Okay, look, here’s the thing: Doctor Who travelling to some alternate reality where he meets Bugs Bunny would be incredibly cool in a very strange, and possibly acid-induced way. It’s not happening here. But they do show up in the same post here, so … just deal with it.
First up, Doctor Who’s second special of 2009 aired on Easter:
Honestly, it looks boring. I hate to say that, but it does. I hope it turns out better than the preview. It would be a real shame if David Tennant’s tenure as the Doctor ends on a set of lackluster specials after such a great run of episodes. Time will tell, I suppose.
On to the rest of the post… thanks to a friend pointing me to the clip from Saturday’s Easter Bunny post, I have rediscovered a treasure trove of classic animation on YouTube. I had to include one of my favorite cartoons, and the best game of baseball ever played…
For an amazing analysis of this game, check out this amazing post.

It was boring.
Actually it was OK, it did remind me a little too closely of the Langoliers (that’s probably spelled wrong) which in itself seemed lazy. And then there was no impact on the overall storyline of Dr Who except for one forced reference that has really been done to death already in the show.
The biggest problem I think is that the show is consistently brilliant so that when an average episode comes along it is really a let down but still better than most other shows. I also suggest that knowing that Tennant is winding down his tenure has taken a bit of the wind out of the sails.
I like that Dr Who is generally a very clever show, there was nothing clever in this episode.

That’s annoying. Hopefully I’ll get to watch it tonight. For some reason I’m having a hard time burning it to a DVD, and my wife refuses to watch it on the computer.
Seems that every season has a clunker episode. That really hurts when your season is just a few specials, though.
