York_M_Chan posted:I was watching some of the Clara eps during the marathon and had literally no memory of most of the episodes. I loved Capaldi but not the stories. She did no such thing. She was using the residual energies to try new things and if the Doctor wasn’t Sigma and paid more attention at school s/he’d know how.

This whole thing feels like it's going to be the Hunt for the TARDIS most of the season and I sincerely hope each place they teleport to becomes increasingly more contrived and ridiculous.

Lunatic Sledge posted:how did she survive the fall into the train? the doctor's been killed mid-regeneration before, and a fall from that height should totally have done it. in this essay Ten crashed through a ceiling and landed from a pretty good height on his last/penultimate (I forget which) episode. They can survive longer in the vacuum of space and without oxygen, so I want to say Time Lords are tough enough to survive long falls in certain ways but, well, Four.

Something that struck me about the entire thing: I had zero problems seeing Whittaker as anything except the Doctor from the second she came through the ceiling, but when someone at the end said "Doctor" and she looked up to answer them, it was still really disorientating for me. And it was great

corn in the bible posted:I have only listened to like eight or nine big finishes ever so really any recommendations are good. I've basically heard, uh, the monthly range from storm warning to chimes of midnight and that's it. I like Charley and 8 together, they seem fun. That also does include Colditz, which was rad as hell. Maybe I'll just start from the beginning and listen to everything in order lol gfd shadow of the scourge is fun and witty why is everyone laughing at me about it

Narsham posted:You're not alone. I've heard and read opinions ranging from "Worse than The Twin Dilemma" to "best of the season thus far." I'd go so far as to call it Chibnall's best Who episode (as a solo writer, at least). So from negative infinity to 1. Got it.

Jerusalem posted:An episode cliffhanger is,"I'm going to rape Erimem!" and then they spend like the first 3 minutes of the next episode with one character saying how disgusting what the would-be rapist did to Erimem was, before he reveals the "happy" news that nah he just beat the utter poo poo out of her when she made it too difficult for him to rape her. Wait, is this the one where the Doctor gets his head chopped off and comes back to life later because ~reasons~

Bicyclops posted:Finally saw the episode. I still like Demons of the Punjab better, but that was some sweet, classic Who style fun. It was just WEIRD. The little moth cave un-universe with the Gaimanesque barterer guy and his balloon lantern, the frog universe friend, the whole literally through the looking Glass thing. I couldn't deal with it every week, but it's great to just engage in some trippy fantasy. Graham’s going to find his pocket watch, which is odd, because he doesn’t remember owning a pocket watch...

twistedmentat posted:I got excited when they posted a trailer for an X-mas special with Rory and Amy in it, and thought "oh cool the new Doctor and Companions are going to meet with older ones!" then realized that one was from a few years ago. That just shows how little of an impact the X-mas specials have had on me. Why does no one remember The Snowmen? That’s probably my favorite Eleven episode hands down.

Ither posted:This episode was easily the best of the season, which sort of makes me mad. I kind of feel like all the scripts this season were made for Insert Doctor Here instead of Jodie and it's pretty hard to screw up "The Doctor Hates Daleks." That being said, the Doctor finding out UNIT had been defunded and reacting with "oh come ON ", for whatever reason, is when Thirteen finally clicked for me fully.
