You know, I enjoyed The Dresden Files as much as the next guy, but this is a whole lot of wishful thinking.

It would be a little like me saying just because Farscape is now available via iTunes, there’s a good chance the show will come back with new episodes.

Although…

Today I received an incredible short poem in my in-box, entitled “THE BEST WORKERS ARE”:

Mike Sterling on Doctor Who:

Maybe I’m just reading too much into the performance, but Tennant’s Doctor feels a little more alien to me…there’s the occasional expression, or pose, or look in his eye that tells you “this isn’t a normal person.” Which is good, since the Doctor isn’t a normal person, and the occasional reminder that this character is not a human being, and is dangerous to be around, is what gives Doctor Who that additional level of gravitas that keeps it from being just another sci-fi superhero fightin’ the aliens-of-the-week.
