George Carlin (May 12, 1937 – June 22, 2008)

Posted by forestdragon on Monday, June 23, 2008

George Carlin passed away on June 22, 2008 at the age of 71.  He was essential listening for thinking people.  He loved language and used it with great skill.  His most famous routine was the Seven Words You Can’t Say on Television.  A big loss for all of us.

The Fires of Pompeii-Doctor Who S04E02

Posted by forestdragon on Sunday, April 13, 2008

The second episode of the new series of Doctor Who is great. The production values have improved dramatically as have the stories. The Doctor is finding Donna to be a handful. They work well together. In the first episode Partners in Crime S04E01 they spent a good deal of the time finding each other but now that they are together it’s working quite well.

As his companion, Donna is stronger than the younger women that have been his companions in the past, even Martha is stronger now than before. Can’t wait for CBC to start showing the series here.

We have to wait now for season 3 of Torchwood. Season 2 was excellent.
