DOCTOR WHO-INVASION OF TIME part 5

  DOCTOR WHO-INVASION OF TIME part 5   DOCTOR: Take the others back to the Tardis. LEELA: Oh no, I'm not leaving you again. DOCTOR: Please. LEELA: No. Every time I do, you get into trouble. DOCTOR: That's right. Trust me, please. LEELA: All right. Come on. I said, come on.   LOVE IT! Again, almost the entire thing has Tom-isms but also Tom as his most serious as he threatens Borusa’s life…holding a gun on the man in order to get him to deliver the Great Key to him. We’re not yet told what the Key will do. I also love Rodan and ABOUT TIME…or one of the writers of it, feels she’s annoying. She’s not. I love her fixing the TARDIS up to the induction barrier. Apparently there are TWO defenses, the transduction barrier is the first, then the quantum force shield. Although K9 offers back up at least once, we never see him stun or kill a Sontaran. I imagine his ray might not do a thing to them? In any case two of the Outsiders…and two high ranking ones that Leela tru

BATMAN ep 61: THE PENGUIN'S NEST

  BATMAN-The Penguin’s Nest   The opening with Gordon calling Batman while Bruce is in the telephone booth next to Gordon is hilarious.  Dick drinks milk in the restaurant.  Burt is a very lucky man. While his problem persists, some of the stuffing is coming out the side of his right leg. Chickadee, Penguin’s coat or hat chick girl, has her own theme song, briefly as she ascends the pool ladder, ready to drop the suitcase containing Chief O’Hara into a pool that will soon be electrified after the bullet riddled bodies of Batman and Robin fall into it in the cliffhanger. She also seems to talk in a sort of bird song and like many of the gun molls of the villains, she’s useful to the villain, taking O’Hara prisoner by gun point even if she can’t shoot straight. BTW the abandoned Navy Rec Pool Area looks like it might be from an old ABBOTT AND COSTELLO movie, IN SOCIETY perhaps?   The plot is a good one and comes out of the August 1946 comic book. One thing however: Penguin se

DARK SHADOWS 97

  DARK SHADOWS 97 Nice location work of Vicki leaving Collinwood and walking down some steps. Where are these steps in relation to the main door? She goes to Sam, who’s singing a song, that has something like, “…down in the sea…” in a husky voice he sings. Carolyn, the biatch, gets one IDK. Carolyn is mad at Vicki for being in Bangor in the hotel at the same time as Burke. While nothing seemed to have happened, Vicki doesn’t explain where she spent the night and gets at least one zinger in to Carolyn, who seems to go back and forth at liking Vicki and NOT being her best friend. Liz seems to be covering up that SHE is Vicki’s mother or knows something about Vicki’s past while insisting she does not. She even says that the painting of B Hanscombe does not look like Vicki and gets Roger to go along with that but Carolyn assumes it is a painting of Vicki. Vicki tells Liz that Liz always avoids questions about the past. Earlier, Roger tells Liz that 18 years ago he was away at school and
