4 - Ales of London (S1, Ep4)

We watch the fourth episode titled "Aliens of London" (Series 1, Episode 4), the first part of a two-parter. Where the Doctor returns Rose to her (almost) time, they watch an alien ship crash into the Thames and need to be rescued from certain death in the form of corpulent farting aliens.

Takeaways from this episode:

- The Doctor still can't drive the Tardis for crap. 12 months is so not 12 hours. Rose is dead? Poor Jackie and Mickey.
- Farting fat people are aliens in disguise.
- Hey Americans: the Prime Minister of England is not Hugh Grant!

The final tally: 4 beers and a shot of tequilla.

Production notes: legit way mediocre sound quality (managed to lose John's sound track but still workable...?) and you guessed it, out of date references (Netflix can continue to screw itself).

3 - The Drunken Snoring Dead (S1, Ep3)

We watch the third episode titled "The Unquiet Dead" (Series 1, Episode 3) where the Doctor, having taken Rose to the future, now tries to impress her by taking her to the past and rescues her from certain death in the form of alien possessed corpses.

Takeaways from this episode:

- The Doctor can't drive the Tardis for crap. Wales is so not Venice.
- When you have tickets to see Charles Dickens live on stage, nothing, not even death prevents you from seeing him.
- The Welsh have the Shining.

The final tally: 5 beers and a shot of tequilla.

Production notes: Steve's usual complaint of mediocre sound quality and general out of date references (again the Netflix thing...we recorded these first several episodes in late fall of 2015).

2 - The Bottom of the Bottle (S1, Ep2)

We watch the second episode titled "The End of the Universe" (Series 1, Episode 2) where the Doctor tries to impress Rose by taking her to Earth five billion years in the future and rescues her from certain death in the form of the exploding sun.

Takeaways from this episode:

- Future races include tree people that look like busty asparagus, blue oompaloompas and humans evolved into large sheets of skin.
- Britney Spears is still a thing?
- Don't bring a person made of wood to help put out a fire.

The final tally: 4 beers and a shot of tequilla.

Production notes: the usual mediocre sound quality, dated references abound (not on Netflix still and Minority Report the series RIP).

1 - Rosé (S1, Ep1)

We watch the premiere episode of the Doctor Who reboot, "Rose" (Series 1, Episode 1) where the Doctor rescues shopgirl Rose Tyler from certain Death in the form of a vat of CGI plastic and it's army of killer mannequins.

Takeaways from this episode:

- Rose has huge teeth, Mickey is a doofus, Jackie is DTF, and the Doctor is (in Steve's words) kind of a dick.
- An online search for "Doctor Blue Box" surprisingly did not immediately display porn results.
- Doughy fans of the Doctor can have out of their league hot wives much like American sitcom husbands.

The final tally: 3 beers and a shot of tequila.

Production notes: mediocre sound quality, dated references (Doctor Who not on Netflix anymore dammit!)
