Bald Jason's Musings

There is no arc word for this season of Doctor Who. I'm putting that front and center because I keep getting asked, and no matter how many times I tell people (expecting the news to spread like Courtney Love's legs), it still keeps coming back (like Cortney Love's STDs). What this means is that, there will be no "Bad Wolf" / "Torchwood" / "Mr. Saxon" phrase following the characters around... But don't fret all ye fans who have come to love these little puzzles within the show. There is an arc in Season 30. It's just a bit more complex than what we're used to! There is something in every episode this season (of Doctor Who - the parent series of the Whoniverse), that contributes to what will be this year's finale. People watching the episodes are already picking up on these things. Add to this, that things mentioned in the previous 3 seasons of new Who, will also be getting a pay off, and it seems like things are building towards something huge! Hopefully they get it right and it all comes to a fantastic climax, and since they're revealing these things in interviews, I'm guessing they're on track.
For Mollie, there is a reference in the newest Doctor Who episode ("The Fires of Pompeii") to a previous Who adventure, but it's one of the few serials I DON'T have! Damn it! I would have watched it and sent it to you pronto (it's a first Doctor story) but I can't find it anywhere as of yet. Maybe they'll release it soon, so everyone can understand what the Doctor is now spouting off about. :-0)
I want to write more about last night's episode, but I want to go do some other stuff, so maybe I'll come back to this later.
