Has anyone ever head of "The Magicians" by James Gunn? And if you've heard of it, have you read it and what do you think of it?

In between watching a show that I actually wanted to watch, Dad kept flipping to "Sell This House." I myself don't care for this program for a few reasons.

The first and largest is the "buyers." Because they're idiots.

Some is justified: panneling is pretty ugly and no-one likes updating cabinets. Most of it is not. "It's so cluttered" they whine when I doubt their kitchen counter at home is any less so. And if I ever hear bitching about the color of a room it's too soon.

Another part of the show is where the "buyers" give brtually honest comments about the house. There is a diffrence between saying a room is small, and saying that homeowners have something to cut off their head and tie it up, because the ceiling fan is slightly lower and had a string dangling from it. Wait, that's not honest critsim, that's just stupid.

I've just spent the last three hours looking for a new fanfic that has Mike killing Joel for some reason or another. Sadly, I didn't find it.

But I also came across a MST3K/Dr. Who crossover. It's a MiSTing, yes, but the host sections are pretty hefty and the riffing isn't bad either.

And if you know where the fic is, or know a bit more about it, I'd be grateful.
