If you want a super-spy dealing with the trauma that made him that way Burn Notice already did a better job anyway.

I mean he doesn't have to lose those connections. There have been several companions that continued after regeneration.

The cast really rescued this episode, especially Ncuti, who has a great energy on screen. Otherwise the plot was very weak, and made even less sense than usual. RTD really needs someone to edit his scripts.

Yes, except the previous episode showed that the Doctor has his own found family, he's definitely not alone.

Oh yeah, Zaslav would definitely fuck this up.

And Amazon/MGM, but they're very small.

What? Has Our Flag Means Death been cancelled?

I mean with the concept of the TARDIS and the sonic screwdriver, it's kinda baked in.

I mean, is you're watching for the serious sci-fi stuff, you're watching the wrong show.

I really hope that’s what it is, but it really does feel like a bit of a cop-out. “Look, your favourite white male doctor is still around!”

Still, it feels a bit like a cop -out. We can have both Tenant and Gatwa. I wonder if Disney will churn out several more Tennant specials every year.

Same. Just put Tennant and Sheen in anything.

Oh yeah. I kinda wished they'd rescued him too at the end of the episode.

Whoa! Amazing! Hope more shows go back to more physical effects. I miss Farscape.

Her newsletter is on buttondown.

I think someone saw Tenant is back and thought “better give him some space to run around”. I'm not sure any of the other Doctors since have done so many laps around the console just hitting buttons and pushing levers and making coffee.

Oh wow. You've put your finger right on something I've felt was missing in DW recently, why I've skipped a few seasons.

Thought they were doing this as retro thing for old show, since the new one doesn't even have a release date.

Huh, must have missed those toys.

When did Magneto look like this on the cartoon? Was the Goblin Queen even in it?
