Fannish Items of Interest

Starz is going to make and air season 4 of Torchwood. It will be ten episodes, including Eve Myles and John Barrowman—and the production staff include RTD and Julie Gardner. It should be in summer 2011. I’m really not interested after Children of Earth. (Plus, we don’t have Starz, and Comcast won’t give it to us, but that’s a whole other issue.)

Moffat is interviewed by his son.

The 8 Most Depressing MST3K Episodes. #2 is Manos—I would have put that at #1.

The TV Tropes Meme. You post your username, and people say what TV Trope fits you. Feel free to blame me if you get trapped in TV Tropes for the rest of the day. My thread is here.

Requesting prompt ideas for the Finish-A-Thon over here—for some reason, I accidentally friends locked it. It’s unlocked now. If anyone's not sure what the Finish-A-Thon is, follow the tags. It should explain things.

Eh, I can take or leave Starz!TW, particularly as you say after CoE. I don't get Starz either, but the only thing I miss as a result is the (http://www.angryalien.com) bunnies (http://twitter.com/thebunnies). (As I was saying to a flistie on Twitter, Torchwood!bunnies would be hysterical.) It would be a curiosity to see how this new series pans out, but I'm not expecting marvels.

Starz? Um, when I did have cable, I didn't exactly associate it with quality entertainment, not like HBO or Showtime. Mostly titillation. Like Torchwood needs more of that. Maybe it's changed.

Cute interview.
