Kinda baffled to see all the hatred there... I personally loved it. Making God an asshole was ballsy and very welcome... but in the same time, you have to put it into perspective : he's a writer, I am a writer, and we all know us writers like to make our characters suffer. Any fictional character would love to tear a new asshole to his creator, so it's legit and offers some philosophical ramifications I'm really curious to see them tackle next year.

Okay, so... I often criticize Vikings, but man, that scene of Floki finding the cross. I had the exact same reaction as Floki at the same time... the exact same crazy giggle. Alright, Hirst, I'll give you that one, that was freaking hilarious !

Okay so everyone is bitching about the Iceland storyline but isnt it obvious to all that it's gonna end up in Greenland then America ? And I'm looking forward to that ! And speaking of far-travels, I feel like Hvitserk is gonna end up in the Far-East and that can be really good !

This show is so consistently jumping the shark it's become a comedy with some beautiful shots here and there.

I dunno why but I've always liked Heaven storylines, I think they offer a lot of opportunities, and I did like this one as well !

A minute of silence for poor Hvitserk losing his only story arc.

Okay... so I just watched episode 9 and I kinda needed a place to go... Wish we had episode topics, at least for the last three, as I dont wanna venture this thread too long until I've watched 10. But... man... that ending. :(

Waw, really surprised at how many people were taken out by the frog. Guys...guys... a sentient universe took the form of a frog... how more awesome do you want it to be ? That was magnificent and Doctor Who at its finest !

Well, I came here expecting (finally) a consensus on this one being the best episode of the series, as I totally loved it, but apparently it's not the case. Well... as I said, I loved it.

Namaste.

I reaaaally liked that episode ! Dont know if that will be the consensus (reading around it seems it is) or not but the Nora - Ava - Mona scenes were the highlight for me ! C'mon Mona, deliver that letter !

Okay that wasnt perfect, it had flawed (pacing issues I mostly blame on schedule and budget). But damn, it was good. Yeah, the ending was rushed and campy (but we love Doctor Who for the occasional campiness right ?), but otherwise, the scenery, the characters, the acting, the themes... I truly believe this will remain a memorable episode of the series.

I liked that one. But man, I have no idea what to say about it. Probably because I've been reading and watching reactions already since the credits rolled, but yeah... I truly liked it but I really dont know how to elaborate ! :D

I'm at episode 3. So far so good... I mean, it's not groundbreaking sci-fi (though it's just the beginning) but it hits all the notes I like from a story, it's everything that works on me, so...

I'm really curious to see the overall reaction on this one. I think it can be quite dividing. Personally I really enjoyed it. A few slow scenes here and there, some rough editing sometimes, a few over the top moments, but overall nothing too dramatic and the general storyline, the emotions the episode wanted to convey was more or less on point. Beautiful cinematography though, and really liked those new aliens and the twist on them ! I would be really curious to explore more of their culture so kuddos to the writer for that ! But I could understand why some will find it over the top at some point ! And I really wish we had a scene where the Tardis team explains who they are to Umbreen and asking her to keep it secret all these years, and then, at the end, we could have had a powerful scene where Yaz and her nanny finally share a strong moment... but it wasnt, and now we have to assume Umbreen just didnt recognize the similarity between her granddaughter and the strange woman at her wedding... Though speaking of strange women, I wonder if she'd remember the Doctor...

Wouldnt it have made more sense for everything the djinn does to be a mind trick, an illusion, rather than really have Bobby miraculously recover from such an impossible-to-survive wound ?

I completely lost it when they summoned Satan and spent the rest of the episode laughing my ass off, that was hilarious and amazing ! The whole episode was awesome (A school shooting in an ice cream shop ?). Really loved the plot lines and the points made, but damn, those last minutes with Satan, I was dead laughing ! Damn, didnt expect all those returns, looking forward to next week !

As many other, I did overall enjoy the episode, but it's clearly not gonna be a very memorable one. I just wanted to point out one point I liked : that whole neuropiloting and the disease that comes with it. I found that to be a very interesting concept and storyline. Not revolutionary but it's a theme I'd be interested in seing more !

Ryan making shadow-puppets. Enough said.

Really liked it ! Didnt expect it but the Jack - Cas scenes were the highlight of the episode for me. I really look forward to see Jack's evolution as a character, and I wish for an exciting arc for Cas this year ! As for Plot A, I really enjoyed it, quite curious to see what Kira (or her evil sleepwalking twin) will bring to the plot and if we'll see some more of the (sadlynottohavetheirownshow) Wayward Sisters ! And found Dean's confession at the end quite powerful, and good ol' classic but never disapointing Winchester Bonding Moment !

Yeah I guess we'll see him again. So... first impressions, still hot so it's what it's worth. Overall really enjoyed the episode, the character dynamics, the tone and mostly the weight of it all... so it's a win for me. I'd nitpick over the music during the final scene, would have preferred something more sober, but music's always subjective. And still, the baddies are definitly not the forte of the series so far for me, found Handsome-Ex-Convict kinda bland and one-dimensional. I hope we'll get more high sci-fi concepts and antagonists as the series unfolds, cause so far that's what I miss. But otherwise, I really liked the episode. Truly.

Kinda found the editing and pacing leaving a bit to be desired in that episode, and the evil-sheets giving us all that exposition felt a bit heavy-handed. Otherwise great episode and yeah, sure, it's an obvious step the series has to beat, but discovering the TARDIS alongside the Doctor stole a tear from me, I must admit, it was really beautifully done !

Oh my god they killed Stan ! Curious to see how much serialized this season will be... Kinda wondering as well what type of Cartman we'll get as the season unfolds. I somehow enjoyed seing a more vulnerable part of him with Heidi, but would be pretty nice to have him more balanced towards his typical older self !

Until the very end, I was convinced this was the series finale... And I found it ballsy to end the series on such a note... but apparently, there will be another season, so looking forward to see how it will all end !

Wooow, the kid-actor playing young Tak is good ! Damn good ! That's a rare thing for kids !
