Comments: I'm a relatively new Whovian, having only discovered the show on Netflix this year. I loved, loved, loved the David Tennant years, and I've been trying to collect the main cast's signatures from all the new seasons. This week, I got Martha Jones!  I sense from comments online she's not the most popular companion, but I enjoyed her time on both "Doctor Who" and "Torchwood." Very happy to have this for my collection.

In-person: Chris Sarandon

Comments: Confession time. When I was young (like, 8, 9, 10), my brothers would sneak me into horror movies with them. I don't think they expected my 10-year-old self to like "Fright Night" as much as I did. I begged them to take me to see it again and again, and I'm pretty sure I saw it at least 4 times in the theater. I've seen it at least 50 times since on video, so when I saw that Chris Sarandon was going to be a guest at a convention in my home state, I was there! Mr. Sarandon was very nice. Honestly, I wanted signed pictures from him from "Nightmare Before Christmas" and "Princess Bride" too, but I had to get a "Fright Night" pic signed. Very cool to finally get to meet Jerry Dandridge in person.
