Getting a blind Norwegian kid to play a blind Norwegian kid, that's genius, and I'm not sarcastic.

2024-07-11 02:58:29 +0000 UTCI agree! He had no issue with Missy but felt that Who was "pandering" by making the Doctor a woman. 🙄 I was genuinely confused how a life long fan who's seen every episode, read stories, wrote stories and collects everything Who could just refuse to even watch because of a casting choice. I haven't spoken to him about storylines so I can only imagine how he TC had him feeling. Lol

2022-08-01 00:51:58 +0000 UTCAs someone who has also been a fan of Doctor Who from the beginning (i started watching in 1974 and have seen every story from Hartnell to Jodie) i'm appalled by this attitude. I had no problem with the Doctor regenerating into a woman as it was set up during a brief scene in the Pertwee era which intrigued me to the point i was eagerly awaiting the time when they would become a woman, especially when the Time Lord ability to change gender was confirmed in the Moffat-era with the Corsair and the General. Personally, i have no problem with the writing; it's no better or worse than any previous era.

2022-07-31 19:19:10 +0000 UTCOh he's a fine character/antagonist in his own right, no doubt. I wish he'd been in an episode where he was relevant. This is what I always feel about the Chibnall era: lots of great pieces, but that don't fit together into a cohesive whole. Like the parts of two different really cool Lego models crammed together into one. But that's just my own taste; as someone once said, "That's why they make ice cream in chocolate AND vanilla."

2022-07-17 01:23:21 +0000 UTCI loved Ribbons, creepy as hell, he and the antizone were like something out of Pans Labyrinth, do great to see on Who. I didn't see it as padding. You could argue that if Ribbons had reached the antizone sooner, he may have even deterred Erik from even getting across. Instead, has presence just acted as a buffer/warning to all future people trying to crossover - a dose of reality to stop people making a mistake.

2022-07-16 21:46:06 +0000 UTCP.s., time for me to come clean on my thoughts of the series. My top episodes were: Demons, Rosa, this one, Kerblam, Witchfinder and Ep1. The other episodes were ok but a clear "b grade" compared to these. So, in other words, the real good episodes had half or no writing from Chris at all (except ep1), very unusual for the show runner to be the weaker writing contributor. Jodies' best moments for her were in these non chibs episodes too, her confronting Krasko, her getting excited by the Kerblam man, her directly engaging with the Solitract, her confronting the King in Witchfinders etc. Real depth and we got a sense of her character. Chibs gave us a really good scene when she described regeneration and her new sonic, but nothing more, imho. Instead the focus was more on great moments from Bradley Walsh and a few mcguffin explaining by Yas and Ryan. We also only got very few episodes which made me feel cheated from seeing anything more with Jodie, not just the fact we had such long gaps before and after this season. Just my opinion.

2022-07-16 21:44:52 +0000 UTCBeautiful episode, this was No. 3 of the season. The "frog" made my head go wonky at the time, but I loved the Doctor and Graham in this as well as the craziness of the 'other world' characters was great too. So sorry this got you more second time round Kat (!)

2022-07-16 06:46:13 +0000 UTCWell, for me, the way the writing let things down is: what was Ribbons doing in the episode? Other than trying to pad out the runtime? He wasn't relevant to the drama of the episode, which was brilliant and would have been better without the distraction of this unexplained and early-dismissed peripheral antagonist. The scary passage full of monsters (flesh moths as the monster of the week is another great concept) would have filled the purpose the story needed while leaving more time to more deeply explore the drama that the episode was really about. But I loved the frog. The Solitract had to look like something, so why not that? (It was actually properly set up with Grace's frog necklace earlier.)

2022-07-16 05:10:46 +0000 UTCI think you've hit the problem folks had with the writing. The tone is so very different from the last 3 Doctors and we all know how popular they were especially Tenant. I enjoy Jodie but I think the shorter seasons were a bigger problem. Every new Doctor takes some getting used to for the fans. I feel like the pattern is 1st season or 1/2 season everyone's finding their footing. Writers, actors and fans alike. 2nd season it settles and we've got a Doctor we have come to enjoy and understand. 3rd season fans are at the height of acceptance and love just in time to be devastated by the regeneration and we start back at zero with missing the last Doctor. Jodie not only had to contend with the normal emotional cycle, she had to do it in the face of parts of the fandom opposed to a woman in the role. 😡 My friend, who wrote his own Who stories that we filmed years ago, is a lifelong from Hartnell era Whovian. He was so angry they had the Doctor regenerate as a woman he hasn't watched one episode. He's kept up with the fandom and the info so he's felt justified (future stories) in his opinion that Chibnall and Jodie ruined Who. Just boggles my mind.
Alisa Loudner
2022-07-15 14:40:51 +0000 UTCCant argue with you. SPOILER WARNING: The idea of the Doctor waiting for someone to come & rescue her? No! Never! She would have had the prisoners, the guards & then the warden in her power inside a week - two if it was a long episode.
Mark Ten
2022-07-15 11:47:27 +0000 UTCThats very much a Hitchikers Guide type of line (Zaphod & Ford are semi-cousins who share 3 of the same mothers). There have been several stories & books (non-canon) during the 7th Doctor era that new Timelords are no longer born, they are crafted on "The Loom Of Rassilon".
Mark Ten
2022-07-15 11:43:39 +0000 UTCyes. there is also the fact that he was the only one who knew his way around the antizone, but once he died it stopped being a problem.

2022-07-15 08:33:46 +0000 UTCYay!! So happy you're enjoying this adventure! We're so happy to have you here! (And thank you Malcolm for sharing the po box!)

2022-07-15 06:40:54 +0000 UTCYeah, that was an...odd line? Maybe a plural marriage sort of thing? ;)
Nicole Mazza
2022-07-15 04:04:57 +0000 UTCYeah, pretty sure her final/regeneration episode is the BBC Centenary episode later this year (though, I believe that RTD -- who's been promoting it more than Chibnall *facepalm* -- said it's going to be like 90 minutes or so, so it might me the length of about 2 episodes). But yeah, not sure if she's coming back for the 60th Doctor Who anniversary story in November of 2023. In the past, a Doctor who'd just left usually wasn't in that story, but you never know...

2022-07-15 00:05:42 +0000 UTCI absolutely love your reactions they are so amazing! I’d love to send you some fan mail with Doctor Who goodies, how can I do that? I absolutely love the Frog, I think that it’s Doctor Who in its purest form. Silly, bonkers, & out of this universe. I love it when the show just lets go of what is normal & does absolutely weird things.

2022-07-14 22:56:20 +0000 UTCLoved these reactions and commentary <3 As always, thanks :) You're both huge dorks and I love it.

2022-07-14 20:59:23 +0000 UTCThe writing letting her down? I give you... the entirely of series13. Also the Doctor enabling and condoning violent genocide in series12. Series 11 was excellent.
Bill
2022-07-14 20:52:48 +0000 UTCSo, there's definitely a segment of the viewing public that dislikes this episode because of the frog. I do not belong to that segment. The frog itself did not bother me one bit, and in fact I rather like it. In fact, I really like everything that happens in our own universe, and in the Solitract universe. What I didn't like in this episode is the antizone. Not because Ribbons is creepy, though he is. But because it's just random padding, and it doesn't connect to the rest of the episode thematically at all. To me it felt like the writers had a story about grief and lonliness and the bad decisions people make because of them, but they couldn't make it fit the runtime, so they found an unrelated idea and just stuck it in the middle.

2022-07-14 20:52:32 +0000 UTCI mean, it generated a whole Norweigian back yard, complete with a pond. There might have been frogs there.

2022-07-14 20:40:56 +0000 UTCEvery time I watch this episode I think ‘this is ok’ and then the frog happens…

2022-07-14 20:25:37 +0000 UTCAm I the only one who wonder if some of the doctor's seven grannies were different regenerations of the same granny?

2022-07-14 18:49:37 +0000 UTCDemons of the Punjab is the best episode of the season. But this one has always been my favorite.
Eric
2022-07-14 18:23:42 +0000 UTCIt's not a real frog! The entity has never seen a real frog! Only a frog necklace! That's a pretty good frog considering it only had a necklace to work from.

2022-07-14 18:21:34 +0000 UTCBTW, Erik's shirt is backwards, but so is the Doctor's hair. :)
Nicole Mazza
2022-07-14 18:21:31 +0000 UTCI really love this episode. This or Demons of Punjab are my #1 episode of this season. This episode also gave me big Douglas Adams vibes.

Mark Ten
2022-07-14 18:11:19 +0000 UTCThe Solitract speech. The moment I realized how much 13 meant to me. It sounded so much like a regeneration speech and there she was trying to provide comfort; explain that it was ok. I got so scared, I didn't want her to go, I started to cry. She's been my Doctor ever since. Plus, that moment between Ryan and Graham never fails to make me smile. Love, Yaz,s personality, she's always one of the first to step up or go that extra mile for a friend. Her sticking up for Graham (and Grace) against the Solitract is always a favorite moment for me. Love this episode!

2022-07-14 17:56:49 +0000 UTCCan't wait for this one, as it's the one episode I REALLY LOVE from this era of Doctor Who. Tonally it just reminds me of 'Sapphire and Steel' and I just love how surreal it is. I know most people hate the frog, but it works for me in a way that I don't understand and so it's the only episode that I willingly rewatch from this season, personally. <3
Nicole Mazza
2022-07-14 17:43:59 +0000 UTCOk, I love this season, but this one was distinctly…odd.
