There are few things in the entertainment industry that I get downright excited about. Aside from Jane Austen flicks – Doctor Who is my fandom. Yes, the geeky, sci-fi show my daddy made me watch as a kid (and which I couldn’t stand at the time), has become my all-time favorite show! It quite happened by accident… but it did, indeed, happen.
And I am hooked.
That being said — Over 10 years ago, we removed cable (and all television channels) from our home, so we have been enjoying the seasons of Doctor Who via Netflix.
On Saturday, it was the show’s 50th year anniversary(!) and they aired their very special episode “The Day of the Doctor“!
We did not get to enjoy it with the MILLIONS (yes, millions!) of other viewers that tuned in – – BUT, that’s okay… because tonight we are heading to our local theater to watch it in 3D!! Woot! We’ve been awaiting this day for a long time! And we’re ready to dress in our geek garb and attend our Doctor appointment tonight!!!
*insert school girl giggle squeal*
UPDATE:
The Day of the Doctor in 3D theaters was fantastically epic!!

Ah – let your geek out!
This cracks me up. I have not ever seen the show, but my sister-in-law us a die hard fan of it just like you. Have fun tonight!
lol Yep, a die hard fan. It just kinda sucks you in. 😉
My husband was a huge fan of Dr. Who. We were excited (or he was) when they brought it back, but the new episodes are full of homosexuality which is a big dissapointment, so we won’t watch the new shows.
Actually, Missy, they are not “full” of homosexuality. But, yes, there are a few references.
You may have seen the episodes with captain Jack in them in the last part of season 1 and I think beginning of season 2. There was a bit when he was on there but not much since.
Okay, 1. I LOVE IT!! 2. I am totally, totally jealous that you got to see this in the theater. We watched it at home. It did not disappoint, I laughed and cried it was fantastic.
lol Agreed! It did not disappoint! 😉
