Who You Gonna Call?

I did sixty five push-ups today, so that's nice. I also stayed under 260, which was also nice. On the other hand, I had to watch another episode of Torchwood: Miracle Day, which was not especially nice.

Miracle Day: The Middle Men

(TARDIS Data Core recap)

I dunno. Stuff happened. I guess. Ex-Ghostbuster Ernie Hudson showed up for one episode, pretty much just to take a giant steaming InfoDump in the middle in order to give Jack a new clue to work on now that the Death Camp storyline has run its course. I think there were some other things, but honestly I just don't care.

Good point. Perhaps, after I finish Blake's 7 and Sapphire & Steele, I should start a grand re-watch and dig back into the b&w era.

Regards the first year weight loss, could the science be that early Doctor Who was more conducive to weight loss than when it went color??? Could color TV be the problem?
