you’ve changed and I don’t like it

Lol, it's good to know you loved the finale

It's kind of like the Survival of RebootaWho 1. I hope there's a second reboot one day in the future.

So you're not going to review episodes 9 and 10? I personally liked them. Oh gods. What's happening to me? Where's my sense of quality in writing?

@@slateoffate9812 I loved the finale, but with doctor who I throw all standards out the window. I mean, I liked orphan 55 for god's sake haha

Because who would want to hit on 13? She looks like a she's made out of potato salad.

@@MissTomi I mean, her costume is borderline on Colin Baker's costume but I just liked the exchange between her and Lord Byron. If you look back, even to Paul McGann's TV movie, the doctor has had his fair share of flirty remarks and joked about partners. The Doctor's a Lady's Man in his eight, ninth, tenth and eleventh incarnations with Ten even having his 'Pretty Boy' status. Now the Doctor is a woman and has a younger body than Twelve, I felt it was only right to make a remark or two about it in some flirty jokes. I'm not asking for much, I just liked the exchange and am happy Chipnall (though I hate Chipnall) is finally addressing the fact that the Doctor is indeed a woman now and so should include some jokes, like the running joke about Eleven's chin and Twelve's eyebrows.

Emily Hadley Yes, it was funny and charming and made a lot of sense actually.

@@MissTomi that was a bit unnecessary but okay

Yeah, I did enjoy that. It would've been better if the Doctor was just a bit more receptive to it rather than being completely disgusted because "she is a woman and women hate when men flirt with them. That's called cat-calling, and cat-calling is wrong." I mean, I would be flattered if a historical figure like that hit on me.

the cracks from series 5. Solves any and every inconsistency in Doctor Who

@@HazarTulum Yet again Moffat ruins all the fun.

@@HazarTulum Or just time travel in general, the sheer amount of which that goes on is bound to mess up the timelines a little bit.

Well, this is what the Wiki says on this matter: "It offered an alternate account of the conception of Frankenstein by Mary Shelley to that of the audio story Mary's Story featuring the Eighth Doctor, though with the story acknowledging that what it was depicting was the result of history becoming unusually flexible around that night." So, because the Cyberium was sent back in time to 1816 by Ko Sharmus, that already changed history for the Shelleys. The Eighth Doctor stuff just happened before history was changed.

@@HazarTulum How? Everything was reset to normal. Like nothing happened

Really? I got more "Castrovalva" vibes myself, what with all of the recursive craziness going on...😅😂 This is no slight, btw..."Castrovalva" happens to be among my favorite Fifth Doctor stories...😁

Holy Shit! I'm not the only one who really got the Chimes of Midnight vibes upon first viewing it.

@@christopheralthouse6378 Honestly, when the creepy thing with the unending rooms started happening I was immediately reminded of Castrovalva has well! I was super happy, because as you said it's an excellent Five story and I was always kind of sad that they had never returned to this M. C. Escher'esque idea, because I always thought it fit perfectly with the style of Doctor Who. I really enjoyed this episode :D

Casual CraftMan Next question, would that be a regeneration story? Or a Valeyard one?

Indeed, but wasn't the Silver Turk set on a different day, and in Vienna?

I almost wrote a fanfic about that idea. Benefactors of War, I called it. Only ever wrote a synopsis.

It would be interesting to see that in more detail but isn't that kind of what happened in World Enough and Time? People inventing Cybermen so their population could survive. From memory, weren't the patients - the proto-Cybermen - volunteers trying to survive?

Not to mention that subset of adolescent Doctor Who fans who won't know what's going on.

Fraser James It might be a bit disrespectful seeing as how he was a real person but you could give him a mental illness that manifests in manic episodes which everyone around him just assumes is him hitting the Coke. Thematically it would make sense if you’ve read the original Dr Jekyl story.

Same

Jedi Spartan 38 lol I need to see that for real

Well at least it gave smug gits material to gloat over BF Fans... *sarcasm*

@@Cosmic-hobo That could be awesome! Of course if TV Who did it they'd focus entirely on Lovecraft's uh....unfortunate opinions. (Which to be fair you'd have to at least touch on, but shouldn't let it derail the whole story)

Gotta agree there that was a fantastic movie

One of the first horror movies I watched, man that was a trip

Most of the problems with Hell Bent are forgettable. It barely impacted Season 10.

raydarable The return of Gallifrey was important for 2 big reasons Firstly, it was really important for the Doctor’s overarching character arc. The Doctor stole the TARDIS to explore the universe as the first Doctor. However, it was only after his travels that he realised his perceived duty of responsibility to help the universe. He extends this belief and accuses the time lords of their failure to do so in his trial (the episode where the Doctor is fully realised as a character imo) and is exiled as a result. Thus establishes the Doctor’s antagonistic relationship with his people which lasts throughout the classic era. However, then the time war happens and it changes his perspective on his people after centuries of guilt and mourning. Then he realises that he was Gallifrey’s saviour and this completely recontextualises his relationship with them- not as an outcast but as a hero. The expectation and the set up for his return to Gallifrey is that he wants to forge a new and different relationship with his people and become more involved in the affairs of his planet. Yet this is betrayed (with nowhere for his character to logically progress) when he ignores this to just return to his life pre-timewar and scoot around the universe as if the last millennia of his life meant nought. Secondly, the return of Gallifrey would have given the show adequate structure and story progression if handled to its maximum potential. Several seasons should have been dedicated to the search for Gallifrey. Then seasons could have been spent dealing with the immediate problems faced upon its return. Lastly dealing with the legacy of Gallifrey’s return. Gallifrey and the Doctor’s relationship has always been the spine of Doctor Who imo (none more so than New Who) and the fact that they undercut its return in Hell Bent meant that the show was in free fall.

@@cjmcc5231 That's true, I thought Hell Bent was a huge let down. That being said, Season 10 does a decent job of telling a compelling story despite the previous season's faults, IMO.

Nah, Diodati is all the way in Switzerland. Jack was buried in Wales

That's what happened with Stephen king's carrie , I'm convinced hes right about the Jekyll and hyde destruction thing

Yeah I've got plenty of ideas after I've got this season of dr who out the way. I wanna cover some horror, I really like Netflix's Haunting of Hill House

@@Stubagful great show I agree. If you ever want to watch a good action movie watch The Raid. It's so good im telling you

I’m not sure about showrunner but she should definitely be brought back

I do kill a puppy at 3:52 so that's probably it

@@Stubagful Ah, my younger self was so naive! :)

Well the Doctor was never there in any of the other big Torchwood crises and yet Jack wasn’t mad at them for not helping then. If Jack had a space time telegraph like UNIT has and tried to call the Doctor with it but received no response then he’d definitely be mad though
