Finally, the picks of the week. Blaine says, “Doctor Who: The Day of the Doctor is my pick of the year, let alone the week.” Alex says, “Day of the Doctor, hands down.”
I’ll acquire Futurama eventually, as I have the rest of them, but not much else stands out this week as a potential purpose for me. (Don’t kill me… I don’t watch Doctor Who)
For a show on MTV, Teen Wolf is actually surprisingly good. It bears little resemblance to its namesake save a few character names and vague details. I initially resisted watching it, but my wife did and she pulled me in. Since it shows up on Netflix eventually, it isn’t one I’d buy though.
