The Blogboard Jungle

     I am a big fan of great story telling no matter what genre it is, although I do have my favorites .  I have written before about trying to find shows to get into when the one's you like end , what I didn't mention is what I stumbled across in my search.  I met The Doctor when he was in his fourth incarnation as a kid when he was played by Tom Baker.  I didn't know that the thing would still be on the air some 32 years later... When you get socks for a show...that's hardcore. If anyone knows how to tell a story and keep any continuity errors to a minimum, if at all it has to be Steven Moffat.  This guy was already in my good writer list when he did his re-imagining of Sherlock , little did I know he was the show runner for Doctor Who as well and his 50th Anniversary episode did not disappoint. The intro used in the beginning was the classic Doctor Who intro form when the show first started and if you watched the docu-drama the night before...

   It's November, Halloween is over turkey day is around the corner, and soon our shows will take their holiday break that seems like forever.  What do you look forward to now?  Breaking Bad was our show of shows, anything else came second to it but now that it's over it's been pretty "ho-hum" in TV land.  So, what are you watching? If you've been too busy to get into things your friends are talking about, streaming technology can be a life saver when the cold weather comes and leaves you to occupy yourself with something new on TV.  Other than re-watching Breaking Bad its a good chance to find something new to get into.  We, for instance have just re-discovered Doctor Who after not watching it since the 80's, and +Netflix has all of them.  Another very good show is Hell on Wheels , that takes place during the reconstruction era of the United States post Civil War times.  That should be enough, but what if you need a genre break?...
