"So which season are you up to?" This is the test. I'm sitting at the mall food court with my cousin and his wife - my first Doctor Who converts - and I'm curious to see how far they made it into the series.
"We two episodes into the fourth season," Kay tells me. "The just fought the rock people."

( Read more... )Years ago, I read that everyone has a "secret judgment" movie. A movie that you can't help but use to judge people based on whether or not they like it. Mine are
The Royal Tenenbaums,and
Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind. Sitting in the food court, it occurred to me that I might have judgment Who companions and episodes as well. Had they said they didn't like Rose, I would have been disappointed but I wouldn't have felt the need to defend her honor.
So, what companions, episodes, or aspects of Who - if any - do you secretly judge people on?
