The World Doesn't End Because the Doctor Dances

Wil Wheaton Seems to Know Who the 12th Doctor Will Be

by Isabella Kapur | 11:49 am, June 4th, 2013

It’s been less than a week since Matt Smith officially announced his departure from Doctor Who and the speculation is already in full force. But while websites place odds on various actors and actresses, from Zawe Ashton to Russell Tovey, the identity of the actor truly chosen appears to have made it’s way to Wil Wheaton. On top of that, we may find out who it is ourselves earlier than expected.

Remember When Nathan Fillion Stole Wil Wheaton’s Wife? Here’s John Barrowman Stealing Wil.

by Jill Pantozzi | 11:20 am, May 28th, 2013

Nathan Fillion was on a convention picture roll recently. First he stole Zelda, then he stole Wil Wheaton’s wife Anne in a glorious, meme-worthy moment. Now John Barrowman has gotten in on the fun for another amazing moment. In Wheaton’s own words:

So John Barrowman is really, really awesome. Anne and I got to spend a bit of time with him in Phoenix at the comic con, and he was simply wonderful.

At one point, Anne showed him the picture of her and me with Nathan Fillion, and told him the story from Ottawa Comic Con.

“We should do that, only I’ll hold you and Anne will look sad,” John said.

I made a noise like a tween meeting Bieber, and then this happened.

Wil Wheaton Sends A Message To Fan’s Newborn Daughter About Being A Nerd

by Jill Pantozzi | 5:45 pm, April 30th, 2013

Wil Wheaton had a panel at the Calgary Comic & Entertainment Expo over the weekend and something extra wonderful came out of it. A mother asked Wheaton to tell her newborn daughter (via video to be watched later in life) why being a nerd is awesome. He hits just about every point I try to hit when someone asks me what it means to be a nerd – it’s not what you love, it’s how you love it. We’ll allow Wheaton to explain further…

Star Trek‘s Gates McFadden Has a Tumblr Full of Pictures of Her Action Figure Doing Stuff

by Susana Polo | 3:29 pm, March 19th, 2013

Thanks to her “space son,” Wil Wheaton, the internet is now privy to the fact that the Ensemble Studio Theatre of Los Angeles’ Tumblr is, so far, entirely populated by cute pictures of a 1/8 size action figure of Dr. Beverly Crusher, Gates McFadden‘s character on Star Trek: The Next Generation. McFadden has been artistic director of the theater since 2008, but here’s what her action figure gets up to while she’s on the job.

Star Trek: The Next Generation’s Crusher Family Reunites For Adorable Photo Op

by Jill Pantozzi | 4:35 pm, March 18th, 2013

Not that they haven’t seen each other often since their time on Star Trek: The Next Generation but it was delightful to see Wil Wheaton and his fictional mother, Gates McFadden, take a “family” photo the other day at MegaCon. He lovingly refers to her as his “space mom” which is even more adorable.

10 Awesome Things That Happened at the Star Trek: The Next Generation 25th Anniversary Reunion

by by AshleyRose Sullivan | 12:35 pm, February 21st, 2013

In 1987, Star Trek re-launched the franchise with a whole new series, Star Trek: The Next Generation. Not only did TNG show us the next generation of characters in the Star Trek saga, it brought in the next generation of Star Trek fans who would grow up with the series. I was just a little kid sitting on the couch between my original-Trekker parents when the show premiered. I never imagined that, twenty-five years later, I would be in the room with the entire cast as they reminisced about their TNG experiences at Grand Slam XVIII. Here are some of the best moments from the reunion.

Sure, Iron Man 3 and Star Trek Into Darkness got their spots out to eager eyeballs, but another old Star Trek alumni also made his Super Bowl debut, a Budweiser ad made grown men weep, and some robots wrecked the place.
