Can I say "hiatus" on TV?

Well, kiddos, the time has come for me to shut this big ol' blog down. You see, between work, and the press, and the press' blog, and updating my myspace page alla freakin' time, and finding a better place to obsess about Doctor Who, Monkey has finally finished the taco.

I'll leave the blog up for a little while, at least until I archive everything.

So thanks to everyone who posted comments and read my nerdy ramblings. It was... fun.*



*You KNOW I had to work in a nerdy ending reference, right?

A nerd with a life. It's like a talking dog.

One of the downsides of being addicted to British TV is that I only get to watch what BBC America lets me watch.

This leads to some severe programming frustration. For instance, take this weekend. Eight million Brits got to watch the premiere of season 3 of Doctor Who on Saturday. But I won’t get to watch it until July. So instead of sitting in my dim living room in rumpled pj’s, watching David Tennant snog the new companion, I was having a fantastic dinner with a group of fun new friends, in a hip restaurant down the street.

Okay, bad example. But still, it’s frustrating.

UPDATE: I finally broke down and watched it on youtube. It was good. Thanks to the bloke who took pity on us yanks and posted it in ten-minute installments. If I ever get back to England, first pint's on me.
