You Know You're a Whovian When...

Do they use episode titles in the CSI NY shows, or any of the others?

In all the years they have screened the show here in Australia they have
never put up the episode titles?

the episodes have names, they just don't put them up, at least from what i can remember the last time i've seen any of the CSIs

Most TV shows name their episodes, but don't bother putting the names on the credits. I assume the names are either there to make international marketing easier, or for the benefit of TV guides, or to satisfy the writers (or all three). CSI is one such show, and you can find a list of episode names here:

You can usually find a list of episode names for any show by going to Google and doing a search like:
+"CSI New York" +"episode guide"
(the plus signs and quote marks are necessary, but obviously you can replace CSI New York with whichever show you are looking for)

Looking up a list of CSI New York episodes gave me another "You Know You're a Whovian When...":

You know you're a Whovian when you look up a list of episode titles for CSI New York, and smile when you see that the first ever episode of CSI New York was called "Blink"!

Ok, this would be "Time's Up", CSI: NY season 4, ep 4, which just aired in the US last night.

I've been watching tonight's ep of CSI: New York. Not my usual fare, but the premise was about a guy traveling in time and I figured it'd be funny. It was. Someone even made a reference to "paging Doctor Who..." so:

YKYAWW... Someone refers to the character as "Doctor Who" and you have to stifle the urge to point out that the character's name is just "The Doctor." Of course a majority of the audience probably wouldn't have gotten the reference without the "Who" but still.

And then later in the ep...

Spoiler:

YKYAWW... you recognize the sound of a TARDIS when it crops up in another time machine.

i was watching that too last night... tho i missed the TARDIS sounds b/c i was watching Life too....

[shrap]

When you Rip your Hair out & foam at the mouth when somebody calls the Doctor "Doctor Who."

Even when the badguys refer to him as Dr Who onscreen?

[Lilith]

no... on screen it's a running gag.... they do it atleast once a series.... Rose did it first ep, Jackie did it during the Christmas invasion, Mickey's done it twice, Martha did it once, and so did Donna..... it's fun trying catch them doing it on screen as many times as possible

yeah, also in the peter cushing movies he was actually called Dr Who, because of law suits and stuff

You Know You're a Whovian When... you rent a flat that has a garage with a friend, even though neither of you drive or own a car, for the sole purpose of using it as a workshop for building daleks!!

Sweet. How many Daleks have you built?

[AvatarIII]

none yet, moving in in november, then we'll build them. we have the plans and know people who know people that have built them before, so when we have some we'll sell them on ebay.

What lawsuits?

[BruTak]

What lawsuits?

Yeah, what lawsuits?

[Lilith]

copyright infringements.... when the Doctor is mentioned on-screen in a different series and called Doctor Who, it's to avoid copyright infringements b/c the writers are too cheap and lazy to go buy leasings.... and technically they can't get sued b/c every Whovian on any level is adamant that his name is the Doctor and not Doctor Who.....

Would they make an effective prank if you rigged one or two with
radio control and had them out in the street.... But painted jet black
with no lights but the voice? And in the late evening when its just in
between the last bits of daylight and about to become evening...

Would that be spooky to prank on people in the street?

that gives me an idea for a Whovian Huanted House.... Daleks and cybermen lining the walkway to the TARDIS which actully opens up to the garage... the garage itself filled with some of the scarier creatures the Doctor has run into... throw in some Torchwood stuff....
