SDCC 2024: Strange New Adventures in Time and Space?
Two powerhouse creators come together to launch an Intergalactic Day of Friendship at Comic-Con, but is there something more happening?
The 12th Doctor
Flashback Friday: Preparing For Peter Capaldi
Back in 2013, we didn’t know how great the 12th Doctor would be. Well, we should have suspected, but when internet comedian Sam Bowers asked […]
Doctor Who: “The Doctor Falls”
There’s so much happening here, and so little. We could talk about the eerie use of proto-Cyberman corpses as scarecrows. We could talk about how […]
Doctor Who: “World Enough and Time”
Let’s cut to the chase: this is the best episode of Doctor Who since at least “Dark Water,” whose plot it resembles in numerous ways […]
Doctor Who: “The Eaters of Light”
Given the harmonious relationship between classic Who and new Who — a distinction with less and less meaning every year — it seems unbelievable that […]
Doctor Who: ‘Empress Of Mars’
I’ve always had a soft spot for the Sontarans. Invented by Robert Holmes, one of the most revered classic series writers, they were intelligent, articulate […]
Doctor Who: ‘The Lie Of The Land’
At this point it really does feel as though the Monks have always been here, so I’m looking forward to something new next week, even […]

The question on my mind about the Peter Harness episode of Series 10 was: would this be more like “Kill the Moon” or “The Zygon […]

I was going to put a spoiler warning at the top of this, even though I usually don’t, because it seemed like an episode where […]
Doctor Who: ‘Oxygen’
I’ve never been that great at figuring stories out ahead of time. I’m pretty sure I had no idea whose father Darth Vader would turn […]
Doctor Who: ‘Knock Knock’
Doctor Who is usually considered to be science fiction, largely due to the framing device of time-and-spaceships from another planet, but even though most stories […]
Doctor Who: ‘Smile’
On a planet far out in space, a human colony has been established on which to be unhappy is punishable by death. The basis of […]
Doctor Who: ‘The Pilot’
In a dusty hallway of an English university is a room, and inside the room is a professor. The professor is a man who’s had […]
Gallifrey One 2017: Cosplay
One of the high points of any convention is the cosplay. When you get to a con with a specific focus, it refines the cosplay […]
Doctor Who:
The Return Of Doctor Mysterio
My hot take was that it wasn’t my least favorite Christmas special, but I’m having trouble coming up with the one it beats. Maybe “The […]
