some reviewers don’t know what an anthology is.

anyways, any review on an episode needs to be from the lens “Does this leverage the premise of ‘What If’ for a compelling story, Y/N?”

100%, and some fans too. I don’t know what people want this to be. Every episode is literally what you say it is. COmics wise it was almost always batshit dark and somewhat dumb shit.

This. I seriously don’t get why reviewers are extra hard on this show considering what it’s based on and on what they can do.

Finding it’s voice? It’s voice is what if. That’s it. That’s the premise.

It’s based on a comic where creators were given the ability to screw with established characters. It’s a bunch of people in a room asking Wouldn’t it be cool if...”
It sounds like you’re looking for deep meaning and continuity in a show that is

Now playing

“Pictures in My Head” from Jason Segal’s Muppet movie was the tribute to Jim Henson by those who grew up on the Muppet Show. 

Disney execs don’t “get” a lot of the properties they bought.

And while Rhodey can put cannons on his mechanical person, the MCU cannot do the same with its lore.

Another show hitting the MCU cannon at Disney+ with War Machine as its titular hero”

Can it be 12 Parsecs a Slave?

I’ve not actually loved a single Chibnall episode. Not one. None of them are as good as anything Russ T. Davies or Moffat did, and Moffat wasn’t even a good showrunner. But...he did give us episodes like Blink, or the Girl in the Fireplace or the episode with Vincent Van Gogh. They were really...really good.

It’s sad. I was one of the people who most championed that the Doctor being regenerated as anything other than a white male would give the series a fresh shot in the arm... and then, like, the exact opposite happened. I was bored within the first episode.

Easy to pile on with the YEA! Chibnall is leaving!!! (Yes, this is exactly how I feel). Probably not for the obvious reasons (bad scripts), but literally everything else about the show:
* bad editing / pacing.
* bad audio (this isn’t Spinal Tap, the background music should not be turned up to 11 the entire episode).

I hate to pile on but also surprised you found ten. The only ones I remember much of were from her premiere and the frog. Surprised that there was nothing from the Ruth Doctor. 

I hate to be a cynic, I really do...

Wow, you could find 10? Not gonna lie, I’m glad to see Chris Chibnall go.  I really wanted to like Jodie, however, she invoked 0 tears, a first for any Doctor.

I said this in different words in the last version of this thread, but it bears repeating: Disney made the right call in pivoting to streaming given the unprecedented times we are living in. They made the absolutely wrong call in not involving all the stakeholders (including the stars of their movies) in the process,

The quick answer is that Omega is the backup copy, she’s not an accelerated-aging clone, she’s genuinely 10-13 years old so they made her when Jango was alive. And a living organism with a genome is the easiest way to keep a genome around, clearly they could have made a few more generation one clones and either ran a

I can’t wait to see Temuera Morrison play a grown-up Omega in a wig!

I agree with Mackie’s larger point that fans should stop trying to read queer subtext into every close male relationship in film. People have been doing the shipping thing for a long time now in fandom circles, and it’s really not great. When there’s this push to say “oh, Frodo and Sam are definitely gay,” it degrades

I don’t understand how there is enough of her in the movie to hate? Like she has such a small roll and so few lines that It’s weird how people latched on her to hate, for what ever reason.
