Which Doctor Who Villain Is The Best?

The title says it all. Through the years (about 50 now), we've seen a lot of different Doctor Who villains. But which one is the best? For this post, I'm only going to include villains that have made multiple appearances. In no particular order...

1. The Daleks
Evil machines of death with no emotions or conscience. Their goal is to EXTERMINATE all life-forms that are not Daleks. These monsters have showed up a lot.

2. The Cybermen
Like the Daleks, the Cybermen are emotionless. They are metal men, and their goal is to "upgrade" all of humanity into Cybermen.

3. The Master
Like the Doctor, he is a Time Lord. He escaped the Time War by temporarily becoming a human. He's insane and always hears a pattern of four drumbeats in his head, which he claims call him to war. He's pretty evil.

4. The Silence
Wait, who? These monsters can make you forget them, and they've been meddling with human history for centuries.

5. The Silurians
These look like lizards, but they're actually aliens. While they were originally the Doctor's enemies, the last Silurian, Vastra, teamed up with Jenny (a human) to help the Doctor.

6. The Sontarans
These monsters look like potatoes. Again, the last Sontaran, Strax, changed from being a bad guy to a good guy.

7. The Weeping Angels
Don't blink. Don't even blink. They are fast, faster than you can believe. Don't turn your back on them, don't look away, and don't blink. Good luck.

8. The Autons
They look like just innocent mannequins, but they will kill you without a second thought. They are living plastic, controlled by the Nestene Consciousness. As seen in The Pandorica Opens and The Big Bang, they might think they are human when they really aren't. Rory came back as a Roman centurion, but he was really an auton. Except he was too strong for the Nestene Consciousness.

9. The Zygons
Big red, rubbery things, covered in suckers. Surprisingly good kissers.

10. The Ood
Their appearance may be a little... ood (pun intended), but they're still formidable. As with the Silurians and the Sontarans, eventually they became good. They foresaw the Doctor Donna, the human Time Lord who sadly could not last.

So that's the list. Did I miss any?

My Fan Videos

I've made enough fan videos now to put them together into one post. I'll probably make this into a page, so I can update it as I add more.

My first fan video! Yay! This was made for #Eleverday.


The Doctor and Donna are best friends forever!

I just finished this one. The Doctor's always on the move, so "On the Road Again" seemed like an appropriate song.

A Very Sherlock Musical

Hi, guys! Recently, I found this Sherlock fanfiction that is set in a musical AU. As in, a universe where bursting into song is perfectly normal and a regular occurrence. Then, I found that there is a group of people dedicated to making this into an actual musical. (Click here for the tumblr page.) Since I liked the idea, I joined the team. I'm mentioning this now because I just finished a song that's going to go in the musical. It's called The Comforts of Tea, and it's the song John sings as he makes tea. To find out more about the context, read the original story that started this idea.

As I understand, we're always happy to have more people join, so if you're interested, feel free to let us know. The best way to do this would be through the ask box on the tumblr page, but if you don't want to do that for some reason, you could talk to me by commenting on this blog or talking to me in hangouts, and I can refer you to Josephine, the person in charge of this all.

So I guess that's all for now. Enjoy!

Announcement: May 25 Is Geek Pride Day!

I'm going to take a chance here and assume that at least some of you who read my blog are geeks. It's a reasonable assumption, since fandoms are a geeky thing, and I myself am a geek. It has come to my attention that May 25 is Geek Pride Day. (I didn't even know there was a "Geek Pride Day"!) Obviously, I'm going to write a post about it. The reason I am writing now is because I'd like to include thoughts from my readers on this one.

When did you know you were a geek? What is your favorite thing about being a geek? What's the geekiest thing you've ever done? What do you think makes a person a geek?

Answer any of these questions, and I'll include your response in my post about Geek Pride Day on May 25 (next Sunday).

Or, if you don't want to ask me a question, try this:
Come up with a particular challenge of something geeky for me to do or say. I'll do (almost) anything. Go ahead, and don't forget to think about what you'll do for Geek Pride Day. Allons-y!
