Geeeeeeeek with us!

Alrighty, [livejournal.com profile] ginkgo and I are going to be hosting Dr. Who nights every Tue night from now until... whenever. We have last season of the new BBC production on various optical media, and will be starting with the first episode this very Tuesday night, 1/10, at 7pm, at Chez Us. Most of you know how to get here, drop us a line if you need directions.

Since it seems that basically nobody around here is a Whovian, so come have some fun and get sucked into the largest, most complex, convoluted, and topsy-turvy time travel series you've ever run across. You think Star Trek continuity is wacky... ha. 43 years of stories here, covering television, radio, and print. Amazing stuff, and believe it or not, they now have a props and set budget.

This sounds like a blatant ripoff of the long-standing Ann Arbor "Geek TV Night" which is currently going through Tom Baker while we wait for the new BG episodes!
Copycats!

Nuh. Uh.

You didn't just go and challenge us to a geek off, did you?

:D

Naw, I just wanted to give you crap for not starting this tradition when I was in town!

Would have loved to. :) Unfortunately, it wasn't until now that we were able to get ripped copies of CBC broadcasts sent down to us. ;) Heeeeeeeey... you're close to Canadia, in theory... don't you get the CBC airings?

We get one CBC channel on my stolen cable, but I honestly never thought to check if the new one was playing. Our local downloader is harvesting the archives that apparently the Beeb is putting on their site for free. We're also many Dr's behind y'all. Of course, as of a month ago, you're now one Dr. ahead ;)

BTW, wouldn't mind an update on the geographical probabilities of Mr & Mrs Smith!

Yeah, CBC has been showing the episodes (I think) a week after BBC in UK. Not much of a lag, at least. We even have the Xmas Special that just aired. :)

Geoprobupdate: No fricking clue. :)
