I’d sell my soul to Mallus to have the Swamp Thing show back as it was and with Matt Ryan as Johnny C showing up in it. 

this show should NEVER end and have a rotating cast until the end of time.

Also current show standings.
1) LoT (not one bad episode this season, not surprising)
2) Superman and Lois (super close to 1 but shaving a few points b/c of the initial issues in the writer’s room with the race issues, HOWEVER, they get points…

I expect it to be resolved by the end of the next episode. You have to maintain continuity to allow Spooner to reappear in the future and maintain the time loop, otherwise she disappears and the entire season will be undone. The Fountain will be restored in some sense...perhaps final good deed in death by John.

present chris also seems to have a different face every time you look at him. i mean what’s going on in the header image? was half the vfx budget spent on smoothing his skin or something ?

They do address this in the film and I wasn’t sure how much detail to get into in the review; sometimes with sci-fi, I wonder if I’m making the movie sound dumb, or preserving some of the plot. But the movie’s time-travel is explained thusly: Time flows forever forward, as if you’re on a raft heading down a river.…

That’s all in the movie.  Research into how to defeat them is in its nascent stages though, so there’s nothing to send back... yet. 

Glad someone finally pointed out the obvious Doctor Who vibe to the show, the zaniness, the music, kooky locales, etc. So the variant is a female Loki but I’m also getting potential variation of the Enchantress, which is a character I’m continually surprised they haven’t used in the MCU.

I don’t know much about this, but Nonso Anozie seems like an actor who should have some more prestige and fame so I hope this does fairly well.

You know what I want? Anything from the writers that gives something big and meaty for Whitaker to dig into:

And Capaldi is punk rock as fuck!

100%. I genuinely appreciate the way you have expressed this because it is how I feel about things! I don’t watch them intended to be critical or analytical, but when something is boring or not fun is when I start to dissect why. Like when I watched the Hobbit or Star Trek Into Darkness.

Heaven Sent was absolutely incredible on every level. It gives me chills just thinking about it. Absolutely one of the best.

I think Capaldi has the best character arc of any of the Doctors, past or present. He goes through the most personal change and growth, essentially fulfilling the original plan for Colin Baker’s “asshole in an ugly coat” 6th Doctor. 

If any Doctor was meant to last more than three seasons it was Capaldi. No worries about being type cast at this point in his life, not a new actor looking to launch a career and move on, lifelong fan of the show. If he wouldn’t stay more than three seasons, I’m not sure anyone will.

I really want some of these “traditions” to go, especially the showrunner staying longer; I really, really want a modern-era Doctor to bridge a showrunner transition, and for people to stop talking like it’s necessary for the cast to turn over when the boss does.

I'll happily argue with anyone alive or dead that Heaven Sent is the best episode in the entirety of the show's run. It is a stone cold masterpiece that somehow gets better with every rewatch

Capaldi’s final two seasons are the best

I’d say series 5 is Moffat’s strongest—he actually delivered on a coherent and satisfying season arc, and his go-to trick of playing around with time travel and continuity still felt more like magic and less like misdirection at that point. Capaldi, however, is my favorite Doctor, and I’m with you on series 9 in terms…

I’ll politely disagree with that. Capaldi’s final two seasons are the best one-two punch since Season 26 + Series 1. And Series 5 is easily the best season of the revival.

And for all the shit Moffat has gotten from sectors of the internet, he was the person who first introduced Jack, clearly established Time Lords were gender-fluid, created some classic characters like Vastra & Jenny, and say what you will about some of the choices for female characters but he wrote a lot of great ones…
