Friday Nights

For the past few months, we’ve been having Dr. Who Friday nights with Kenny and Elaine. It started as a conversation one night about Torchwood: Miracle Day. I think we were all together for a birthday party or something, and I mentioned to Kenny that I was looking forward to watching the premiere episode of Torchwood: Miracle Day. He said that he had forgotten to TiVo it, but I had it on mine. We decided to watch it, and thus was born a conversation which turned into an idea for watching episodes of Torchwood: Miracle Day together followed by two episodes of Dr. Who starting with Season One of the New Era Doctors.

I’m glad we did it. I really love Dr. Who, and the more we get into it, the better it seems to get. I really like Rose, although from what I’m told, I’ll like some of the other companions even more. I find that hard to believe, but then again, I guess I’ll find out.

I’m glad to have this event on Friday evenings with them. Sherry and I really enjoy having a regular even on Friday nights, and we switch-off with them to have it one week at our home and the following at theirs and so-on. Tonight was at our home and we went out for a nice dinner at Pavarotti’s prior to sitting down for the two episodes of The Doctor. I was quite bushed and was fading into the second episode so we cut tonight’s watching down to only two episodes, but that sets us up nicely for the two-part season 2 ending followed by the season 3 Christmas episode. I can’t wait!
