Doctor Who “Face the Raven” – Review
Face the Raven? I’ll launch the thing with the whole bells and whistles like it was the QE2; I’ve been waiting for this day for a long time. I hope you feel lucky that this is written and has an editor look…

Ncuti Gatwa Is The 14th Doctor
Ncuti Gatwa (pronounced Shoo-ti Gat-wah) was announced Sunday morning as the 14th Doctor. The announcement was made via a small bit of teasing by returning Russell T Davies, Ncuti himself, and former Doctor Who stars such as Georgia Tennant via social channels. The post featuring two…
Doctor Who “Sleep No More” – Review
Sleep no more? I can hardly keep my eyes open at another base-under-siege story Mark. I’ll thank you for offering up the most boring horror-bent on my birthday, or at least it was at the weekend when I typically watch these. Regardless…
Doctor Who “The Zygon Invasion” & “The Zygon Inversion” – Review
No more, please, no more. As much as I love and cherish sections of the story of “The Zygon Invasion” & “The Zygon Inversion,” I can’t take any more of the Zygon stories. Knowing my luck, by the time this is out…
Doctor Who “Legend of the Sea Devils” – Review

Doctor Who “Under the Lake” & “Before the Flood” – Review
Another double-bill, another base-under-siege, and another episode with non-corporeal beings of a victorian bent. Series 9 of Doctor Who is kicking off with my favorite things. It is not opposite day today, you say? Oh well, back to hating another story that makes me…
Doctor Who “The Magician’s Apprentice” & “The Witch’s Familiar” – Review
Warning: The following article may contain language unsuitable for some readers. Reader’s discretion is advised. To continue on my misanthropy of last week: Steven, everyone loves when you climb up yourself for the sake of nostalgia, bringing back all the different designs…
Doctor Who “Last Christmas” – Review
I’m not even in the mood to make the music reference, and I think that’s the sign of how poorly I think of Steven Moffat’s fourth from last Christmas special. Sure, we’ve got Frosty-Claus and I do love a bit of Nick…
