Speaking of my Doctor Who test, I realized last night that it needs another category, in addition to "things that would be better if the Doctor showed up" and "things that would not be better if the Doctor showed up", and that category is, "things about which, if the Doctor showed up, s/he would say, 'this is bloody bollocks!', and take off again." I realized this because we watched Russell T Davies's The Second Coming, starring EcclesDoc, avant la lettre, as the second coming, and for much of Part 1 I thought it was failing my Doctor Who test, and then in Part 2 I realized that my Doctor Who test was failing it. (The truly amazing thing is that, not long after this thing was broadcast, the BBC handed Doctor Who to Russell T Davies with EcclesDoc as the EcclesDoc. Well, actually, The Second Coming is not at all the EcclesDoc's fault. It is pretty definitely Russell T Davies's fault. (Actually it is also very slightly the fault of the fact that I can't get over seeing Leslie Sharp as a zombie who stares blankly into your soul and repeats everything you say simultaneously to your saying it.) Although--spoilers! )
