Just watched it. Bombast, Doctor being clever, season-long mystery, imaginative aliens... We've started out Moffat as all heck and I am here for it. If they play Thirteen's theme music when she does something clever, it'll be perfect.

Now that you mention it, it is profoundly strange that the show did a GIGANTIC shake-up to the status quo, didn't deal with it in its immediate follow-up because the special wanted to be about something else, which is fine, but then it's just been dropped completely. I thought we'd have to wait until Rusty came back for The Timeless Children to be memory holed, but alright I guess I'll go with it.

I suppose I should forgive myself for not remembering all the details of The Timeless Children considering I watched it so long ago back in last night.

The timeliness child is Dan, who is The Doctor from a past or future regeneration. Mostly because I get Tennant's John Smith vibes off him sometimes. Not because I think it's a good idea or even likely to happen.

If you were to ask me to describe in detail what happened in Flux, I couldn't even begin. This is true of most of Chibnall's run.

Sydney Bottocks posted:Hot take here, but as far as I'm concerned the first incarnation of the Doctor is the Hartnell Doctor: an old man who fled Gallifrey with his granddaughter Susan for [reasons]. To me, all the Timeless Child stuff is just Chibnall indulging in the most egregious of "look how important I am" fanwank. I ignore it just like I ignore all the other dumb ideas and continuity errors I don't like from previous showrunners/producers/script editors/writers, while simultaneously embracing the brilliant ideas that I do like. Makes life so much easier that way. It's the Ninja principle, but for canon. When it happens in other franchises I go all crosseyed and it's like somebody's shouting a math problem I can't answer at me non-stop; my brain knows it's supposed to do something, but it just can't manage it.

The_Doctor posted:I’ll never understand why JNT didn’t just hire an American actress. There’s loads living in the UK, working, going through RADA, etc. Though I have little doubt there are Americans with accents who are also citizens over there, which just brings us back to the original question.

I go back and forth on this, but sometimes it feels like "sex pest" is too cutesy a euphemism for what these people do.
