Adipose Pumpkins and Treats for Whovians & Netflix Stream Team Fun #StreamTeam #DrWho

Happy Halloween all. Have a safe, creative and scream-tastic evening as you ChiIL out with your friends in Chi, IL and beyond!

We're elated to be chosen again as an official Netflix Stream Team blog. Once a month we'll be sharing fun content with you. One of the things we dig about this partnership is the creative flexibility. They send a suggested monthly topic, but ultimately we have the freedom to cover anything we want. This month we're foraging ahead on our own to share our undying devotion to the long running BBC series, Dr. Who.

My 11yo. daughter, Sage's Adipose pumpkin.






If you are a Dr. Who fan (or Whovian), or if you're a newbie, just discovering the series, Netflix has you covered. They have loads of back episodes under Dr. Who and Classic Dr. Who. Click here to check it out.


Netflix has 18 seasons of classic Dr. Who from 1963 on, which are pretty tame and cheesy and not too scary for most kids. These are retro fun for everyone. Then Netflix also has 7 seasons of new Dr. Who, beginning with the 2005 revival of the series. The new episodes have phenomenal writing, superb special effects, and some seriously scary characters! Frightening fun for Halloween and beyond... way beyond. Like a whole new space-time continuum and galaxies far far away and all that. This second batch of shows includes the brilliant one below that inspired my 11 year old's pumpkin this year and the tasty treats she created, pictured below.

Our fav quote from the show: "The fat just walks away."
