nerdlynews: Doctor Who on cover of US magazine, Entertainment Weekly. Entertainment Weekly’s report below. How do you know when a TV show has become a cult phenomenon? When its (often comparatively small) ratings are eclipsed by the wild ardor of its fans. Take the case of the British science fiction show Doctor Who, whose current lead, Matt Smith,is this week’s cover star. The now 49-year-old Who is hugely popular in its homeland but has always enjoyed a more select appeal here — not that you know that from the devotion of U.S.-based “Whovians.” In 1983, 7,000 people attended a Doctor Who convention in Chicago and over the past couple of years the time-traveling “Doctor” has received a bordering-on-the-absurd number of onscreen shout-outs from Community, Criminal Minds, Craig Ferguson’s The Late Late Show, Supernatural, and Grey’s Anatomy, whose creator, Shonda Rhimes, describes herself as a “psychotic” follower of Matt Smith’s time travel adventures in this week’s cover story. “It’s not an obscure show anymore,” says executive producer Steven Moffat. “It’s not even a ‘British import.’ It’s just Doctor Who.” Has the time finally come for the so-called “Time Lord” to break big in America? Could be. The Doctor Who team has assiduously courted fans here with a succession of publicity appearances, including a panel at this year’s Comic-Con where Whovians paid homage to Smith’s red-haired costar Karen Gillan by donning ginger wigs. (No. 2 way you know  a TV show has become a cult favorite? When fans start dressing as characters.) In June 2011, the show’s U.S. broadcaster BBC America enjoyed its best ever ratings with the premiere episode of the sixth season since Doctor Who was revived in 2005, following a 16 year hiatus. The new season, which debuts later this summer, may well be the most eagerly anticipated ever as the Doctor prepares to say goodbye to his two trusty and beloved-by-fans “companions,” Gillan’s Amy Pond and Arthur Darvill’s Rory Williams.  Source This is my new blog, Nerdly News.

howtopickupafangirl: howtopickupafangirl: So I promised you guys that I would plan an official tumblr meetup, and so I have! Bring your friends! Bring your Sonics! Maybe we will find the Doctor checking to see all the things we got wrong. Why a Museum? Well, the lobby is a good place to meet, and considering it will be the middle of summer, I’d like to stay indoors. I assume you will be similarly inclined. After all, this is not a meetup of people who get outside a lot haha. And also, the Met is freaking awesome and you could spend a day there. Although I am not saying we will. But it is a good place to meet. Central Park is nearby. But yeah, everyone and their minion is invited, I am so excited. I hope you can come and I can’t wait to meet you all. On a side note, I just send in the form to get this meetup official’d, so you might not see it on tumblr meetups. But it should be there soon enough. Reblogging formaximum exposure. Also to add that there a few Very Important Things that I want you to bring. Salt Your Sonic A banana (Don’t bring an apple. I HATE apples.) A Bowtie. Bowties are cool. Maybe some sharwarma? Your mind palace (I want to visit) David Tennant Benedict Cumberbatch Tom Hiddleston Your awesome. That is all I require. And seriously, EVERYONE is welcome. Even if you just started following me. Even if you have been following me for like, forevs. Even if you don’t follow me. If enough people participate it will just be a buch of awesome fanboys and girls getting together reaking havoc on the Met. If you are going PLEASE like this post I have provided in the link. BTW IT IS THIS WEEK HOLY DALEK I AM EXCITE PLEASE COME I LOVE YOU. And if you are coming, meet me at the right side water fountain, (the right side being when you are looking towards the building)

Just going to blog this every once and a while so as many people as possible can see it. Oh and this is important. Message me if you are positive that you are going. I just want to know how many people I should be expecting. And admittence into the Met is donation based, so I usually just go with 5 dollars. It is the least amount I can give without feeling I am being judged severely.
