“I’m not out of touch, except for perhaps yesterday by saying what I said,” the 55-year old former crack user added.

Missy’s redemption arc was one of my favourite things this show’s done in a long time, but paradoxically, I have no problem with The Master just being back to straight evil with no explanation. if you follow the idea that each incarnation of the Doctor is a reaction to the previous’ characteristics - which I firmly…

I loved that the current companions thought the doctor had replaced them with her team of legendary heroic ladies of history, which honestly would have been an amazing TARDIS crew

I’ve decided I’m fine with the Master being both back and dangerously homicidal without a big explanation. He’s much more fun this way. As for the re-razing of Gallifrey, I similarly expect it will all get sorted out again eventually, and with nearly as little explanation, just as soon as this or a future showrunner…

And Missy’s final redemption came the way The Doctor described alone and unremarked and unseen. He knew she was on the way to redemption, but never saw her decision to actually be redeemed. So thinking she just regenerated and returned to form would fit his concept of The Master.

I don’t recall but I’m not sure the Doctor ever saw what happened to Missy, so she’s likely to just think this is Yet Another Master. And honestly for continuity purposes that’s as good an explanation as we’re likely to get. 

I liked this two-parter, but it feels as if it took an entire season for the writers (Chibnall very much included) to get over their hang-ups about what NOT to do with a female Doctor, and start thinking about what TO do with her as a character. Whittaker’s Doctor is finally starting to take on a persona of her own,…

To quote a great movie: Amazing. Every word of what you just said was wrong.

“Honestly, this isn’t very newsworthy.”

rest assured if it were owned by a POC it would’ve been liquidated and dropped in the local police’s account within a week.

Amen to all of this. I never fully appreciated how much I valued Deadspin until maybe 8 or so years go. I realized just how much I loved this site when I found myself (absolutely unnecessarily) annoyed that they hadn’t posted an article related to some current event (couldn’t even begin to remember what it was all…

I hope when the deadspin cats find a new home that they make room for jalopnik over there as well, G/O is a cesspool.

I hear the Bears might need a new kicker.

I’m 100 percent in support of the entire Giz family resigning and creating their own independent publication free from Great Hill’s bullshit, and would do everything I could to help out. And a paywall would totally be worth it if it keeps everyone safe from vulture capitalists.

Waited until the final second, then nailed the 55 yarder. Well played.

We may not all be as eloquent as Will at the end there, but I think it’s safe to say we all feel the same way.

Wearing a John Rocker jersey is the same as wearing a MAGA hat.

Hey Drew. You’re the best, and good luck with the brain and everything.
