Somehow, the wait from the premiere of series six until episode two has seemed like an eternity. But after everything that happened in “The Impossible Astronaut,” I think the whole Internet is pretty much ready for the second half of the two-part opener. Join us, Doctor Who fans, in watching “Day of the Moon.”
MY GOD THIS WEEK HAS BEEN UNBEARABLE
WHO IS IN THAT SUIT
WHAT THE HELL ARE THE SILENCE
HOW ARE THEY GOING TO WRITE THEMSELVES OUT OF THE DOCTOR’S DEATH
WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON
Ok. Anyway. Liveblog time!!
This liveblog starts relative to you. So if it is airing on your television, start liveblogging away in the comments. Same for if you happen to be watching it online by less-than-legal means. (Though I would just time it with another time zone so you can comment with other people!) We already do this with Fringe and it works rather nicely. To avoid seeing spoilery comments regarding the episode from past livebloggers, I merely stay on the first page of comments and comment away, only going back after it’s over in order to comment on what other people said.
Sound fine? Just make sure not to post spoilers before this episode airs.
I am quite excited. I’m sure y’all are, too. As usual, the review for “Day of the Moon” will go up on Monday, May 1st.
Yayy I can't wait! Can't contain excitement, AHHHHHHH
At what time does Doctor Who air in America? I don't want to liveblog alone again. 🙁
9 pm on BBCA.
Thank you! =)
It depends where you are – 9pm ET, 7pm MT, 6pm PT, and I assume therefore 8pm CT.
Oh, so 3am for me… Oh well, it's a weekend anyway. ^__^
Thanks! 🙂
THIS IS A CRIME, THEY DON'T HAVE BBCA IN MY DORM ROOM.
iTunes, you may be my only help this time around.
I have the same issue and I share your pain!
Seriously, we get four different ESPNs but no BBCA. What the heck is that all about?
If I pay an undetermined amount of money, I could get BBCA. But I'm only here for 2 more weeks. IS DOCTOR WHO WORTH THIS?
Possibly.
Same plus OWN. What is this world coming to.
You would think colleges would pick educational channels (to let us watch Doctor Who 😛 ).
[Edit: OWN might be educational but so far all i have caught is movies and talks shows.]
Will join you 6PM GMT tomorrow.
PARTY.
Isn't Monday May 2nd?
via the ever wonderful E.L.S.O.S. and the spoiler blog who found it via Doctor Who TV it looks like the Doctor attended some famous wedding today.

Best picture of the wedding? <3
Y/Y/Y
Bowties are cool
Aha that is amazing
So much win!
OMG
That's so cool!
Shopped, but cool!
Shut your mouth! Totally not shopped! …
SHUN THE NONBELIEVER.
ABSOLUTELY FLAWLESS.
That is brilliant!
Haha, look what I found:

This is so completely fantastic I can't even…
That is amazing! I love Doctor Who fandom.
I never get to watch the episodes until Monday so I have all the sads 🙁
OMG Astronaut is totally the Doctor. Calling it now.
Of all the times to be stuck in a hotel room with crappy internet, it had to be while that episode was airing, wasn't it? Sadfais forever.
I'm going to be in transit- I won't even have the internet as a proper companion.
The Dalek is plotting revenge.
I would be too if I were plastered with that much British memorabilia.
CONSUMATE! CONSUMATE!
So any way, when's the Time Warrior review going up?
THIS IS AMAZING. 😀 I imagine a garden party going on just off-picture, with a huge TV screen and lots of food and stuff. And the guests are being cartered by the Dalek. "WOULD YOU CARE FOR SOME TEA?"
Will probably post a bit about it after I watch. 9pm tomorrow night – I'm having some friends over.
I AM SO EXCITE. And it'll be my one-year anniversary of properly discovering Doctor Who. 😀
Mark did you ever see the Comic Relief mini episodes? I NEED opinions on them! (from you :P)
OMG I cannot wait, and BBC is showing a ridiculous amount of trailers for it too-less than 24 hours to go though! 😀
My sister's confirmation conflicts with Doctor Who tomorrow! … She'll forgive me eventually, right?
… if only, if only. Guess I'll be missing the liveblog again, although I'll be watching DW as soon as I possibly can!
CAN'T. WAIT.
Here's a summary of basically all the connections I can make based off the first episode:
…WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON??????????????
That is brilliant!
SO EXCITE xDxD
LESS THAN AN HOUR!
<img src="http://i51.tinypic.com/w7ctiq.gif" border="0" alt="Image and video hosting by TinyPic">
OMG WHAT IS AIR
HALF AN HOUR!!!! :D:D:D I need to prepare my snacks!!!
OH MY GOD THAT IS FANTASTIC. Hahaha. So bizarre.
My friend is in the process of building a Dalek (I have the best friends) and I promise to get a picture with it when it's finished! I doubt it will be as awesome as this one, though…
25 minutes!!
Don't Scare The Hare is still really weird.
I like the host's style though. What's not to love about bright yellow braces.
there's a live stream of BBC 1, 13 minutes so EXCITE!
WOULD-YOU-CARE-FOR-SOME-TEEeEEA?
ARGH I STILL HAVE 11 HOURS TO WAIT.
If you have time to watch it now, you can watch it online right now: http://tvpc.com/Channel.php?ChannelID=3

Beardy Dr! I like Beardy Dr.
WHAT ARE THESE INTRIGUING TALLEY MARKS OF DOOM ON AMY'S ARMS?!
Tally Marks of Doom should totally be a band name or something.
River, with the Marks. Oh Canton Delaware III, don't be evil, I LIKE you.
Canton why are you hunting Team TARDIS!?!
I nearly cried!
OH GOD RIVER JUMPED WHAT.
RIVER ILU why are you in that dress not that you are not gorgeous in it but really is this the time for dressing up

River Song being a BAMF backed by a variation of the Doctor's Theme. Hell yeah!
"There's always a way out."
River rules forever!
WTF IS GOING ON?! PLS TO BE EXPLAINING THINGS MOFF!
RORY!
FUCKING HELL
It's like the Pandorica take 2! Oh thank god Canton's still a good guy!
DR WHO MAGAZINE SAID THE DARKEST SERIES YET. THEY WEREN;T FUCKING KIDDING.
Scariest shit I've seen in years.
I AM VERY CONFUSED RIGHT NOW BUT OKAY
OH THANK FUCK CANTON HANKS FOR NOT BEING EVIL. NOW GO FIX ALL THE PROBLEMS.
The Tardis Swimming Pool!
Want. So Badly.
BWAHAHA sideways TARDIS
River landed in the pool! Moffat I love you.
omg wtf is happening?????? is everyone dead??? NOOOOOOOOOOO ROOOOOOOOOOOOOOORRRRRRRRYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
AND THEME TUNE.
An orphanage on a stormy night. That's not creepy at all.
3 months? damn son. also, I love river song hahahahaha
So…NOT pregnant? Darn, Pond Baby would have been cute.
All that epic before the theme tune!
Clever Doctor.
Have we broken it already? Anyway, exposition that I CAN;T HEAR BECAUSE MY HUSBNAD IS TALKING OVER IT.
Hand's already flashing!
They're in the TARDIS!!!!!!!!!
Fuck. That's not RIGHT GOD I hate those.
What it's on the TARDIS?!
Awww, Rory. "AaaAAAHHH :("
Steven Moffat now every creak I hear I will shit myself. Good luck sleeping tonight, self.
FUCK THEY ARE INSIDE THE TARDIS oh wait no it's cool it's a hologram.
we are so screwed we will never sleep again and slowly die of exhaustion.
I had this terrifying moment at about 2am when I was convinced there was a Silent over my shoulder, like I swear I could hear breathing BUT I DIDN'T WANT TO TURN AROUND BECAUSE DEAR GOD and I sleep in pitch blackness and I had to make it go away by imagining a unicorn 🙁
I AM SO SORRY TO HEAR THIS. I was freaked after watching, and didn't want to go to bed, so I watched tv and dozed on the couch until I'd calmed down enough to make the walk to my room.
And now I'm all grumpy and crotchety this morning from bad sleep 🙁 Just…hold me, bro. I need it.
Everyone was right about implanting ideas!

Bwahahaha I love the Silence/Dori one! 😀
Poor Dori!!!
oh man the doctor is awesome.
Well this place isn't totally creepy and run by a very suspicious-acting bloke at all.
Yes this is a totally nice and safe orphanage. Nothing potentially bad happening here at all.
Wish I'd grown up there. Looks full of super-happy-fun times.
Nice happy Childrens' Home! Good to see that the little tykes are being given the best possible start in life!
Creepy orphanage lost in time with painting on the wall. Oh Moffat, you are stealing fom nightmares.
Does that mean the orphanage man's lost years because of the Silence erasing themselves from his memory?
That's what I thought… So creepy! It's like he's not even living anymore; whatever he does, he pretty much forgets immediately afterwards because the Silence edit themselves out. And then, whenever he sees them, he becomes this panicked guy who remembers everything but is trapped forever because he will never, ever get out of that house. So horrible.
Wonder if he watched the moon landing…
Whut.
oooooh scenery porn
FUUUU DOOOR CLOSING ITSELF!
Ha Ha! Ever reassuring Doctor rewiring like that!
Creaky door slam. Like a Hammer Horror.
Amy get out of there!!!!
God that recording thing is creepy, why is she covered in marks shivers OOOH GOD THEY'RE IN THE CEILING RUN
FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCK ON THE CEILINGOMFG
LIKE BATS.
Bats are not scary BUT THE SILENCE ARE.
MAKE THEM STOP DOING THAT
LOL LOL LOL DR You are excellent
There is nothing creepier than an empty house and that guy and the wall fffuuuuuuuuu
The Doctor is at the launch omg win
NURSERY FOR SILENTS SHIT SHIT SHIT this series builds up the tension then just DEFLATES IT and then leaves me shit scared and waiting for the next bit of terror
They're all about chaining and cuffing the Doctor in this ep.
I'm beginning to think someone has a fetish.
I truly truly hope Moffats newly discovered fetish will some day turn it's (beautiful) head towards Rory…
No complaining here. ^^
A healtjhy american sir!
