If we cannot watch Blossom, then truly the terrorists have won. I love the premise, and I love the tone – perfect. And I totally heart Doctor Rita. In between the good and the bad time lords you have – the surly time lords!

This was a great story. I only picked up on a few of the clues, so I’ll have to read it again. I love the last line. Brilliant.

”…everybody smokes in Hell.” Great line and an awesome entry to the challenge. Nicely hidden clues as well. I have guesses for only 7/10, and I’m not sure of half of them. Never would have pegged you for a Blossom fan.

She’s not a Time Lord, but just another iteration of my favorite fiction archetype: The Rock Star Scientist (see Val Kilmer in Real Genius , Jeff Goldblum in Jurassic Park or Robert Downey, Jr. in Iron Man ).

And yes, I’ve seen every episode of Blossom .

Twice.

Outstanding story, and could have stood alone without the need of a challenge. I was kind of let down that you didn’t have Bill Murray from Ghostbusters on your list.

I would have thought “Dr. Who” was your favorite show, not “Blossom.” Who knew?! This was wacky, weird and wonderful. And I’m just a “W” mood I guess.
And by the way, when are you and NIck going to jump back on the Simon and Blake train? It’s been too long!

Krulltar</strong> : I would have gotten to Dr. Venkman eventually, I just wanted to give a few examples.<br />~<br /><strong>Ana Cristina :I would probably go with Lost as my favorite, or maybe The Venture Bros. , but you said sitcoms!
Actually, I wouldn’t say that Blossom is my favorite sitcom either, but I just had to get that line in about the alien signal disrupting the reruns.
