And replaced by his actually Scottish cousin! Silly contagious chicken pox. Also, the whole Rapunzel thing was cute, and the unicorn debacle, and evil!companions….

Also, it was totally Michael Grade's fault that Doctor Who was canceled, and not really Colin Baker's at all. His arc was intentionally similar to One's.

I was just re-listening to Storm Warning today (I'm trying to get to Zagreus by Saturday) AND IT'S SO EXCELLENT. I don't think I realized at first how amazing it is.

I was probably amused when I was 16?

Ooooh, Bestie Buddies!

If Enemy of the World shot him up there, try out Mind Robber. WACKY SHIT HAPPENS, DUDE.

Someone pointed out that you hear his voice first, just the same as it is in all the audios, and THEN you get to see him. And it just seems so incredibly appropriate.

People have actually signed petitions for him to get a mini-series. I love how instantly enamored New Who fans are with him.

Looking forward to you healing 50 years worth of debate in an entire fandom. That should be entertaining.

I could kind of see all the beats for this episode coming (including Peralta's trick), but I had to laugh at the pigeons.

NOW can we start calling the Tom fans, "Freemisons"? I've been waiting for this to catch on for weeks.

And with the introduction of "downvotes" I now realize that AV Club has become a subreddit.

OH JEEZ IS IT CHRISTMAS ALREADY

I see that as less of a problem and more of an opportunity.

I resent those companion descriptions! Jamie has learned how to read and tell time (his wristwatch) by now, far beyond any of his abilities when he first joined the Doctor. Maybe he's not a super genius, but he's well above average. And Victoria, while scared by monsters, has consistently been brave when facing…

But it's totally okay with waving away Martha in Shakespearean England?

Enemy is FANTASTIC. There's a scene between Frazer and Patrick where I totally forget it's the same actor.

I love Nick's face when Jess starts going off on the nun rant.

"I'm going to regret teaching him that one."

The visual image of Samberg on the floor and the dialogue in that scene sent me reeling.
