Someone in the comments posted a second-hand account of RTD's explanation for that (and then I paraphrased it later). It was unpleasant and dispiriting, so let's just say there are only so many ways to jam a face together and in all of time and space you're bound to run into a few look-alikes. Heck, I've been told of…

I also thought it was laying it on a bit thick in the moment, but in hindsight, Donna and Amy were both just as flirty (or thirsty, depending on how you read it).

It wouldn't have been the first time where I doubted a show was making the allusion you'd think it was making. As a matter of fact, Vox's review missed the music cue and thought it was the sentiment itself that changed the Doctor's mind, and not the specific reference to Clara erasing his memory.

I was about to say I liked "In the Forest of the Night," but then I remembered that was the one with all the trees (you know what I mean) and that I was thinking of "Hide."

It wasn't overtly explained, but the Doctor has a tossed-off line in "Day of the Moon" after finding the Silents ship deducing that the TARDIS-knock-off from "The Lodger" was the same ship in it's future. Something like, "I found a ship like this once before. It had crashed, never found out why, but I have a feeling…

I think it's more than that; he can remember everything that happened, but not her part in it. Like all her dialogue and description had been redacted out of the book of his life. He knows there's something there, under the black bars. He knows it's called "Clara" because everyone else keeps talking about some "Clara"…

I do love the bonus scene after "The Eleventh Hour," because it explains why the TARDIS is always a Police Box, but isn't always the same Police Box.

I've heard good things about Verity and Radio Free Skaro. I haven't actually listened to the shows themselves (DDW's intermittent schedule was a much better fit for my massive podcast backlog), but I've heard several of the hosts on other shows and enjoyed their perspectives, and they've definitely got a deep…

That always deeply confuses me. I'd really like to know in detail how shooting Doctor Who differs from a comparable American prime-time show with 20+ episodes a year. Granted, even long seasons on US shows have lost episodes compared to the old half-year 26-episode seasons decades ago, but to hear actors who played…

There's really quite a lot of family-murder in the subsequent episodes, which I wouldn't describe as continuing the low-stakes aspects of the pilot.

For an embarrassingly long time (like, up until a later episode made it clear, I think. It's all sort of run together at this point), I thought it was another example of Charlie misinterpreting Earth stuff and he didn't realize Prom was a romantic thing, and they were setting up, like, a farce when April was all "not…

Regarding the mind wipe, I was a little disappointed in the Doctor at first. I would've thought having it happen to him would've give him some pause about handing out brain-whammies like candy… but then Bill unknowingly reminded him of Clara taking all his memories of her, so that ended up being the case, after all.

I liked the callback to Bill imagining what her mom might've said at the end, where the Doctor has a brief imaginary conversation with River and Susan.

He reminded me a bit of General Hardass from Rogue One (as opposed to General Flyboy-Who'll-Give-The-Jerrys-What-For, and Admiral Fish-Churchill). He wouldn't be the first guy on Rebels to change his name…

Ah, that's the system. I'd been assuming the SyFy airing switched off between the short and long titles depending on episode length, just like the streaming versions (moreso in season one, when it went back and forth between the short and long versions, than season two, where it's been consistently the short version…

Huh? The Expanse's opening titles are just over a minute long.

That's as bad as having a "Battleship-Class Aircraft Carrier."

I believe Fitz was in the Framework before the botched rescue. There was robo-Radcliffe's line about the second LMD that didn't entirely make sense referring to himself, and the fact that Fitz set off the LMD detector the episode before the others were kidnapped (which he had explained away as it being set too…

It's probably not a coincidence that Fitz and May have been in the Framework longest and are also highly placed in Hydra. Coulson, Mack, and Mace were only plugged in for, what, a day or two before Simmons and Daisy arrived?

It's it way easier to fool everyone when it's not posted on April first.
