I liked Missy above everything else in the episode. I know it's a fault of the writing, but Jenna Coleman just doesn't interest me at all and the fact that she went from seeing Missy kill several UNIT agents to being friends with her almost immediately after was so weird, as if she was like "oh well if the Doctor still likes you then it doesn't matter that you're a murderer"

His non-finale episodes typically are either Base Under Siege (Tooth and Claw, Midnight) or Society Gone Wrong (The Long Game, Gridlock) - not grand scale invasions.

I rewatched Midnight the other day. It still holds up as one of the best NuWho single episodes imo.

On the other hand, you said 'NuWho' unironically so we know what your opinion is worth.

I like Midnight too

Also Jack is from the 50th century or thereabouts; probably by then they have lifespans into 200 years or so, and there could be some genetic engineering/evolution at hand that would help memory.

I think it's also worth comparing why Jack isn't such a dick. Of course, he's had less time than Ashdlr; could he be headed for the same fate? Could the Doctor meet a Jack in the year 2300 who is a raging evil rear end in a top hat? That'd be worth an episode.

Wait, I thought it was heavily implied that Jack turned in to the Face of Boe after thousands or hundreds of thousands of years?
