No. The darkened teasers at the top of the article are newly released and preview a production-ready Ioniq 5. You can view the press release confirming it here: https://www.hyundainews.com/en-us/releases/3236

Nope, iron pots were in use in the Han Dynasty. It’s a damn fun period to read about! Most weeks I can’t even get motivated enough to do my basic 21st century chores, and here these people were nearly 2000 years ago, smelting 24/7 with no complaints.

Your wife is kinda taking a kosher approach about pans, in that if meat has touched it, it’s traif forever. Here’s the deal: if you’ve seared meat it in, there’s a chance that during the cooking process some of the oil polymerized onto the pan. Could be a microscopic amount, but it still happened. If you wash it with…

I love the energy that Jodie Whittaker brings to the role, manic and yet down to earth, and that she is tough but can be a little vulnerable too.

I was so excited for Jodie Whittaker to be the first female doctor, but have been disappointed with her entire tenure, and not because of Whittaker. To me, the problem seems to be that, for the most part, the writers are still male, and it shows. Pretty early on with the 13th I got thoroughly sick of men in the…

One of the maddening things about the Chibnall era is that Moffat — having finally realized that he was going to kill himself and the show if he tried to maintain S5-7's production pace — assembled a murderer’s row of supporting talent for his last few seasons and if you wanted to pick a showrunner out of them you…

My biggest issue with the Chibnall era is that everything feels low stakes even in the few episodes that aren’t. This was a big, huge, Dalek taking over the earth episode, the kind of episode RTD would go all out on, and yet there wasn’t any tension in it, no feeling of bigness to it. It was supposed to be a big, epic…

Pretty much. The ideal Doctor Who showrunner is — and I’d argue always has been (and I’m looking at you as well in some ways RTD) — a professional TV writer who has a fondness for old and new Doctor Who but didn’t really grow up with being a Doctor Who fan as a defining part of their identity. Like, they maybe watched…

I think they should get somebody who wasn’t a big Fan Boy of the show to take over. The history of the show can sometimes weigh it down, especially when the writer or creator gets carried away by letting their fan boy urges run loose. For instance, the whole “Timeless Child” bit probably meant more to Chibnall as a…

I wish there was a way to keep all the good decisions of the Chibnall era (the casting, especially Jodie; the really smooth-looking CGI and cinematography; the focus on historicals and more down-to-earth characters) without, to put it simply, his writing. Every now and then he does churn out a decent episode, like The…

His last episode summed it up well.  Just a long series of goodbyes to all the characters as the Doctor dies.  Its overblown as all hell but its emotional as can be.

While previous showrunners Russell T. Davies and Steven Moffat were masters of bombast and melodrama, there’s a staid quality to Chibnall’s writing.

We’re all agreed that the worst thing Chibnall could do is ship Thirteen with Jefferson Darcy Cousin Oliver Upscale Rob Brydon, right?

Why on Earth would you replace Bradley Walsh with John Bishop? Why would you cast a Liverpudlian in a show which foreigners watch? How are non-English people gonna understand Liverpool?

A thousand times yes! If you’re going to emulate a writer of Classic Who, first choice should always be Robert Holmes. At the very least, Terrance Dicks, as then  you can tell a cogent story. I did think during the episode that the characters Chibnall seemed to be writing the best for were the Daleks. Since the Daleks…

RTD was the master of writing good emotional scenes, even in overblown episodes that I’m otherwise not crazy about.

It’s amazing how this is a 70 minute special, the first episode for nearly a year, and it’s so unbelievably stupid that its entire inciting incident is so contrived it’s pathetic.

I’ve often wondered why Chibnall spends so much time on overthought, uninteresting plots loaded with banal exposition and unnecessary detail. It occurs to me that he might be trying to channel the style Terry Nation. The difference is, his style of worldbuilding makes much more sense in a 6-part serial than in a 45…

Yeah, but in that context, it’s weird.
