Yeah, I defended Hannah on the feeling front last episode too. This episode, not so much, because there is a difference being not feeling things society tells you to feel and being horrible to everyone because you don't even bother to think about whether there are consequences to your words, which is the mode in which…

The reason I originally wrote this was that Caroline inferred that Adam gets lost from people's lives once problems to be dealt with arise, but that's not true about how him and Hannah got back together at her lowest point in last season's finale and how he then took care of her.

It would be worse, but one can hope that would get greenlighted one day…

Your first argument boils down to "it doesn't matter what you do, if you don't feel the things you are supposed to feel it means you are selfish". How can one respond to that?

He smashes a car radio on a trip he didn't have to make to take a person he doesn't care about from rehab to benefit his girlfriend.

Exactly! Even though it would need some more shading than *pull villain switch*, like starting on his nobler impulses, trying to actually fix the world which the respect to fixed points in time prevented him from doing previously and gradually losing control of the situation… I'm not sure turning into the Master is…

Seeing 10th's apotheosis of himself in Waters of Mars was pretty nightmarish. I'd be interested in seeing this Luciferian version of himself expanded upon that particular episode.

I don't think it's that simple. I thought it would be a good decision simply because they're both defined as characters who found a calling to which they felt obliged to answer and therefore both ended up as soldiers of sorts. They really have much more in common than the first glance would suggest.

I wouldn't think it strange for Doctor's bit about monsters under the bed having nightmares about him to be inspired by Susan Sto Helit in Terry Pratchett's Hogfather.

I agreed with her on Hannah (somewhat), but out of the many bad things you can say about Adam, selfish is definitely not one of them.

He's cool, but I've never even registered his name. Had to google who you were talking about.

To this day The Girl in the Fireplace is the best episode of Doctor Who I've seen (I'm unfamiliar with Classic Who and only starting with Moffat Era Who though). Hell, it's one of the best episodes of anything I've ever seen. Who would have thought a simple time-travelling romance plot with added clockwork monsters…

She was horrible to him even before he told her the bad news. "I just had surgery…" "Lol like I care, listen to me talking about my book!"

Patrick is the cutest thing that ever happened on the TV screen and the drunker, more awkward he gets, the more I want to cuddle him forever.

There is one thing when you're not feeling the things you're supposed to feel and you're somewhat apologetic about it, which is why I felt sorry for her last episode, but this one? Every single cringeworthy thing she did or said could have been prevented had she *tried* a little bit to be aware of her surroundings and…

I'm still uncomfortable with both the increasing amounts of cringe humor and the show's subscription to the idea that its characters are fundamentally awful. It was always there, but this season, it feels like "You thought Hannah was self-absorbed and clueless? Well, this season, she's going to be the most…

"What'd you think I do?"
"I don't know, read, eat soup, write letters of complaint to local businesses?"

I don't even remember that happening, but I'll take your word for it

Yeah. Vampire Elena should have been about adding to the character, not substracting from it until she becomes an useless thing
