Fair points, Pat.  Like Desertpuma, I liked Alphas more because of the hints of what it is becoming (I can't be the only one getting a Magneto vibe from Parish) then because it was spectacular episode in and of itself.  It was pretty slow and dull compared to many of last season's episodes, but I think as a foundation of this season's core themes it shows promise.

Warehouse 13 I'm just glad to have back, but I don't particularly disagree with your points - I just excused the crazy leaps of logic as "benefits of experience gained working in a batshit insane place".  That doesn't excuse the plotting problems though.  Largely, I enjoyed it because I enjoy the cast (collectively).

Agreed. I personally think that "NCIS" is mind-numbing boring, but I still watch it be cause of the interaction among the main cast members.

Rumor has it that we'll finally get the first full trailer for Doctor Who's seventh series sometime tonight or tomorrow. If we do, it'll almost certainly include the long-awaited debut date for the first episode (widely believed to be toward the end of August).

In the meantime, there's this...

Have the Daleks learned nothing from what happened to the Cyberman fleet after they upset Rory and The Doctor?

with the detailed records they keep on the doctor, you would think they would have learned from the mistakes of others by now.

The BBC don't normally announce air dates too far in advance. We may be looking at a September air date.

Suppose that's possible. All signs seemed to be pointing to late August but I guess that's wisful thinking.

Does it help or hurt that the music piece "Doomsday" started to play through my head as I looked at that picture of the Doctor carrying Amy?

The answer to Rory's question is probably not going to be the Doctor

An Adventure in Space and Time: TV documentary movie about the early years of Doctor Who, commissioned to run during the 50th Anniversary celebration...

"An Adventure in Space and Time will tell the story of the genesis of Doctor Who since its first broadcast on 23 November 1963.  Exploring all aspects of the longest running science fiction series to date, the special one off 90 minute drama will also look at the many personalities involved in bringing the series to life.

"Written by Mark Gatiss, it is Executive Produced by current Doctor Who showrunner Steven Moffat and Caroline Skinner.

"Mark Gatiss, Writer, said:"This is the story of how an unlikely set of brilliant people created a true Television original. And how an actor - William Hartnell - stereotyped in hard-man roles became a hero to millions of children. I've wanted to tell this story this for more years than I can remember! To make it happen for 'Doctor Who's 50th birthday is quite simply a dream come true"."

Warren Ellis' Gun Machine optioned for TV: Don't get too excited - there's still a lot that go wrong between here and broadcast. Still pretty kewl. Wink

FX’s Cold War Drama ‘The Americans’ Gets Series Order: Beyond the core premise - which is stellar - why is this awesome? Check out John Landgraf's quote at the end of the second paragraph...

“We’re equally excited to welcome Graham Yost’s talented young Padawan Joe Weisberg as Creator/Showrunner. He joins a long line of gifted writer/producers who have taken their first shot at greatness on FX.”

Graham Yost should sound familiar. He runs Justified.
