for lazy clickers, here's what matters:
Scriptwriter Steven Moffat was today named lead writer and executive producer on hit BBC1 drama Doctor Who.
and for the uninitiated:
As well as Blink, his previous work on Doctor Who includes The Girl in the Fireplace for series two which earned him his second Hugo Award. His first was for the series one two-parter The Empty Child.
Mr Moffat's script for Blink was nominated for a Nebula, but lost to Guillermo del Toro and Pan's Labyrinth; here's hoping he wins another Hugo with Blink. he doesn't need it, but Blink certainly deserves it not only for being *the* best New Who episode so far, imho, but one of the best things i've seen on TV in recent years.
speaking of 'best on TV', i am hereby making a public declaration that i am very much Spaced-out.
i cap this post off with some unrelated John Hodgman brilliance:

this post owes most of its existence to Neil Gaiman's Journal. (everything, in fact, except the bit about Spaced.) you'll find more interesting things there, as Mr Gaiman is a much more accomplished--not to mention industrious--blogger than i will ever be.
