This makes me believe that Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure was just the story of two Cybermen with wild imaginations who stole the TARDIS.

Of course it was.



Nah, Robot Bill and Ted look too good to be Cybermen.

On one hand, I was looking forward to the LMS S4 thread. On the other hand, you're probably right and it's too tired and was never going to be as good as the S2/3 thread.

Im not in the business but I think there's more money in remakes than airing a show owned by a foreign company, so its not silly from a suit's perspective.

Regarding The Gay Stuff, this episode loving pissed me off on that front because in the process of being unsubtle about it, RTD managed to inadvertently be counterproductive; Cat Man apparently doesn't like to admit that the two nice old lesbians are two nice old lesbians, thus making the incredibly depressing prediction that homosexuality being regarded as weird and not normal will still be around and remembered to some degree five loving billion years from now. THANKS, RTD, THAT'S AWESOME.

Let's say all future humans regard it as normal, but cat people are really conservative. Cat people message boards are like Free Republic.

Yeah, that's a bit troublesome. I handwave it away by saying that Saxon allied himself with one of the parties and used his force of personality to get people to vote for his party, with the understanding that they'd elect him prime minister if they got a majority.

He probably just made up his own party with himself as leader, he's mind-controlling everybody anyway.

So the Doctor can only stop major catastrophic events (usually alien invasions of Earth) that he knows didn't happen, so whenever he Tardises to one in progress that he knows didn't happen, he must immediately know that he ultimately succeeds in stopping it and that's why he's always so confident and smug, no matter how many pepper shakers are flying around.

I'm not so invested in this show that I ever gave a poo poo about a scheduling hiccup. Neither should you, honestly, but we all have our faults. Breaking Bad had a split season and I didn't care then, either! And it's way better than Doctor Who on Who's best day!

"Split seasons" are one of those things that's endlessly complained about on TVIV that I never have a problem with, personally.

I wouldn't ever say the game needs to be shorter, but I'd agree that the zone size situation is weird. The first zone is gi-loving-gantic, and it's to the point where people were having to go around saying LEAVE THE FIRST ZONE WHEN YOU CAN because it was really easy to just sit there and do all of the most boring quests in the game and be overlevelled for everything else.

That being said, I've not found the amount of stuff to do to be Skyrim levels of totally overwhelming.

Eh, when a game gives level recommendations for story quests, I think getting over leveled is entirely your own fault.
