While this isn't really an RPG as the video maker suggests, it is based off of the Pokémon Nintendo games. The doctor does not use companion balls to capture his new companion, but we cannot have everything. The Doctor is also missing a few Daleks.
However, the place where I found this suggested American science fiction was on the decline, and this is something he is entirely wrong about. There just has not been a lot of high-quality science fiction American shows since the cancellation of Firefly.

Asexuals are quick to latch on to any character that shows any hint of not being interested in sex and proclaim that character’s Asexuality. The March 30 Girls with Slingshots web comic contained the line “Erin is completely Asexual. It's official”. Members of the Asexual community were quick to confirm this as a declaration of the character’s Asexuality.
The problem with this declaration is that it is premature. This author, who does not read the strip, could easily tell that Erin was not present during the scene. The context of the strip suggests someone who is talking to a friend about a problem in her sex life. Unless the characters have an extremely strange relationship, they would not discuss the use of relationship aids while sitting in a bar.

Few people will associate the musical Hair with Asexuality. Hair came out in the 1960s during the sexual revolution. Members of the Big Bang Theory cast recently performed their rendition of The Fifth Dimension's The Age of Aquarius.
Taye Digg, Zachary Levi, Indin Menzel and Kristen Bell performed the opening number from the musical during an event sponsored by the American Alzheimer’s Foundation. Jim Parsons did not appear on the stage, although his appearance may not have improved the overall performance. Insider HD posted the video, which also found its way onto Youtube. The video has been posted here for reader convenience.

U.S. Science fiction fans can enjoy comic bookand Star Trek conventions at almost any time of year. Even the Syfy channel show, Stargate has been the subject of several such gatherings. Cardiff, Wales hosted the first Doctor Who convention since the original series went off the air. People from around the world gathered in the city to celebrate their love of the longest running television series.
No one from this site was able to attend convention. (It would be more likely for the staff to attend the comic book convention in Allentown). Even though no one from our staff attended the convention, plenty of other people were willing to travel thousands of miles for a chance to see Matt Smith, Karen Gillian and even Steven Moffat.

Steven Moffat does not like the idea of CBS's Elementary. The succes of Sherlock rompted an American adaptation. He worries about the quality of the show. Although the show has yet to air, the BBC has already threatened legal action against the producers if the show turns out to be too close to the BBC adaptation.
Although the producer of Doctor Who and Sherlock has made a few gaffes that upset his Asexual fans, his most popular creations have a large Asexual following. The Scottish writer is not worried about legal action, provided the plots are drawn from Doyle's stories rather than from the Sherlock shows.
