    Doctor Who

    The Disney+ run is basically a fresh start reboot, just like Rose and The Eleventh Hour was. I'd recommend waiting for the season opener (May 11th) and seeing if they catch you. Capaldi had the "thing" of him intentionally playing the Doctor as unlikable early on, to show a character change over the course of the season, and in interviews he admits he may have taken it a bit far. That said, he does get a lot better and there are some amazing episodes in the run. His run is worth binging...

    New trailer drop. May 11th double-episode premiere. [MEDIA] Definitely looking forward to the music episode more than space episode.

    Doctor Who

    There was some fun stuff in the commentary, notably one of the scenes that was cut (for budget reasons) was Ruby actually fending off the Goblin King in the apartment (by playing scratch offs until she won one). I think that would have fleshed out her character a bit more. Hopefully the upcoming season shows off more!

    Doctor Who

    I enjoyed this one a lot more than I did last week's. Don't really have a problem with any of the lore stuff or such. I'm a very big NPH fan so just watching him was great. I do wish he actually got a singing part, not just lip-synch though! Also: [IMG] [spoiler]

    It's back! Definitely more emotional and significantly more interesting than most of Chibnall's era. Are there some nitpicks? Of course. But it's definitely back!

    I actually really enjoyed that finale. Sure there's still many of the Chibnall issues in it, but the fanservice and the spectacle was second to none. Even not caring for the older companions at all (I never got into classic Who) it was still an entertaining 90 minutes.

    Doctor Who

    Agreed with Khan. Capaldi got some *really good* episodes, even on a rewatch. Robot of Sherwood is actually one of my liked episodes. It had the right amount of smarm and camp that I like from my who. I recently rewatched most of new Who. I skipped a few episodes, but surprisingly didn't skip *all* of Jodie's episodes. Just ... most. That said, "It Takes You Away" is better than Rosa to me. Complete agreement on Haunting. Spyfall was a really fun parody of Bond films, and I suggest...

    [MEDIA] This is not a joke -- they actually filmed an explanation for the series. (Presumably because it's incomprehensible from the story itself). The actual explanation and plot ideas sound a lot more interesting than what we actually got.

    That wasn't nearly as bad as I was expecting and actually mostly neatly wrapped up all the plotlines. Still 0 desire to rewatch it. I'm currently slowly rewatching the new series from the beginning. Definitely still enjoy them, so it's not just me being a grumbly old fart about the new stuff. [spoiler] This entire thing could probably have been significantly improved by slashing about half of the arcs involved.

    Ended up watching it today -- just kept forgetting. Episode 2 was a *significant* step up over episode 1. Episode 1 seemed to be introducing too much, while this one, while still having many unconnected (and as yet unknown) plot threads, seemed to flow a lot better. I'm actually looking forward to the next episode now. [spoiler]

    Hm. I was a bit bored throughout the episode but didn't end up picking my phone up. I'll watch the rest, but have 0 excitement for any rewatch. That said, I poked my head in the reddit thread and all the (upvoted) reviews are glowing. I'm not sure what I'm missing. I might no longer be the target audience?

    Hm. The New Year's special was a fine riff on one of the classics of the first season of the new series, but it still felt like there was something lacking. I didn't care about Ryan's dad at all. Basically any scene with him I checked out. And six people on the Tardis was spreading the attention a bit thin.

    Strange. This felt like a early series RTD episode to me. Cumming fit perfectly from that perspective. This was a forgettable episode, like most this season. So far nothing's been terrible-terrible, but nothing's been above-average either. Mostly just a boring season, which I guess isn't the worst they could have done.

    I enjoyed this a lot more than the previous one. The concept of space-Amazing Race was amusing and the final scene with the "villain" made me laugh out loud. @KGB: There seems to be a season plot thread but it's too soon to tell if it's all-encompassing or just background details. Next week is a historical (1940s America) with some other time travelers so we'll see how that works out. [spoiler]

    @Daedros: Honestly, a return to early-Tennant era writing would be an improvement over late-era Moffatt. If they do nothing but keep that up I'll be satisfied. I feel this was a good introduction for the companions - not so much Jodie, but we'll see on that end. Zappy-wire monster was amusing. Then again, I actually liked the Slitheen, so my opinion might not be the best there...

    No issues with the casting. Never seen anything Jodie was in before and the intro trailer wasn't too bad. (Not that it had any content, mind you.) I just hope this isn't a death knell of the show. Capaldi was a great actor but the majority of the writing did not do him justice. If it doesn't improve, it will give ammunition to the "the doctor should never be female" camp.
