Every day, Amazon offers up “Lightning Deals,” limited quantities of various products for a discounted price for a 4-hour window of time. You have to be on the lookout for these deals and once the item runs out within that four hours, the sale is over.

Meaning, if you see something on sale that you want, buy it immediately before it’s gone.

Typically you don’t know what will be on sale until the minute it gets posted, but as a prelude to Black Friday, Amazon has released today’s Lightning Deal schedule for Movies & TV on DVD and Blu-ray. See list of today’s deals here below, along with more information on how these special deals work.

The $9 t-shirt deal of the day over at Teefury today is the Battlestar Galactica-Muppets mashup “Frakking Awful” by artist Matt Dearden.

The sale at Teefury began at midnight EST (Wednesday, November 24, 2010) and will continue for 24 hours, and once it’s over, it’s gone forever.

The shirt is a mash-up of the heckling Muppets Statler and Waldorf as Commander William Adama and Colonel Saul Tigh of Battlestar Galactica. The Muppets are in their usual theater balcony box seats, but are wearing the BSG military uniforms. Waldorf is sporting an eye patch like the one Tigh wears after the first season of BSG.

The shirt comes in red and is available in both men’s and women’s sizes.

The TARDISblend returns to GeeksOfDoom.com and we take the opportunity to talk about further views of Doctor Who Series 5 and The Sarah Jane Adventures Series 4; as well as discussing some of the news and rumors floating around the web.

Listen to Episode 17 of the TARDISblend here below in our podcast player.

Co-host Tom Cheredar gives us the rundown of what you can expect in the new Doctor Who Series 5 Box Set. We discuss some of the cool extras thrown in, including some new footage Steven Moffat filmed with Matt Smith and Karen Gillan specifically for this DVD release.

Later, co-host Greg Davies takes a look back at Series Four of The Sarah Jane Adventures, and delivers his evaluation of the season. We take a look at the special episode from this series that featured Matt Smith, as well as Katy Manning reprising her role as former companion Jo Grant for The Death of the Doctor, and discuss the special revelations of Time Lord lore and Doctor Who continuity that came out.

Happy Doctor Who Day!

It was on this day, 47 years ago, the British public was first exposed to an eccentric old Time Lord known only as the Doctor in Doctor Who, with William Hartnell being the first man to take on the moniker in the first episode of the series, titled An Unearthly Child.

Initially designed as a science fiction television show for children that would focus on history and science, nobody behind the scenes back in 1963 could have possibly conceived how much of a phenomenon that Doctor Who would become.

In the years since its initial launch, the universe of Doctor Who has expanded significantly, giving rise to a detailed mythos that would form to become the lore and legends of the Time Lords of Gallifrey — a foundation to the Who saga that rivals many other science fiction tales around the world that people have followed.

In case you didn’t know, Slayer is one of my favorite bands in the world. As much as I love them dearly, I’ve never found a way to incorporate their headbanging music into my holidays.

But a Southern California Slayer fan did manage it — by setting up a Christmas light show on the front of his house synchronized to Slayer’s “Raining Blood.”

See below for the video of the greatest holiday light show ever.

First of all: best neighbor ever.

As if it wasn’t already the coolest shit when the double-bass drums kick in on the song, now to experience it with holiday visuals? I have to say: so fucking awesome!

To the people who live directly across the street from this guy: Please sell me your house.

Happy Christmas in Purgatory!
