    I’m just curious…is there any interest in discussing DW episodes in a startrek.website community?

      I’m down, I’m super excited for the new series and who knows when Prodigy will air

      Oh boy, I cannot get behind that Capaldi slander.

      The Chibnall/Whittaker era…I don’t think they’re are many people who would say it’s their favourite, but there were at least a few pretty good installments in there.

        I don’t know how you could get past Capaldi’s first series and not see what an incredible Doctor he is.

        I tried so hard to like things in the Chibnall era –– I was so excited when Whittaker was cast and I think she did the best she could – but after reading Elizabeth Sandifer’s evisceration of the Chibnall ethos in her piece on Kerblam! (which I think also applies to ENT, tbh) I think I’ve come to terms with the fact that I’m not really going to get there.

          At the same time, “Demons of the Punjab” is probably a top 10 episode for me, I really love it.

          “It Takes You Away” is delightfully weird, the New Years specials are generally pretty solid, “Fugitive of the Judoon” is pretty good even though the greater arc-stuff is not, and I have good memories of “The Haunting of Villa Diodati” and “Can You Hear Me?” even though I haven’t revisited them since the first run.
