“I CAN SHOW YOU THE WORLD…” Doc’s been getting a bit squirmy, running off to do personal stuff and leaving the companions behind. If they’re your best friends, maybe tell them about yourself. That’s what friends do.
If I continue two a day, I’ll be done my Doctor Who rewatch at the end of the week. Oh, I remember this episode. It was one of the environmental ones that were hitting the audience over the head with a baguette. Did she just say a talking cat in Ontario? Is it Moki? This episode is boring. Running on sand is the worst. The Doctor should know not to park there.
I don’t love the Judoon, though I do quite their first appearance. Well, something’s going to go wrong with this couple. And enter the Doctor and friends. Creepy bartender creeping. Oh yeah, Captain Jack! I like him thinking that Graham is the Doctor. Jack being giddy when he finds out the Doctor is a woman is great. Three of you? I had a dream about this once. Captain Jack about the the Doctor’s companions I’m bored by the A story. It’s okay, but all the stories are a bit meh, and one is fun with Captain Jack. Oh, I forgot that she’s the Doctor. Ahh, rewriting the entire Doctor Who… Read More »Doctor Who Story 291 – Fugitive of the Judoon
Good moustache, glowing eyes guy. So many great moustaches. It’s the guy from Hustle. Whose brother is Gene Hunt. Is that the spider lady from “Runaway Bride?” Apparently the spider is Anjli Mohindra who played Rani in Sarah Jane. Oh, she’s not the same species as the Spiders from Mars. The baddie is a Pakled. Rani! Stop being a naughty girl. Sarah Jane would be so pissed.
I think something’s gonna go wrong. Ryan’s infection from the Hopper virus was great. The Doctor needs to stop sexualizing Hyph3n. The baddie looks terrible. Also, poor Hyph3n. Ooo! Mind meld! I forgot how heavy-handed this episode of Doctor Who is. Here’s a hammer, here’s an explanation of global warming, go to town.
Part One Be wery wery qwiet, I’m hunting trucks. Americans are everywhere. Poor Ryan, I know what it feels like to be unable to play sports. Doctor Who writers have a weird obsession with GPS. Oh, it’s Stephen Fry. He’s an asshole. Why is this CEO an asshole? He insults his mates over the intercom? Don’t let the Master loose in your TARDIS. CEO is a bad shot. I love his house as the TARDIS. He’s so good as the Master. Part Two How’d they get out of the airplane? The TARDIS being a house just makes sense. Paris is fun. Saying a pacifist is a bold stance to take… Read More »Doctor Who Story 288 – Spyfall
Oh, we get a teaser this time. Of course the British one fails. Charlotte Ritchie! So much Taskmaster love! Though like Lee Mack, I knew her before from Fresh Meat. Poor Charlotte, with a spider on her back. That’s a Dalek? Why is the black archive available online? Eighty-eight miles an hour!!!!!! The Dalek attacking the cop is fantastic. I. Will. Fight! Charlotte Ritchie The family with no data is amazing. Aww, dad hugs!
Oh look, it’s about Kolos. I don’t remember this episode at all, based on the first 30 seconds. Okay, I did see it, but it wasn’t memorable. Graham, you’re better than revenge. Why did Ryan never call him “Grahamdad?” Tim Shaw is too boring of a bad guy. I like the Doctor calling her TARDIS a “ghost monument.”
Eating soil? Who does she think she is? Constable Benton Frasier? Don’t call her “sweetheart,” Yas! I remember liking this episode. I don’t like Ryan in this episode. Aww Ryan, now I’m happy with you, calling Graham “granddad.” <3
Witches! Who is the one running the witch trial. Oh, she was in Happy Valley. That show was both amazing and brutally horrible. Apparently Alan Cumming is in this episode, too. They’ve had tons of celebs during Whittaker’s first season. If those two and all the Taskmaster contestants are celebs. I want Alan Cumming as king. Alan Cumming is playing him queer, over the top queer. Apparently it’s theorized he was according to wikipedia. The Doctor is kind of a witch. This story is horrible, but Alan Cumming is great in it. “It’s a very flat team structure.” I really like that. I really wish Doctor Who was that before… Read More »Doctor Who Story 284 – The Witchfinders
