Fun fact about the donner party:
the cannibals were not all immediately disposed of; and lingered around the camp taunting other settlers while jailed at Ft Sutter. One man in particular was a butcher and had processed Mr and Mrs Donner as if meatpacking - the primary cannibal.
He taunted my ancestor saying “people…

It is possible that more episodes would have made this smoother, but I think it is more possible that Chibnall’s penchant for failing to develop his ideas was just stretched out from several one episode chunks to one six episode chunk. For episode 5 of 6, there is an awful lot of exposition and the introduction of a…

Listen, I love Oasis, those first couple of albums are how I learned to play rhythm guitar, but there are only so many times one can hear ‘Wonderwall’ without resorting to violence.  

But we skipped the two before, Nu and....Xi. lol Can’t imagine why.

Great fun will be had when we have to move to the backup alphabet, and USAen anti-semites start keeling over from alef, bet, gimel, dalet...

Post credits scene: Nicholas Hammond wakes up.

A lot of times they started with a message and contrived the story to deliver it regardless of how little sense it made (see “Rosa” and “Orphan 55"). Messages are fine, but not at the expense of the story. I’m liking Flux mostly because it *finally* gives Jodie Whitaker some real material to work with. This isn’t some…

I did not even realize that was Grey Worm until you said it. I even looked it up because I didn’t believe it. He looks so different with hair! How have they not advertised this more? 

I can’t shake the feeling this season it’s just Doctor Who in a blender. Throw everything in push the frappe button. This is the first season under the new management I’m actively not liking - which I know, is a little weird. It’s just every thought on screen seems not fully processed, they are to show a thing and…

My guess about the angels is that, with time being all super wibbly, out-of-order, the Angels are starving, since their whole thing is feeding off the linearity of the time you lose being sent back. So they’re actually desperate for the Doctor’s help.
