Sleeping Tennant (Part Four) …or maybe “Waking up” is a more appropriate title for most of this set

Link to parts [ one ] [ two ] [ three ] (or the #sleeping tennant tag)

Someone should make a fic related to the Dramarama canon where alien Cody falls in love with human Noah.

othello as a metaphor for my life

c*** is the Iago to my Othello, her blind jealousy leads her to ruin me; yet she will never voice her grievances directly. How exhausting....

sometimes i just need to rewatch the dramarama mv. i love this story so much you have no idea. rewinding time on repeat to find a way to save your precious person but there is no good ending for you both. either of you has to die. there is no salvaging the empty space left by their death. there is one way and it is forward, but all you do is look back. anyways.

A foreshadowing in name only.

I put on David Tennant’s episode of Dramarama and I almost cried???

Not only was he adorably bratty the story was so simple but beautiful, love how ghosts are a positive device to the story instead of fear (like in most American shows)

Also I thought this was a 90s show but it is indeed late 80s lol no wonder he’s such a baby 🥰 link to watch for anyone who’d enjoy it!

One of my all-time favorite albums that no one ever talks about (got a few) is Dramarama's VINYL, from 1991. It's almost a perfect guitar pop/rock album, and I always wondered if it's relative failure to gain traction helped lead to their (first) breakup.

They were clearly aiming for success on this one after a couple of big college radio hits, but maybe they got caught in the hair metal to grunge transition in music, and lost in the shuffle.

I did find some vintage live videos from their promotion of the album, including a weird but great take on "(I'd Like to) Volunteer, Please" on Joe Franklin's couch.

Shoulda been a hit "Haven't Got a Clue" on Dennis Miller:

and Letterman:

"Train Going Backwards" on Request Video:

"What Are We Gonna Do?" on Request Video:

I made a version of how I imagine Heather as a child from Dramarama, since from what I've seen she probably won't appear in this cartoon sadly :(

[pitbullwithaship]

So in case y'all didn't know I do in fact have an✨️obsession✨️ with David Tennant. Which of course means I now need to watch his entire Filmography which I can pretty reliably do thanks to @bro-ken-spoon 's spreadsheet (I love a good spreadsheet).

So I'm of course gonna start at the beginning and y'all get to see a (hopefully well formatted unlike my Dr Who liveblogs, hope and pray this isn't just a list of random thoughts my brain thinks) rundown of each role and my thoughts which means it is time for...

THOUGHTS PART TWO, PART ONE OF WATCHING DAVID TENNANTS ENTIRE FILMOGRAPHY WITH ME

Which will get a better title eventually but for now I'm gonna tag it as WDTEFWM. Kidding I'll tag it Watching Tennant's Filmography. Great okay let's get started with

PART ONE, DRAMARAMA THE SECRET OF CROFTMORE

Guys. Guys he's so baby in this. He is a child!! He plays a child (okay so he's a teenager whatever) I swear he's probably like my age in this maybe a tad older. But he's baby! Like compared to how I'm used to seeing him at age like 30 and over in all his other stuff omg. Child.

Anywho, yeah, it's just the one episode and his characters name is Neil and he's kind of bratty for the first bit cuz he's a certified rugby kid and all. But then he's nice and stops being mean to his cousin.

Oh and he gets to see the ✨️ghosts✨️ eventually maybe cuz he stops being mean. But the character is cute and the episode is cute and yes it's a tiny thing but it's cute and he did a good job okay.

Also the entire thing was incredibly Scottish. Like so Scottish. This is more Scottish than my hair.

wait are gwen and ella actually canon cousins??

Short answer: Yes. Confirmed in Total Dramarama episodes Dissing Cousins Part One and Part Two. They're so adorable! Shown to get along well too, despite some kiddy issues. 🖤💖 Along with an interesting premise for Ella.

Long answer: If you consider TDR to be an addition to the series (which I do), yes.

I don't subscribe to the "the kids are clones of the contestants," or "prequel to the main series" theories, but I think of TDR as a holder of interesting details and character expansion that can work in the main series. It really feels like a world building series, since a lot of the wacky humor and odd canon things fit in with the main series.

My bestie and I agree that a lot of characters are improved upon, some drastically and much needed. (Sugar.)

Basically, TDR has a lot of elements that can easily be applied or carried over to the mainverse believably.

(Scarlella if Scarlett found out about the dragon side to Ella 👀 I'm telling you guys I will write this.)
