Jsor posted:You're thinking of "failing" wrong. Movies fail in the technical sense that 2+2 fails at being greater than 5. It's just an inexact sorting mechanism. Yes, some stupid people blindly apply it in a needlessly stringent way; that doesn't mean it's invalid, it means those people are idiots. That doesn't pass the Bechdel test. It must be used by a woman on another woman, without said persons referencing any males!

Android Blues posted:Actually, I'd probably have thought the same thing but someone checked and the Davies era passes far more often - in the case of one companion's tenure, in every single episode she's in. I was surprised that Rose wasn't the longest running companion. She only felt like that.

Based on chatblock it is an A? Clearly a peak episode of Doctor Who!

I'd otherwise give this review an A, but the stone-blowjob meltdown at the end drops it to an F. Just kidding. Still an A. Would read again.

AndwhatIseeisme posted:The best thing about the Weeping Angels in this episode is their simplicity of design. Keep your eyes on them and your completely safe, look away and you're gone the second they touch you. No convoluted overly-complicated traps, no nonsensical monster designs, no quasi-magical powers. Just simple, elegant design. It's fun to notice, that the Weeping Angels don't ever move on camera, even if the characters aren't looking. That is because YOU are watching them!

If I calculated correctly, there are 76 episodes + full length specials left to review. Divide that by 2 and you get 38 more weeks of reviews plus Christmas break. You'll be finished sometime during the Summer. Then add 41 episodes of Torchwood... Issaries fucked around with this message at 12:08 on Oct 2, 2014 |

On Contrary, leave the Old Who behind and enjoy the sound of modern day Who.  Preferrably the Eight Doctor Adventures, but DoctorWhat and others probably can prescribe deeper cuts from the whole range.

It might start as few episodes Firefly, but soon you'd be doing lines of Dollhouse off a hookers rear end and enjoying it from a feminist perspective.

This is a fun little episode, but I prefer Partners in Crime over it. Best laughs I had this episode: Tardis as a modern piece of art the dad bought. Soothsayer-off with Lucius and Evelina.

a Better analogue would be the 1st Halloween special of the Community, where Jeff (OCC) skips the Annie's (hcreight) Halloween party to woo the Professor Slater (Doctor Who) like a grown up. the People leave the livewatch, because there's no cool people in it. It all ends up with Oxxidation building a giant fortress out of chairs while tripping out. I don't know how that relates to the analogue, but Oxxidation is definitely Pierce.

If she was brought back for just this lovely two-parter where for most of it, Agyeman didn't even get to play her own loving character I would've screamed. If you ever feel needing more Martha-episodes, she's was in couple of episodes in Torchwood.
