Parting of Ways

Join @TravelVortex, @VortexKeith, @VortexShaun, & @VortexGlenn as we press play  at Midnight CDT!

Don’t forget the hashtags (and tissues) #FridayNightWho #BadWolf & #ThePartingoftheWays

To The Schedule, And Beyond!

(UPDATED: We decided to make the countdown more accurate, it was prudent to flip-flop the FNW dates for “Scream of the Shalka” and the 9th Doctor 2-parter)

Without preamble or adeau, here’s the next batch of scheduling! (Isnt this statement in and of itself a preamble?)(UPDATED: Or perhaps by adding the UPDATED line, we have created ANOTHER preamble)

Friday Night Who this week on 8/30 is the final three parts of the third Doctor story “The Green Death” (Parts 4-6)

On Traveling The Vortex #140 we’ll discuss “The Green Death” and probably quite a little bit of Jo Grant as well, seeing how we just revisited her in The Sarah Jane Adventures.

Then we start a real treat, 11 weeks for 11 Doctors! (With a twist – we decided since a large number of the episodes that were voted on in our polls to be “MOST” representative were also the ones shown on BBC America, we would just make up a list of our own.  We’re doing it Casey Kasem style, counting down backwards. So starting things off for us on Friday Night Who on 9/6 is the Craig Duo-logy, “The Lodger” and “Closing Time” staring Matt Smith.

The Eighth Doctor celebrations kick off in episode #141 as we cover Big Finish #72 “Terror Firma” and the eighth Doctor Revisited.

Doctor Number 10 on our countdown for FNW 9/13 is the two part “Daleks In Manhattan” / “Evolution Of The Daleks”

TTV #142 has our reviews of the Big Finish/Audio Go Destiny Of The Doctor 8: “Enemy Aliens” , the IDW Prisoners Of Time issue 8, and our 50th Anniversary Discussion of The 8th Doctor Era.

And Friday Night Who on 9/20 will be a proper 9th Doctor story, with Christopher Eccleston in the two parter “Bad Wolf” and “The Parting Of The Ways”.

We’re down a man for our show this week as Shaun misses his first recording of Traveling The Vortex by being abroad visiting his brother in Hawaii.  Keith and Glenn will trudge on without him in episode #143 with a set of book reviews, still celebrating the eighth Doctor.  Keith will review  Trading Futures by Lance Parkin and Glenn will talk about Earthworld by Jacqueline Rayner.

And a special surprise, for Friday Night Who on 9/27. In keeping with the idea of a “secret Doctor” who falls somewhere between 9 & 8, we present… “Scream Of The Shalka” which releases on DVD in North America the previous week.

More to come as we get it finalized!
