Busy Sunday, hence not yet reviews, but...

Note to self: crack AUs popular. Also it's fun to rise the challenge and come up with ideas without the obligation of writing lengthy fic to follow it up. Although I may be tempted to do something about the Ancient Rome!Ashes to Ashes and WWII No Aliens No Superpowers! Doctor Who starring Seven and Ace plot bunnies. The former is actually more an Ancient Alexandria!AU (though Gene Hunt is a Roman), and the later was probably the biggest challenge to invent because it wasn't easy to come up with something that captures quintessential Seventh Doctor character traits (of which the fact he has lived several lives before is one without breaking the no aliens no superpowers condition. But I'm pleased with my solution and in that far and distant time when I have leisure to spare might do some detailed research so I can write it. Should anyone with more time right now feel inspired by any of the crack AUs, feel free to adopt any of the bunnies, though!

In terms of sheer statistic: Farscape was the fandom most asked for (resulting in Elizabethan!Farscape, Ancient Rome!Farscape and Rock Star!Farscape), and Ancient Rome the period most asked for. 'Twas fun.

Doctor Who 6.09 + Torchwood 4.09

I still don't seem to have my sensible review writing brain back, but you try this while going with your mother through luggage lists while simultanously engaging in far more sinister real life business. Thus in brevity:

DW: Night Terrors: the name Mark Gattis as the episode writer didn't exactly feel me with confidence (no, Mark, I'm still not over last season's dreadful Victory of the Daleks, and your Sherlock finale was so-so at best - can't you stick to acting?), but the episode was thoroughly unobjectionable. Also not very inspiring. A nice standalone in which the Doctor was Doctor-ish and Amy & Rory did engage a lot in the Companion sport activity No.1, i.e. running. I had the distinct impression of having seen the episode before, at least twice, once on Sarah Jane Adventures and once on DW itself (as Fear Her), but never mind, in the Whoverse you're bound to repeat yourself. However, I couldn't help but feel that this is the kind of standalone episode which Moffat used to get when he was the guest writer as opposed to the headwriter, and that he would have made it exceptional (as well as genuinenly scary) if he wasn't busy producing and spreading himself thin. But maybe that's my inner grouch speaking; like I said, it was a nice avarage DW ep and an okay effort.

TW: The Gathering: no Immortals swinging swords showed up (and that was your Highlander joke of the day), but otherwise we've rarely seen so many of the regular ensemble in one spot. ( Some more spoilery bits and pieces. )
