20 Genius Tumblrs That Defined 2013

19. I Spy A Famous Face

Find It Here. I Spy A Famous Face is a useful tool in the White household (that's my surname, I'm not a racist). You know the scenario; you're watching a TV show, there's the main actor in the foreground - let's call him David Tennant - and he moves over to the other side of the room, when you see an bit-part character who looks rather familiar. And you rack your brains, but you can't remember where you've seen him. Maybe you saw a bloke who looks a bit like him on the tube once? Well, thanks to I Spy A Famous Face, I can tell you that Andrew Garfield of Spiderman and The Social Network was in Doctor Who's episode 'Daleks of Manhattan'. It really is the little things. Especially for Whovians.

18. This Charming Charlie

Find It Here. In the year that Morrissey released his autobiography, another piece of Smiths-related art graced us in the shape of This Charming Charlie. This Charming Charlie collects the finest Smiths lyrics with Peanuts Cartoons of Charlie Brown (there's probably a Coldplay joke in there somewhere). The genius moroseness, misery and wit of Morrissey make for such a fantastic narration of the comics, that Morrissey himself actually saved the Tumblr from legal action when Universal sent three notices to have it taken down. Mozza was said to be "delighted and flattered" by the Tumblr. Quite right too. It's brilliant.
