It’s like in the great stories, Mr. Frodo. The ones that really mattered. Full of darkness and danger, they were. And sometimes you didn’t want to know the end. Because how could the end be happy? How could the world go back to the way it was when so much bad had happened? But in the end, it’s only a passing thing, this shadow. Even darkness must pass. A new day will come. And when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer. Those were the stories that stayed with you. That meant something, even if you were too small to understand why. But I think, Mr. Frodo, I do understand. I know now. Folk in those stories had lots of chances of turning back, only they didn’t. They kept going. Because they were holding on to something. -Samwise Gamgee

The more Doctor Who becomes a perennial, the faster it starts to die. You’ve got to shake it up, you’ve got to keep people on edge and wondering when it will come back.
Sherlock is the prime example, as far as that goes. Sherlock almost exists on starving its audience. By the time it came back this year, Sherlock was like a rock star re-entering the building!
So keeping Doctor Who as an event, and never making people feel, ‘Oh, it’s lovely, reliable old Doctor Who - it’ll be on about this time, at that time of year’. Once you start to do that, just slowly, it becomes like any much-loved ornament in your house - ultimately invisible. And I don’t want that to ever be the case.

The Harry Potter Fandom Can Do Anything.
We can make a puppet show.
We can make a musical.
We can make a second musical.
We can cross two Harry Potter related things and make it hysterical.
We can take a famous line from the movie and change it.
We can take pictures from the movie and make it look like a picture from another movie.
We can take things way too literally.
We can take quote from a movie and prove it wrong.
We can take a whole movie quote and make it about Harry Potter.
We can take a commercial and make it about Harry Potter.
We can take a TV show and make it about Harry Potter.
We can take Disney and make it about Harry Potter.
We will forever take anything else that the actors are in and turn it into something Harry Potter.
We can make fun of something til there’s no tomorrow and still love everything about it.
We can turn Harry Potter into a religion.
We can turn mock the Dark Lord by making him sing pop songs.
Harry Potter will live on forever. The fandom will live on forever. Potterheads for life.

She didn’t mean James Potter.
She meant Severus Snape.(first quote: Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix, Chapter Two: A Peck of Owls; second quote: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, Chapter Thirty-Three: The Prince’s Tale)

About
I'm a recent college grad, who found an awesome job in DC, despite being constantly sidetracked by Tumblr. I'm a gigantic nerd. I'm a bibliophile, with a taste for intelligent TV and movies, thus my predilection for Doctor Who. I'm always looking for yet another obsession to add to my collection, so suggest away! Thanks for visiting!
I also run the Tumblr Magnolia Manor for fabulous house/interior decor-type posts.
