Okay. Technically, the prompt is “Favorite Alien Race/Alien Race You Would Like to Meet.” But I’m editing it a bit for today. A few months back, I went on a rant about 10 Classic era monsters I want back. Well, everything I said there still holds true. And I can easily think of at least 10 more…

Day 3: My First Doctor (Classic Edition)
I’m going to preface this by saying that it’s getting a tiny bit embarrassing that Erin’s answers have been somewhat varied by era, whereas I seem to be stuck in the early 1970s. However, if I wasn’t still stuck there today, my answer wouldn’t be completely honest. My first Classic Doctor, and, in fact, my first…
Day 3: Your First Doctor (New Who Edition)
Nothing to decide for this one, yay! I am planning a separate post about how I got interested in Doctor Who so I’ll keep this short for now. The first episode I saw was Voyage of the Damned, with David Tennant as the 10th doctor. Yep, that’s my first doctor. Kat is continually baffled by…
Day 2: Favorite Male Companion (Classic Edition)
Though the list of male companions is considerably shorter, today was another tough decision. Or at least, it could’ve been. The criteria are the same as yesterday. Does the companion get to be more than a “damsel in distress” or simply someone for the Doctor to explain things to? Does the companion get to be clever and solve…
Day 2: Favorite Male Companion (New Who Edition)
For me, this brings up the issue of how ‘companion’ is defined. If it includes everyone who has ever traveled in the Tardis, then the list of companions is quite long. If we limit it to characters who traveled with the Doctor for a significant amount of time, that narrows it down a bit. The…
Day 1: Favorite Female Companion (Classic Edition)
Choosing a favorite companion is like being asked to choose between your children. It just can’t be done. So when Erin and I put this challenge together, I already knew there would be a fair amount of agonizing in my future. How can you possibly choose only one favorite? How can you land on a single name and block…
Day One: Favorite Female Companion (New Who Edition)
Can I just mention that I hate favorites? I have been struggling for days to figure out who to pick for this one. Whose idea was it to do a project where you have to pick favorites for 30 days? (I think it was mine.) Thanks to Kat for reminding me that “favorite” and “best”…
A Challenge
This month on the blog, we are doing a 30-day Doctor Who challenge! Kat is taking on Classic Who (1963-1989) and Erin has New Who (2005-present)*. We both have trouble making decisions and choosing favorites, so this will be quite a challenge for us! One thing we want to stress is that this is a…

Big Finish announces the fourth War Doctor boxset with a familiar companion!
Good News!
Is anyone else out there as hopelessly attracted to Doctor Who tat as I am? Yeah? Well, there’s good news for you. It seems we’re about to be hit by the next wave of those adorable, giant-headed little dudes who are slowly overtaking basically every available surface the world over. Funko is set to release Wave 2…
