SO I DON’T KNOW WHERE THIS POST WENT. It was in the queue, it was supposed to go up at 7am, and NO SUCH THING HAPPENED. It’s not in my trashed posts or pending or a draft…just *POOF* gone. UGH.

Sorry for all those outside of the US who did not get to participate in some livebloggy goodness! For those of us in the States who still must wait for tonight’s episode of Doctor Who, please join in!

THANKS. I HOPE THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN AGAIN.

As a gift, the greatest Eleven GIF of all time:

Given the shocking and confusing final sixty seconds of “The Last Same Weiss,” I think it’s safe to say that not a single one of us knew that THIS is what the finale would be about. Intrigued? Then let’s all blog our hearts out to the season three finale of Fringe.
