I'm quite excited for the new series as I love the poo poo out of Peter Capaldi and everything he does. This news, though? Not quite as exciting for us Aussies: ABC 2 posted:Rove McManus: The Next Doctor? No… the next big Whovian! Essentially it's Talking Dead for Who nerds but with a live audience and possibly terrible guests?

Box of Bunnies posted:Ditch Rove and Bajo, get Jordan from Axis of Awesome back as a regular. Just her, Tegan, and Adam with whatever weekly guest would be brilliant. Bajo rules, way better than having Stephen Bloody Conroy on there Bicyclops posted:"Never have I had time for the luxury of outrage." That's one of the good things about that Whovians show, they showed the Doctor saying that and then immediately a montage of the Doctor being outraged, including 12 just bashing up the TARDIS console.

There may have been production restrictions but some of that came off really poorly in the latest episode. Why waste spacewalking time on two characters we don't know at the start, and then tell not show the Doctor saving Bill by sacrificing his own health? Also that photo of Bill's Mum floating over her as she "died" was pretty cringeworthy. My wife spent the rest of the night puzzling how Bill survived, so it certainly wasn't explained very well.

Speaking of leaving a familiar face in the TARDIS when a new doctor comes along, whose to say that Bill being gay doesn't lead to a possible romance angle with the new Doctor?

The problem with the "series of little mistakes" leading to doom was that they were all loving stupid Who holds a door open with their handbag? How did that guy not trip over the loving handbag that was in his doorway? Who gets so blind drunk that they actually have loving vision problems the next day and not go to a hospital?!? The lab itself was bloody stupid because blind people being unable to work in a lab aside, when working with chemicals poo poo splashing in your eyes is a real threat - I didn't see any eye wash stations in there so the combo lock should have been able to be operated by someone who was temporarily blind. In the episode's one defence Erica could have opened the door for the Doctor but "it was in lockdown". But then the Doctor had an active phone call with Bill, which he could have done a loving video call to get Bill to tell him what to do! ARGH. Anyway, they interviewed Moffat on Whovians and he came off as quite a lovely chap. I also had a bit of a fist pump moment when the doctor figured out the cameras.

Also it looked like there was absolutely nothing else in the bag otherwise it would have protected the glasses

What was the behind the scenes drama with Smith? I thought he left early to crack Hollywood? And thank God Gatiss won't be showrunner. He can take his stupid gurning face out of all shows forever please.

Since when can the Doctor fake regenerating? I know he can call it "on demand" a bit, but that seemed to be a lot more. A theory raised on Whovians was that due to Missy having defeated the monks before that they're actually working for her - to get her out of the vault, to take over the earth, to get the Doctor to kill Bill, or maybe all of the above. IT could have potential, but the monks characterisation so far has been so threadbare that if and when they return in the finale I doubt it'll land like the writers want it to.

It felt like two episodes stretched into three for me. And I wish that Bill having that imaginary version of her Mum around would've been better if we'd had more hints at it during the season.

Did anyone catch the line about Bill saying the giant fish was in Paris? Where did that come from?

It also made a good fakeout for the whole series teaser.

Can someone explain to me the difference between Mondasian Cybermen and... Cybermen? I understand they're distinctly different in canon but why? Did they cybes just get rebooted at some point?

Thanks! I agree the newer ones look a lot more sleek and streamlined and less horrifying.

Doctor Spaceman posted:Thanks to the Lie of the Land it's become impossible to give a poo poo about teased regeneration scenes so the start of the episode fell completely flat. Start of the episode he's regenerating in the snow and in the next week trailer some regeneration energy comes out when he's on grass, we could have at least TWO more fakeouts!

That episode was great! My only gripe was with the stakes at the end and with Missy - if the Doctor was just going to nuke the whole floor what help could Missy have provided?
