Timey Wimey TV is an opportunity for two big Doctor Who nerds to get together every week and discuss not just the most recent iteration of the classic British series, but the general state of time travel-oriented television — past, present and future. Because time travel is AWESOME.
Liz Shannon Miller and Rudy Jahchan
Oh, man! I mean, that last episode of “Doctor Who,” right? RIGHT? RIIIIIIIIIIIIGHT??? That was basically Liz and Rudy’s reaction to “Dark Water,” except a little more verbose. (They also do talk about the episode prior, “In the Night of the Forest,” but what’s more exciting — Cybermen or trees? You know the answer.) Like […]
Friends, we owe you an apology. For WEEKS now, “Doctor Who” has been airing, and we have not been telling you what we think of it! We’re the worst! But hopefully, this makes up for that? That’s right, Liz and Rudy are CATCHING UP on the last FOUR episodes of their favorite time-and-space-traveling adventure. How […]
Hey friends! New episode! After Liz and Rudy give a quick rundown on their weeks, they get to the things that matter: Specifically, the state of Scottish independence, the return of Sleepy Hollow, Liz’s new Twitter account and things getting sexy on Outlander! Then we get to the things that REALLY REALLY matter — such […]
Hey friends! CHECK IT. This week, which includes a check-in on the final compilations of the Doctor Who novellas, Liz and Rudy catch up on the last two episodes of Doctor Who!

LIZ AND RUDY ARE STILL TALKING ABOUT “DOCTOR WHO”! Specifically, the latest episode, “Into the Dalek”! How did Liz and Rudy summarize the episode? (It might be our shortest summary ever!)

Did you miss us? We missed you! And we also missed Doctor Who! Which is why Liz and Rudy have returned to this humble podcast to evaluate our new Doctor and his latest adventure!

Friends, apologies for the long delay in posting this — we had technical issues, life issues and Doctor Who issues! Well, the first two were the reasons we were held up in making this podcast available to you. The third? That’s what brings this episode onto the internets! Liz and Rudy are joined by round-table […]
Oh, Matt Smith, we hardly knew ye. Actually, that’s a lie. We know you pretty well! Point is, after quickly discussing a couple of new trailers, Liz and Rudy dig into the 11th Doctor’s swan song, and what we might consider to be part three of the “of the Doctor” trilogy! Were Liz and Rudy […]
You guys, can you BELIEVE IT? It finally happened! “The Day of the Doctor”! David Tennant! John Hurt! Billie Piper! And so much other stuff! This episode, we sit down with EVERYTHING Doctor Who. EVERYTHING. Neil Gaiman’s 11th Doctor novella Nothing O’Clock! The surprising prequel episode “The Night of the Doctor”! The SUPER-DELIGHTFUL Peter Davison-written/directed […]
Folks, this is the episode that will make you realize that Liz and Rudy? They don’t know nearly as much about Doctor Who as you might think. That’s because they’re joined by a VERY special guest, Alan Kistler, who is a totally legit Who scholar! Alan literally wrote the book on Doctor Who‘s complex 50-year […]

Hey, did you guys hear that more than one person has played the Doctor? We’re exploring this theory this week on Timey Wimey TV! First, there’s some news about Christopher Eccleston being very specific about coming back for an anniversary special — but which anniversary? (Short version: He’s a cheeky one, eh?) Then there’s an […]
Big episode! First, Who fans took over the internet last week when actor-Liz-and-Rudy-really-like Peter Capaldi was, with much fanfare, announced as the next Doctor — though his placement in the order of Who-dom is a little weird! What does that mean? Liz and Rudy get into it. Also, we discuss About Time‘s latest trailer, which […]
Hey, guys! Summer vacation for us is now officially OVER! And we’re back with a bunch of the hottest news from the future! (That might not make sense, but just go with it.)

Hey cats and kittens! Only ONE MORE EPISODE LEFT THIS SEASON! Of Doctor Who, that is. Timey Wimey TV, it would never abandon you (for more than one or two weeks at a time). But before we get to Who, we catch up on some other stuff — like the upcoming Fox pilot Sleepy Hollow, […]
Hey folks! We got a two-fer for you this week! Well, first we catch up on some cool science news about time crystals! And talk about a really cool music video! Then, we get into things that matter. Like the last two episodes of Doctor Who! First Liz and Rudy break down their pros and […]
Hey, friends, ready for a new episode? I bet you are! This week, Liz and Rudy start off by speculating over episode name news — especially when it comes to the season finale, which is all sorts of exciting. Plus, Liz read The Angel’s Kiss, and Rudy watched clips from what technically counts as Doctor […]
Hey, y’all! Fun episode! (Not as sexy as you might hope, given the episode number, but we can only do so much.)

Hey there, sports fans! Today’s Timey Wimey TV continues our exploration of all things Doctor Who — from the new set of posters to the teaser trailer.

Hey, guys! We tackle two big funtime topics in this week’s episode, because we are joined by SPECIAL GUESTS Andreanna and Mike, two newlyweds whose Dalek wedding cake toppers (made by Root of Flatland Games) are pictured here.
