So obviously I haven’t seen the new episode of Doctor Who yet because it doesn’t air for hours yet.  And it airs on the other side of the Ocean then and while I am an ok swimmer I’m not that strong of a swimmer.  I say obviously like everyone reading this is just hugely up on Doctor Who.  You are aren’t you?  Oh man, you aren’t?  You’re so missing out!  Anyway, I haven’t seen it yet but it definitely influenced this pick because in preparation I have been spending lots of times on the internet looking at various previews and things.  Lots of fun videos of the cast doing fun things (like bowling against various people from the Nerdist’s empire of podcasts).  Karen Gillan is just stunningly gorgeous but what stands out to me is the energy and life she has when I see her on screen, from her actual role as Amy Pond to bowling in San Diego.  Why this is notable is that it never occurred to me that other people might not see it if they aren’t a fan.  A friend of mine mentioned she has an issue that she never smiles.  I was taken aback because… well she’s so cheery and smiley as Amy Pond.  She is always laughing and smiling when I see her doing anything, like riding around in a rickshaw with Matt Smith.  That is just a huge part of the attraction, she is this magic combination of fun and bubbly and smart and flirty all mixed into one.  Then I started digging through pictures and I saw it, she really doesn’t seem to be smiling in most of them.  It’s very odd! If you are someone who only knows her from photos I am here to tell you… you’ve let yourself down by not seeing more.  Some people have a certain energy and charisma that static images can’t convey, Karen appears to be one of them (though in truthfulness when she was announced as the new companion years ago I just saw pictures and I didn’t need any convincing she was hot).  So I am here to encourage you to give Doctor Who a chance, to give Karen Gillan a chance, and to… I don’t really have a third thing.  I thought I did but I guess I forgot.  Well, what I know and won’t forget is that today I want to fuck Karen Gillan.
