As a white guy, I do not want the Doctor to be a white guy again. Not this time, anyway. He's already been 13 white guys.

Don't forget squashed. Kris Marshall looks like one of those Persian cats.

That's actually the calculus that leads me to think they might go the grrl power route and cast a young woman.

Yes, OK.

Please not another white guy. If it's Kris Marshall… *sigh* That would just be so goddamn disappointing.

I mean, I'd make fun of him, but it's been pretty obvious for several years now that he's struggling with mental illness and/or substance abuse issues, so…

Why wouldn't he?

It always rings when the Doctor is near death/regeneration…

Been a pleasure, Alasdair. Glad you're getting to go out on a high note with this absolute cracker of a season finale. Best of luck at the new digs.

Shohreh alone, with her fabulous wardrobe and filthy one-liners, should have put The Expanse over the top.

The Expanse isn't on here. Therefore this list is invalid.

NARRATOR: "He wasn't."

I mean, he has like three minutes of screentime and the movies themselves are garbage, so…

WHITE LADY!

This episode wasn't bad, but it wasn't good either. Pretty much completely forgettable. And as Alasdair points out, a whole scad of missed opportunities to really dig at the heart of British imperialism. Everything was there! The Ice Warriors and their mixture of unbridled militarism and honorable nobility, which is…

I can't go into too much detail, but it involves tequila shots, a very ripe honeydew melon, and a filing cabinet.

I mean, I personally cannot. I'm in a feud with multiple casting directors in the New York theater community, so sadly, I don't have much pull.

At least, unlike on 30 Rock, they haven't passed a bill to legalize recreational whale torture.

I could be wrong, but I think she's indicated she has a plan for how long she wants the show to go and the story she wants it to tell, so I'm perfectly happy letting it play out according to her creative vision and then her going on to, I dunno, star in a Broadway revival of Mary Poppins or something.

Don't look at me, I use Lyft.
