Doctor Who Episode 8.9 Recap
"Flatline" gets diminishing returns out of the Doctor's moral utilitarianism.
Doctor Who Episode 8.5 Recap
"Time Heist" is a Monet of an episode: good from far away, but a mess as soon as you look closer.
Doctor Who Episode 8.4 Recap
“Listen” addresses some major series issues in perhaps one of the most beautiful Doctor Who episodes yet.
Doctor Who Episode 8.3 Recap

Doctor Who Episode 8.1 Recap
There's a new Doctor in town! Season 8 of Doctor Who kicks off with the dark and slightly confused "Deep Breath."
The Adventures of Tintin Review
It is rare that a film is released in Europe before North America, unless it is a European production. And while The Adventures of Tintin is technically not European, its roots are, and so its release here in the United Kingdom last week was appropriate.
Doctor Who Episode 6.7 Review
Spoiler Warning: "The Rebel Flesh" (6.5) and "The Almost People" (6.6). Also, I wouldn't read any further into this post unless you've watched the entirety of "A Good Man Goes To War" (6.7) right to the very end. I mean to the last second. You've been warned, alright? Spoilers.
Doctor Who Episode 6.5/6.6 Review
I knew going into "The Rebel Flesh" and "The Almost People" that I wasn't going to like these episodes at all. After watching the trailer for this two-parter, the episodes immediately felt like the dismal Silurian two-parter in Series Five - "Cold Blood" and "The Hungry Earth".

With Steven Spielberg directing, Peter Jackson producing, Edgar Wright, Steven Moffat & Joe Cornish writing, and Jamie Bell, Nick Frost and Simon Pegg (among others) acting, I have high hopes for this film.
Doctor Who Episode 6.1 Review
In the previous series, Steven Moffat hit the ground running, creating one of the most entertaining collections of episodes in Doctor Who history. With the eleventh incarnation of The Doctor garnering an impressive amount of critical praise and fan approval, its understandable that Moffat's sophomore effort is one of the most highly-anticipated television shows of the year.
Doctor Who in Review
When the BBC announced five years or more ago that they would be remounting the classic Doctor Who series, I was both thrilled and scared. I was raised on British television, and Doctor Who was always my favourite. While it has its ups and downs, I longed to be the Doctor (never the companion – […]
