@redlemons Welcome! I understand your feelings on Capaldi as the Doctor.  I liked him in the 8th season, but he was not a favorite, partially due to the writing in some of the middle episodes. with the exception of ‘Listen’.  He was making my favorite list after ‘Magician’s Apprentice’ and was on his way to the top by mid-season. It was ‘Heaven S…[Read more]

@juniperfish Your insights into this episode are incredible.  Honestly for now I am just going to agree with you completely; headcanon accepted.  (:

@thane15

Yes, will see you at the pub, glad your mom has found some new meds, excellent news.

The music was intense, and extremely well-done as usual.  Murray Gold always inspires me to choreograph.  (:

Yes, @wolfweed ‘s observations were very keen.  Didn’t Shakespeare say that there were only seven stories in the world?  Not surprised this epi…[Read more]

Thank you @thane15 I enjoyed your review.  (:

@missy I’m not sure if I can answer if I liked it in general, what I can say is that I appreciated aspects and didn’t like it at the same time.

Yes, I appreciated the depth of the episode and the “psychotherapy” and the risks it took.  On the other hand, it really did tax my adrenal glands, and I’m a…[Read more]

@thane15

HELLO!  How are you?  Sorry to hear your mom is doing poorly, sending healing love your family’s way.

YES!  I heard all of those too, and it really got my head spinning, like when I heard old Who music in ‘Heaven Sent’ or a touch of River in certain episodes.  Always fun to pick out the musical themes.  The music was wonderful as usua…[Read more]

This was a wonderful intro to season 10.  Adore Bill, but how could a person not adore Bill?  She’s original and absolutely endearing.  Agree with @jimthefish and @nerys that this has a wonderful introduction to a companion and I enjoy the sense of whimsy, humor and wonder infused back into the show.

@MissRori, @mudlark @juniperfish @phaseshift @pedant @miapatrick @jimthefish Agree, agree, agree.

Peter Capaldi has been my favorite Doctor since season 9 (not feeling it in season 8, plus still loyal to Doctor 11) but this episode reminded me why he is…[Read more]

Haven’t been on here in awhile, so I am posting a long overdue: WTF?

Yes, just that.  Sorry for the brevity and swearing in this acronym, but seriously, I don’t know what else to say, except that the episode taxed my adrenal glands.

More of a vent than a theory or observation.

@MissRori

I’d like to read that poem. (:

Okay, for various reasons tonight I’m back on my extra crazy theories regarding ‘Listen’ but can’t get into all of them without spoilers for the new season.

Since you asked in the lead into this forum, yes, I liked Adric.  It seems very popular not to like him, but I liked him and felt he was very heroic and tragic.

@kbranagh I also enjoyed it.  I liked the characters and the love story was very cute.

My least favorite part was the constant brain hinge, and me wondering why no villain ever just shoots the doctor once the gun is aimed?

Like @missy my favorite part was the Doctor; I think Peter Capaldi is brilliant.   Also, I really liked Nardole.  (: I th…[Read more]

@missy I wouldn’t wait too long, or someone is bound to accidentally throw a spoiler your way.   (:

Can we open a discussion for the latest Sherlock @Craig ?

Thanks, Kharis

Have you all seen this?  Madame Koverian reading a bedtime Christmas story:

It’s adorable, my kids and I just loved it. I forgot how nice it is to sit around and listen to a fireside Christmas story together. The story and reader were excellent. (:

I agree with @theconsultingdoctor and think the media (as usual) took it out of context.  Naturally, I would love to see Matt Smith return, he brings so much joy, humour, intelligence, whimsy and heart to the show how could I not?  On the other hand, it’s too good to be true, which I never trust, plus I refuse to get my hopes up.  Another pr…[Read more]

@jimthefish @ichabod I really enjoyed reading your political posts.

@ichabod comment #52947 is brilliant.  You should submit an article with your thoughts in a newspaper or political magazine.
