Toby Jones is heading down the road of David Warner in that he’s game for almost anything, and absolutely uplifts the material, whatever it is, far more than it deserves. And it’s all absolutely great. If you haven’t seen it, I highly recommend his starring turn in horror/thriller film Berberian Sound Studio.

Weirdly enough, I remember the Sherlock episode being billed as the "Jimmy Saville" episode, so I felt weirdly relieved when it turned out that Jones was just a serial killer. Also, Sherlock season 4's finale was so bad it took me a while to process that it was really happening. The Moffat giveth, the Moffat taketh.

Every time one of you wankers mentions the Dream Lord I have to go watch that opening TARDIS scene again where he just roasts the Doctor and this time all the rest of you have to do it as well, it's the law https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WbCJFG18V20  "...I'm surprised you haven't got a little purple space dog, just to ram home what an intergalactic wag you are"

Toby Jones? More like Toby Jowns. He has been the best part of everything I've seen him in. I quite liked Detectorists but I have to admit that I refused to watch a second season because I felt that the story was complete after the first.

I finally got around to watching the season finale. It wasn't good. Some fun moments, but overall it felt insanely rushed (when it was getting close to the end I was convinced we'd end the season on the Doctor escaping, because there's NO WAY they'd just resolve everything else in 5 minutes, right? Wrong!), the huge revelations just watered down the Doctor for me (I don't like it when the Doctor is some special cosmic chosen one destined for greatness, I like it when the Doctor is a scrappy adventurer with a can-do spirit and strong desire to do good), and the ending could not have screamed "the Master and some of the Cyberman Timelords survived". And honestly when you're trying to build up tension over the Doctor blowing up a "death particle" bomb, what the hell are you even doing? Did anyone seriously think for a moment that boop, the Doctor's going to just erase herself from the universe? Or was it possibly obvious from the word go that the new character created for the finale would do it instead? Urgh. God drat it all anyway. E: and I realize that getting into a show requires suspension of disbelief, but normally the tension is "ooh, how will the Doctor get out of this one!" or "ooh, will the Doctor's companions survive this?", or "ooh, what trickier predicament will the Doctor end up in as a result of this?". But when the scenario is "the Doctor has a suicide bomb that destroys all biological life on the planet, but it will kill the Doctor as well. WILL SHE DIE?!" then you'd have to be the World Champion of Suspension of Disbelief to really get any tension out of it. Shaman Tank Spec fucked around with this message at 19:10 on Jul 15, 2020 |

I just finished rewatching the entire show with a friend who hadn't watched everything before. Smith was her only Doctor, which is great but man, did she enjoy his years even more after all the context of the previous seasons! the last episode I watched previously was "Resolution" and I missed the latest season, though I really love Whittaker. Rewatching season 11 put me to sleep more than any previous season, it was difficult for me to get through. The longer format and super dramatic style really killed the show for me. Season 12 was a little better in spots, but by the end of it, we were happy to be through with Who. It was such a slog with a few fun points and overall I'm quite mad about Chibnall doing this to Whittaker. I laughed fairly hard at the finale which really sucked a lot of the magic out of the show... by injecting too much magic into it I guess. I also really wanted to like Sacha Dhawan as the Master, but he seemed to have all the crazy and angst with none of the fun. Though it's incredibly difficult to hold a candle next to Gomez, and the show did her dirty. Just some passing thoughts on Doctor Who from a goon and his friend.

I've finished the telesnaps for the Troughton years now after watching The Space Pirates last night. I... didn't completely hate it? I didn't have much knowledge about the actual plot going in, but from what I've heard about it I was expecting it to be probably the worst story of his tenure. It definitely wasn't great; the first few episodes were slow and excessively heavy on expository dialogue, it had some terrible choices in costumes and character concepts, but it mostly just seemed kind of mediocre to me. It's not even my least favourite story of Season 6, I'd put it above The Krotons and probably above The Dominators too. Damning it with faint praise there, but I was expecting a total trainwreck and was really surprised that I came away thinking it was just meh.

That’s why I voted for that in the poll - I’m positive you can make it look good with an animated reconstruction.
