Wait, how much are they expanding on this? Because that was one of the strengths of both the original book and film. Short, to the point, enough backstory to add to the creep factor, but not enough to weigh it down, and (Spoilers for a 50+ year old work) nothing was ever overt. The modern version got all that wrong

Dalek just didn't know how to handle that there was going to be a female Doctor, I guess.

…But.AMC already exists.

In complete seriousness, I applaud you for taking the high road, it's nice to not always add to the negativity. However, it's also within human nature to want to feel a sense of retribution against someone who's done wrong. While she's hardly on the level of some bloodthirsty dictator or murderer, she's still

Shit, for 17 mil. I'd let someone call me Crippy-Crippy Tembo and steal
my wheelchair right from under me in the middle of the bad part of town.

It's NBC, can you truly say you're surprised?

Stories from an alt-right source
That were straight lies.
But she talked them up anyway
Right before our eyes.
Oh, it's too late for you
There's nothing you can do!
Megyn, Megyn: you are through!

Wait, when did Dev Patel receive Jim Croce's walk-in spirit?

…Yes. Yes we have. Next question.

Ah, that most American of ideals: "I bet I could make a buck off of this."

Bees. My God.

That still baffles me that NBC wouldn't have wanted that particular feather in their cap. It's like the family of James Arness had some compromising photos of an executive, or something.

"You son of a bitch, you didn't make the movie, you just took the credit, you didn't make the movie, you just took the credit! WHY WHYYYYYYYYYYY?!"

That;s all you've got to say to him?

No, you;re thinking of Rape Stove.

Seriously. that's like. the family's dinner, dude; rude as hell. Also, if I ate that much red meat that goddamn late, I'd probably get visions of ripping my face off in the bathroom, too.

If I had to play the "optimist (i,e.desperately clinging to the better side of humanity) in this, I would say it's more the former, as it's human nature to want to be able to want to believe that you or someone else is never without agency in your life; and that someone who would "do" such a thing as get assaulted

"This is the song/playing at the White House/when the prez/gets into the truck/THEY TRIIIIIIED TO KILL HIM WITH A FORKLIFT!"

Also, these things usually don't start OUT as being culty. Usually, it's a bunch of people getting together with shared beliefs, or, in this case, what is essentially a business arrangement. (albeit a sketch one) By the time these things get to the point where flags are raised, tit becomes a massive prosecutorial
