University Recruitment: You’re Doing it Right

by Susana Polo | 11:21 am, May 17th, 2013

There was a huge outcry when my alma mater changed its recruiting slogan from “Think one person can change the world? So do we” to “Oberlin: Fearless.” If they’d done what the University of East Anglia (Matt Smith‘s alma mater) did, I can confidently say that a good chunk of the campus would have been overwhelmingly in favor of it. We might not have a Time Lord, but we do have Commander Sisko.

BBC’s Zombie PSA Warns Us to Keep Calm and Avoid the Undead [VIDEO]

by Rebecca Pahle | 1:15 pm, February 28th, 2013

I’d heard nothing up until now about the BBC zombie series In the Flesh, the main character of which is a zombie who tries to live (unlive?) in society without, y’know, eating brains and such. But this PSA-style promo caught my attention.

Remember, if you’re surrounded by a horde of zombies, all you need to do is give the government a call and wait for an armed patrol to show up and rescue you. Rick & co. from The Walking Dead have been doing it wrong all this time!

Watch David Tennant and Arthur Darvill In The Trailer For Broadchurch

by Jill Pantozzi | 9:34 am, February 21st, 2013

Fair warning, there’s nothing about time or space travel in this trailer, in fact, it’s pretty heavy crime material. The reason we’re posting the trailer for the eight-part drama series Broadchurch is because it stars Doctor Who actors David Tennant and Arthur Darvill. Technically it stars another Doctor Who actor, Olivia Colman (and well, probably more because tons of British actors have been on the show), but I’m gonna go ahead and make a while assumption and say many will tune in for the two fellas. The series will air on BBC America later this year.
