Yeah, it's like, third best for Christmas Specials. There's only been three good Christmas Specials, though.

Neddy Seagoon posted:I was actually a little sad about the fake-out, because Clara turning out to be old and enjoying her last Christmas with the Doctor really would've been a great ending for her. Not to say she's been a bad companion, just that it would've been a really good surprise ending on its own. I did like the Doctor muttering on about how he can't tell if she's old or not . You can thank Jenna Coleman for changing her mind about leaving at the very last second for that fake-out.

NarkyBark posted:I think everyone forgot Nightmare in Silver on purpose. Which is all the more disappointing because there was so much hype going into it. Gaiman, Warwick Davis, and revamped Cybermen should have been an easy slam dunk.

Love and Monsters is pure "I don't give a gently caress anymore" insanity and is awesome for it.

Bicyclops posted:The guy who wrote the Mummy episode is writing another one for the upcoming series, and I am pretty excited about that. He's confirmed, but so is Peter Harness for two episodes. For the record, I loved Kill The Moon, doofy science aside.

CaptainYesterday posted:"SOS" by Rihanna, which heavily samples "Tainted Love" by Soft Cell, which is featured in the Doctor Who episode The End of the World. Boom, two degrees of separation. Apparently we graduated high school the same week, because it's SOS for me too. But I lived under a rock back then, and hadn't even heard the song itself until months later in college.

So I'm almost done with my Series 8 rewatch and holy crap, I'm reminded of how loving bad In The Forest of the Night is. And not even for the weird "meds are evil" argument. It's just so poorly structured, scripted, and directed that it seems like it was improvised and thrown together at the last minute and rushed out the door. Were they paying too much attention to the finale to check up on the production team on this episode?

Dr. Gene Dango MD posted:The Enemy of the World is really good. Salamander may be my favorite Who villian. I like how that serial went from kinda one of the lesser talked about ones to getting such high praise once it was rediscovered. It's really, really good and shows how loving talented Troughton was.
