Being a children's show isn't an excuse for poor quality. Plus, the target demographic is families, anyway.

Good Fantasy also has explanations. Mechanical gods find no salvation there.

Therapy! Why does no one ever try therapy!?

But not before completing the Black Omen in three separate episodes and defeating the Emerald Weapon with double cast Knights of the Round.

245 now.

IT WAS ME, DOCTOR.

Eh, by that point the genetics are diluted enough that it doesn't matter. Technically every human on the earth is related at some point in their family tree.

I don't think it'd be hard to backpedal. It can be as simple as being wrong about using *all* the regenerations. The bigger issue is beings stuck in cyberspace after that dialogue about it killing the Doctor.

I like the idea that time is perceptual and that perception creates time instead of time guiding perception. If time is just a psychic construct, you can account for a lot of that timey-wimey stuff like fixed time and stable loops. That's all irrelevant, though, I suppose.

Speaking of leftover fears, the guy with the camera that then flashed a picture of a frowning little girl in the cold opening really freaked me out until I rewinded and saw the cake. I don't get why they flashed the birthday girl there instead of in the clown's room.

I really wish that interface had had GlaDOS's voice.

That first episode of The Aztects was my first exposure to Dr. Who a little while back. That fight scene coupled with the slow pace made me bail on classic Who after that single episode.

Really, this is an idiot plot. There never should have been an unlabeled two button system in place that's supposed to be a quarantine facility. The architects couldn't be bothered to put a robot terminal there to funnel people where they're supposed to go? That undermines the whole point of having a quarantine…

"He's the man that killed the toothbrush moustache."

Occam's Razor is used to discriminate between two otherwise similar solutions that are mutually exclusive. It doesn't work between Doylist and Watsonian reasons because they are not mutually exclusive.

I don't think you would after growing attached over years time.

Is this also your view of tetraplegics? Why does the implied consensual sex horrify you more than the fact that the other people in their group actually died? She's not really in a situation where real people haven't been before, and I think most of them are glad they survived.

I think Love and Monsters is better than the Satan Pit on the grounds that it gives an interesting view into how regular people see the Doctor and give an interesting meta take on fandom as a whole. The monster isn't really meant to be scary so much as buffoonish, so it works well enough. Other than a silly ending,…

It's funny when you realize that succeeding wouldn't have gotten them a year off but rather fired.

I take solace in the fact that I didn't have time between episodes to realize it on my own. Everything happened pretty fast, too.
