All I Want For Christmas Is You, David Tennant

A friend sent me this cute Dr. Who holiday animation, but I was almost more impressed by one of the “related videos” next to it. Please watch as HogwartsHonorRoll juxtaposes images of The Doctor and Rose to the festive tones of Mariah Carey’s “All I Want for Christmas Is You” (a favorite holiday jam of both myself and Mr. Springer).

From John Hurt’s interview with Premiere on Indy 4:

George is a bit socially crippled really. Not good with people. So I just left him alone.

Smart move there, John.

Which beloved genre series supporting player was seen chowing down at delicious LA lunch spot BLD? This bemuscled buccaneer really knows how to accessorize: he was sporting an army-green jacket, an eye-catching gold bracelet…and an extremely uncomfortable-looking neck brace. Maybe he made Starbuck mad? Either that or he twisted himself in one too many knots over the shocking, season-ending twist regarding his character.

One more clue: Sarah thinks he’s cute.

Wow, one great way to both enrage the remaining fans of a dying franchise AND destroy a handful of lives at the worst possible time of year is to kill the official Star Trek website and fire all the staff a few weeks before Christmas.

Nicely done, Paramount!

Happy belated birthday, Tom!

Happy belated birthday, Tom!

Just noticed that yesterday was Tom Spurgeon’s birthday, so a happy belated birthday to one of the comics blogosphereoverse’s top correspondents. After all, were it not for him, none of us would even KNOW when Beau Smith’s birthday was, so it seems only fair that we return the favor.
