Does this mean an updated “We Are The World” response? Huhdoesithuhdoesithuhdoesit???? LOL! 🙂 Does the 25th anniversary Haiti one (below) count against that happening?

Enjoyed Watching………….

…….this documentary.

Between this and “The Legend of Cool Disco Dan,” which aired a little over a week ago on WHUT-TV, I got a crash-course in D.C. history.

…….but I did feel this season felt a little more uneven than normal. It could be that it took me the whole season to adjust to the new Doctor. And boy, I said I wanted a darker Doctor, but instead I got a dark season. The good episodes were really good, Coleman showed she deserved to be the star of this season, and Season 8 was different, I’ll give it that. With more than 50 episodes into the “Nu Who,” the 50th anniversary, etc., maybe I’m suffering from “Doctor Who” fatigue.

I thought this was amusing!

NOVEMBER 18th UPDATE: This was funny, and GREAT!

And once again, “Children In Need” gets the sneak preview of the Christmas Special!

NOVEMBER 22nd UPDATE: Enjoyed this article.

DECEMBER 1st UPDATE: Okay, it was good to get these “mild spoilers.”

DECEMBER 13th UPDATE: Moffat answers his critics here.

Saw this on WHUT-TV last night! Growing up in the shadow of New York City, it was interesting to see the similarities in the contemporary histories of Black communities in NYC and DC.

I’m very happy to say that this documentary, on one of the loves of my life, met its Kickstarter goal and has been released! I can’t wait to see it!

This was one of those things I kept meaning to find and watch! It’s OK. Perhaps the problem was the producers tried to modernize the concept a bit too much. Making Wondy a post-911 thuggish solo operative was a bit jarring.

“The Ages Of The Avengers” Has Been Published!

Which is a big deal to me, since I wrote a chapter, “The Spy King: How Christopher Priest’s Version of the Black Panther Shook Up Earth’s Mightiest Heroes!”
