i'm sorry, the talking babies are deeply disconcerting

RTD is back and the doctor is once again the last of the time lords
|

|
|

|
the snot monster is... a choice
|

|
|

|
alright, so they're clearly gonna go back and see Ruby's mother
|
|||
|
|

this was an okay episode. not great, not terrible. I really like both Ncuti Gatwa and Millie Gibson so far. I am cautiously optimistic about the rest of the season and hopefully less ridiculous plots

"I thought that was non-diegetic"

if they couldn't afford to license any beatles music (i guess not even that disney money is enough), then why did they go back in time to see the beatles?
|

this was a good episode. it was silly and fun without being so absurd that you can't suspend your disbelief (like the last one)
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
although that last musical number was not great. that sorta thing really only works when the song is, uh, good

This was a very good episode. Gatwa and Gibson did not do the best job at the more serious parts of the episode, but overall I really enjoyed it.

I like that we're seeing Ruby on her own. I feel like it doesn't often happen, but when it does it's interesting.

I found Roger ap Gwilliam too funny to be scary—this guy has made his whole personality about one thing and that thing is nukes. lmao
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Not sure how I feel about the ending—I would have liked a little bit more of an explanation—but overall I really enjoyed that episode.

I have never seen Bridgerton, so I can only assume the reason we're getting orchestral Bad Guy is because that's what would happen on Bridgerton

"Your birdiness"

this was a fun episode. not much else to say. I enjoy the monster of the week formula

I was really hoping Harriet was somehow going to be Harriet Jones, Prime Minister (we know she is)
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
I have never even seen classic Doctor Who and don't know who Sutekh is, but that was an incredible reveal
|

|

this was a fantastic episode

the smart gloves and smart rope were… sure, whatever, I’ll accept it. far from the most ridiculous thing doctor who has ever done
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
but no one else is there, why would ruby’s mom point dramatically at a street sign
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
This episode was pretty good, though I think I enjoyed the suspense of the previous episode much more.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
I hope that this isn’t the end for Ruby/Millie Gibson, I thought she was a good companion

This season was very good, with the exception of a couple episodes.
|
|||
|
|
|||
|
Ncuti Gatwa and Millie Gibson were both great. Russell Davies seems like he's still got it (the second part of a two-parter being somewhat disappointing is nothing new; see, e.g., The Sound of Drums vs. Last of the Time Lords).

And I am once again disappointed that Jodie Whittaker's seasons didn't have better writing
