I am usually an apologist for shitty Doctor Who episodes, but this was just bad, for all the reasons you describe. Did not make a lick of sense.

“3,500-word treatise” —> “3,500-page treatise”

The CMAs.

Why do you think this battle is less important, just because it happened first?

It’s a theme of the series that things don’t happen in the ‘right’ order, and that life is messy.

As someone else pointed out, even if it’s just the dozen or so younger dead, it’s still going to be a nightmare.

Yep. Raising the dead is the Night King’s entire MO. Surely this has crossed someone’s mind??

I’m a fellow in a Senator’s office. To be fair, I didn’t touch the desk - the Senator took a handful, and offered one to me. 

I have eaten from the Candy Desk, and am excited to hear more!

I grew up in BC, and didn’t realize until exactly now that no one else does fireworks on Hallowe’en. Probably comes from merging Hallowe’en and Guy Fawkes, yes? 

I’m going as Mario and my very small dog is going as Toad.

Anyone else concerned about a racist who knows how to meddle with time being sent *way* back? 

OK, the review alone damn near made me cry. As someone who regularly checks doesthedogdie.com, I recognize that this movie is not for me.

I enjoyed the episode, but the punchline (they staged this deadly mission for a teddy bear??) undermined it for me. Also, it didn’t have the big concept appeal of most Black Mirror episodes - it was just an hour long chase scene (a good one, mind).

Late to the game, I know, but I have to speak up for this episode. It had a perfect “Black Mirror” premise: technology fixes a problem and makes everything worse. The problem: our justice system relies on eye witnesses, and eye witnesses are notoriously unreliable. So, what if technology made them more-or-less…

Trainspotting with my step-dad. He rented it because he thought it was about trains.

I haven’t figured out how to search comments on the new system, so forgive me if this has already been thoroughly discussed. In the third quarter of this episode, the away team clearly showed the freckles of the mega-ship’s population, but I didn’t hear an explanation of that - plus, the freckles seemed to disappear…

Cookie! You survived the crossover! All is not lost.

Whenever I buy Costco's version, I keep the leftover marinade and put it on *everything* until it's all gone. Probably not good food hygiene, but I just don't care.

Mm, I think we'll find that Arya's ambush isn't what it looked like. Maybe that's me having too much faith in the writers - heaven knows it has happened before [shakes fist at LOST].

I think you are correct.
