Whoa...

Was this an actual show and not some kind of Comic Relief sketch? This is like one of those comic bits The Simpsons shows when Homer talks about what kind of TV show he'd watch. "There's a girl reporter and her photographer is a DOG. And did I say that the dog was a ROBOT?"

This was the pilot for the show of the same name - never turned into a series - which is responsible for Sarah Jane having K-9 as a pet, since Sarah Jane and K-9 never even MET on Doctor Who itself.

And yes, it was every bit as terrible as that intro would lead you to believe.

I can almost imagine the producer screaming, "No, NO! Lower budget! I said LOWER! And Lis Sladen needs to look WAY more stoned!"

Wow, and here I thought the only thing this could be responsible for is several badfics where Sarah Jane gets soused and asks K-9 if it's "fully functional."

Don't be silly.

That's what the Sonic Screwdriver is for.

Although "School Reunion," the NuWho episode in which Ten gives Sarah Jane a new K-9, was responsible for a few fics in which the Doctor reveals that he installed "new attachments" on the new K-9.

Cue scenes of Sarah Jane riding K-9 like a Sybian ...

Couldn't she just... buy a Sybian? I have to imagine it'd be less awkward.

"YOU ARE HAVING AN ORGASM."

Except K-9 is a Sybian equipped with artificial intelligence and 51st-century technology.

Sufficiently advanced masturbation technology is almost BETTER than actual sexual intercourse, at that point.

But you have to work with it. And frankly, how are you sure that in the 51st century, humans don't consider it highly erotic to be doused with cream cheese at climax? Really, that's just asking for trouble.

I was about to cite 51st-century native Captain Jack Harkness, except I don't know if he would prove your case or mine.

It is my fanon, however, that Jack was River Song's son, and that they were totally doing it, because 51st-century sexual morals consider our incest taboos to be quaint.

THIS IS WHY YOU CAN'T HAVE NICE THINGS.

You know River is appearing in S5, right?

I'd almost be willing to pay for a scene of a pregnant River, leaving the TARDIS and telling the lump in her tummy, "One day, I'll tell you about your father, Jack ..."

[seriousfic.livejournal.com]

I'd definitely be willing to pay for a scene where the Doctor tells her "No, really, your version of heaven is caring for two imaginary children for the rest of eternity." And the reaction.

BECAUSE THAT'S WHAT EVERY SEXUALLY LIBERATED FEMINIST WANTS, AMIRITE???

[seriousfic.livejournal.com]

Wrong again, Boxey. Everyone knows that sexually liberated feminists want to have sex with women, but only in the context of a threesome with a man, not because they're attracted to another woman or in touch with any sort of non-straight sexuality. Honestly, it's like you haven't even read Cry For Justice.

... Once upon a time, James Robinson wasn't a bad writer.

What the fuck happened?

[seriousfic.livejournal.com]

I think to work for Marvel or DC, eventually they give you lobotomies. Either that, or you just get brain damage from the EICs smacking you in the head every time you disagree with them. I imagine it as sort of like the Vogon homeworld in the HGTTG movie.

LOOK GORRAMIT DON'T GIVE DAVIES ANY ID-oh, wait.

I think everyone's forgetting the real point of this; Liz Sladen is hot.
