumberbatch shone while Jeremy Piven got the shaft. During his appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live this week (3/19), Jeremy Piven (of Entourage fame) related a recent experience at a Critics Q&A event where he was promoting his BBC show Mr. Selfridge, They said, “we’re gonna share the Q&A with Sherlock,” so I said, that’s fantastic, I love it! I go and do some interviews and then they guide me to the stage, in…

Peter Capaldi for Only 1 Season? What?!

Can it be? Is this true? Rumor has it Peter Capaldi is going to be a one season pony?! Now, this might all be hearsay. We shouldn’t jump the gun. But Zap2It released that this might just be the case. “Capaldi is rumored to be a one-season doctor, in order to steer the show in a new direction.” That’s right, I’m shaking my fist and yelling twice! What the hell, man? You can’t just jerk around our emotions like this! Just last week I had…

A “Doctor Who” News Roundup: Whoniverse Con Canceled, Matt Smith Loves Kids, Peter Capaldi Surprises Fans and More!

This is fairly out of character for Smith, who regularly appears at fan events and conventions. The…
