You seem quite sensitive on this subject. Would you like to tell us more about your feelings regarding what people have or haven't said?

What was the comment the individual replied to? It was a joke about GRRM being so fat that he dies of heart disease before he finishes his book series. You do not see how that applies directly to the piece and concerns about mortality rates among the obese? Then you're skipping something cognitively and might want…

The context of the entire discussion in regards to obesity is mortality. I'm assuming you looked at the comments with some awareness of the subject matter of the piece itself, which is about people fearing that this older author who is obese might die before he can complete his book series. Similarly, the comment…

Unless there was some editing going on, they said "isn't all that obese." Not "isn't obese at all, haters."

Is it like the difference between knowing your current romantic partner has had numerous past relationships and finding them screwing someone on the kitchen table when you get home from work?

I'm offended at the suggestion that I should have to wait as long as everybody else for my Doctor Who. Why haven't they personally contacted me and set up a private screening of all the episodes of series 8 yet? I mean, the nerve!

Agreed. I think the pace of the show sometimes hurts it now as well - particularly in the regards you're alluding to. The stories often used to feel a bit more contemplative and involving. Now it moves so quickly that it feels a bit like the Star Trek reboot compared to the original series. The ideas are there,…

I completely disagree. When you establish a protagonist, they tend to have varying faults or issues. A primary antagonist is typically meant to highlight these and bring them to the forefront. If two characters are truly at odds with each other, this becomes a good way to explore the main character - to see the…

The 50th, I would say. But it was awhile before that since anything had. I was entertained by the potential for more "throughlines" once Moffat took over but was underwhelmed by series 5, 6 and 7. It felt like it became too whimsical for my tastes. I often found myself frustrated by Davies building something up…

In the good way or the bad way or…who knows?

So you stopped liking the show moving forward because you don't like looking at Moriarty's face? Even though we don't have a guarantee that there will be much of it going forward? …Okay. I'm sure a lot of people online will disagree and even cite his face as something they enjoy. I'm not one of those people,…

I don't see why you'd assume Moriarty's alive. Or why much of anyone has aside from our "jump to conclusions" culture. Alive in spirit, sure. Possibly "masterminding something from beyond the grave," yes. Particularly in such a case as where it becomes known that Sherlock did not kill himself.

Isn't that how good drama often works, though? Isn't it all about that "dance" of feeling hurt, alienated, etc. and then coming back into your own or whatever? And, in a serialized drama, going through that time after time after time?

Hm. I wonder what made that scene stick out so much (for you or, among any who noted this, in general). I follow the show fairly well and I'm struggling to even remember it. Although I find that's like many of the Christmas specials. Then again, Moffat toys with timeline concerns and various grandstanding elements…

Why would you read all of these meta-concerns into the speechifying? We all know that Doctor Who - at this point - has a ton of speechifying so if you're constantly probing that for deep, dark meta-commentary, that has to be both exhausting and inconsistent in its conclusions.

I had never heard of that "certain beloved pop-culture news and reviews website" you linked to. Frankly, it looks like shit.

Buncha perverts here. They can make anything into something sexual. Even a penis.

What if I don't have hair? This is DISCRIMINATION.

B? …It's B, right?

Thanks! "Obama."
