And we’ve reached the end of the season with The Name of the Doctor, an episode full of surprises and secrets. And now we have to wait until November to find out what happens next.

…Is it November yet?

In other The Shadow Proclamation crew will be at TimeGate this weekend in Atlanta. Is anyone planning to go?

This week Neil Gaiman brought us the rebirth of the Cybermen. The old kind, not the ones from other universes. We also got Warwick Davis this time around. How awesome was that? Come join us as we talk about Nightmare in Silver.

In this week’s episode of The Paternoster Gang we encountered Mrs. Gillyflower and her friend Mr. Sweet in their creepy mill.

…Wait. Make that Doctor Who. Seriously, though, it was lovely to see Jenny, Vastra, and Strax again. And I’m sure that The Doctor Was happy to see them. So, please join us as we discuss this week’s caper (and Dame Diana Rigg getting to work with her daughter!)

This week our travelers went back in time…to 1983. Well, they say that the past is another country, and that was certainly the case this time around. And best of all, it was written by Mark Gatiss!

Close encounters with an Ice Warrior on a Russian submarine? In 1983? With no TARDIS? Oh, boy.

Let’s get to the discussion.

Well, in The Rings of Akhaten we took a trip to the department of backstory, The Doctor showed his new companion how he deals with problems, and we followed the saga of Page One. In this Article, we discuss our views of the Doctor’s newest adventure, and make mention of a reference to Calliope’s favorite Blade Runner quote. Care to join us?

Doctor Who is back!!

Go ahead. Do a happy dance. We’ll wait.

All set? Right. So, another look at a version of the mysterious Clara. Another run-in with the Great Intelligence. Another new coat! Join us for a rather enthusiastic discussion of The Bells of St. John, and let us know what you thought of the episode.

The Doctor first encountered The Silurians in his third incarnation, along with Dr. Liz Shaw, the Brigadier, and UNIT. Join us as we discuss how well that worked out…

This time we are looking at the Second Doctor story, “The Invasion.” This one was particularly interesting to watch as it’s been reconstructed with animation to fill in the missing episodes. …And I hadn’t seen it before. So…new Who for me!

Join us for a discussion of fabulous Companions, iconic images, and the introduction of U.N.I.T.

The second Doctor Who story ever was also the TARDIS crew’s first encounter with The Daleks…and the name of said story was…The Daleks. That works out pretty well, yeah? So, join us for a discussion of this, the beginning of the Doctor’s long battle with The Evil Pepper-Pots.

Many thanks to Terry Nation for giving us this perennial baddie. Sir, we salute you!

Here, at long last is our review of The Three Doctors. We apologize for the delay. Feel free to blame life getting extremely busy…and Misha Collins.

In any case, join us for a discussion of this, the first multi-Doctor story, from back in the era when it was possible to call the Time Lords for backup. This breaks the first law of time, eh? Oh well. We’ll worry about it later.
