The whole point of Missy's story was he was trying to teach her to do right 'Without hope, without witness and without reward'. And she did.

It's implied but not definite so they could easily slip in a few regenerations in between the two.

It also had the same path as both Amy & Clara, and to some extent Donna, in that the show wrote it so their time with the Doctor was REALLY VERY DEFINITELY WE'RE NOT KIDDING over but wouldn't go that extra non-sentimental length to show a companion dying.

This is Preacher the comic meets Whacky Races the cartoon, with an anti-corporate subtext rather than an anti-religious one. Probably because they didn't think to throw it in at the time. It's trash and it definitely shouldn't work… but it kinda does.
There's no good taste on display but it is smart enough to know…

Blaine's been getting too much of a free pass for the things he did in season 1. Now that he's brought Mr. Boss in as an underling it's gone way too far to be ignorable. Even if he and Donny did have a threeway (vision) with Liv.

Way back in season 2 they talked about one of the ingredients being a secret rare plant and that was the trigger for everything. I seem to remember someone (maybe Lyle?) talking about a local legend he encountered on his travels that lines up with that. May have to rewatch.

Or Carey Gold did it, either for the same reason or she recognized Katty as the floozy trying to make time with Graves.

didn't he get beaten around by Blaine during the break out? Blaine's never been too careful about who he scratches.

If the higher ups at the CDC suspect zombies it still doesn't follow they clued-in everyone working there and Katty could still just believe she was investigating a flu outbreak. She didn't seem to be asking any questions that related to what we know of it.

Both this and last episode do come across as throwbacks, but the difference between them is that last week's felt like it was pre-written in a way that any Doctor with any companion could have filled while this one is very resolutely belongs to 12th and Bill. Also Nadole is elevated back from the bumbling sidekick to…

I'm afraid several of the first stories this year have spoiled me and this incredibly retro-ific outing just didn't do much for me. There's a feel to the production design that seems to harken way back to the 3rd & 4th Doctors era.

This was one of the most overt political episodes in recent times & it just doesn't really work.
Considering how good the last few episodes have been the let-down after the Doctor's trick is revealed was just too hard to overcome.

If it wasn't zombie slayers than maybe a coup?

apart from the accent.

And in LoT Thawne had Snart and his cold-gun *right there*. He's probably kicking himself in some temporal paradox somewhere.

Because plot.

It could have been worse, but for a show about speedsters it really dragged.

As executioner he vowed to look after her body for a thousand years, that means guarding it and not just leaving it to look after itself while he gallavants around the galaxy. Presumably the university gig is what he's doing to allieviate his boredom.

Shea really has been trying to help Nina, during the Snatch Game she seemed to be trying to feed her a couple of gimme lines that ended up undermining her own performance. BUT she has made a couple of Big Speeches that maybe she thought were supportive but could be seen incredibly intrusive to someone who lives more…

They probably chose Brando as it fits in with the Terminator gag more than Steve Austin.
