Friday Night Who 7/20/12

What is Friday Night Who?

Well, as an impromptu tradition that started accidentally, we watched a Doctor Who episode late one Friday night back in April of last year.  I commented to Glenn that it felt like the old days, when we used to watch Who on KCPT (one of our local public television affiliates that used to show omnibus editions of Doctor Who).  We decided to revive the tradition with a modern twist.  In addition to watching the episode, we’d tweet-a-long to it with other Whovians on Twitter.  And so, Friday Night Who was born.  It’s a fun way to share moments, thoughts and experiences with the Doctor, and make some new friends to boot.

Tonight is Jon Pertwee in Death To The Daleks, which was just released on DVD in North America last week. Join @vortexglenn, @vortexshaun, @VortexKeith and @travelvortex on twitter for the live commentary, and look for the #FridayNightWho and #DeathToTheDaleks hashtags. We push play at midnight, CDT!
