"Stewart quickly became TNG’s secret weapon and his Shakespearean gravitas single-handedly elevated the quality of episodes like “Tapestry” and “Chain Of Command.”

One of the other big flaws of Enterprise was it's unwillingness to commit to being a prequel. 'Acquisition' and 'Regeneration' were some really clumsy attempts to shoehorn TNG era aliens into the plot. The knots the writers twisted themselves in to make sure their names weren't mentioned just take away from the…
I would add 'Ties of Blood and Water' to that list as well.
Well they allude that Spock dies and then comes back to life in IV but given it is a decades old spoiler at this point I don't think it counts.
Lamarr was also doing multiple voices on the show at that point so he ran our of ways to change his voice to make it more distinctive.
I'm going for Kidney Now. "Milton Greene, Milton Greene, Milton Greene, Milton Greene, Milton Greeeeeen"
I always get the urge to sing it at work and that would be a bad, bad song to sing in my work place.
Also the Kidney Now song. "I'm one of the drunk ones!" still makes me laugh out loud everytime.
The fact that both Jack the Writer and Jack-Tor show how Jack is also a very flawed character, or at least way out of his element in the television industry, was a great way to help balance the Jack/Liz relationship. As the series went on I felt that they were always portraying Liz as way more messed up than Jack (the…
Bluestone was obviously doing some more of his crazy investigations into the "Illuminati". I mean, such a thing could not possibly exist. Do you hear me. The Illuminati DOES. NOT. EXIST. (ominously melts into the shadows)
Well it has been said on the internet so it must be true. I'm sure Greg Weismen wont mind.
NOT AVAILABLE NEXT WEEK SINCE WE ARE APPARENTLY SWITCHING TO JLU FOR AWHILE
I want to believe that Xanadu is actually a skating rink where Xanatos has people recreate the movie at his whim.
Eh, I wouldn't count it. It is not a proper stand alone story for him. Maybe if they decide to give him his own stand alone story, but that's highly unlikely.
Just did this below too, but here it is again.
1. The Eleventh Hour
2. Spearhead from Space
3. Rose
4. An Unearthly Child
5.The Christmas Invasion
6. Deep Breath
7. Robot
8. Castrovalva
9. Time and the Rani
10. The Twin Dilemma
The big problem, which I laid out in more detail in another comment, is that they are trying to address issues they have been having with both Clara and the Doctor and in trying to fix them both at the same time it doesn't leave a lot of room for the plot. Still, I think this episode has pointed everyone in the right…
So overall good but like others have said it did seem to meander around more than it needed to. I also think it suffers some from the split focus between Clara and the Doctor.
If only they had taken the lesson of a well thought out series outline too.
Plus there is also "Gaeta's Lament" one of Bear McCreary's best piece music he made for the series.
