Doctor Who Xmas Special! Warning: my brand of analysis/critique can be kind of squee-kill, so to get it out of the way: eee! ( Now we plunge onward with the episode talk: contains casting spoilers for unaired episodes and later seasons! )

Now if you'll excuse me, I have to go engage in the traditional boxing day argument, in which a disagreement over vacuuming escalates out of control into a sugar-fueled supernova of blame, guilt, and generalizations about moral character. Tradiiiition! Tradition! (dee dee dee de de de).

1) So I had a series of ... well, "unfortunate events" really is the best way to put it. kuwdora, bless her heart, sent me F/K art, which does, in fact, cure all things. Isn't it beautiful?

2) On the one hand, I am really, really excited about Utopia. On the other hand, I am sort of worried that it will ruin my braincanon and I will be sad. Is this what open canons are like? I have never watched a show as it happens before! It is kind of nervewracking!

3) Baaaaby squirrels! Skittering all over the porch chewing on things, all "I cans eats this? No! It is leaf! I cans eats this? No! It is pebble!"

Awww.

4) ETA: Things that are making me happy this morning:

This deleted scene from Age of Steel. OMG I KNEW IT.

Via toft_froggy, Revelation by moonmip and dulthar. McKay/Sheppard, NSFW, 'audio remix' does not even do it justice. Download. Listen. Cackle with glee. I recommend the one set to the Riverdance soundtrack.
