  1. Here what I seemed to notice:

    My view of The Doctor is he is like Sherlock Holmes, a little smarter than the average alien. He uses his brain to figure out what is happening and then stay one or two steps ahead of the bad guy's plan.

    Jodie's Doctor has to have the bad guy's plot Aliensplained to her before she catches on and doesn't seem to come up with clever plots to save the day. (This is how I think she diverges from the other iterations of The Doctor).

    Jodie's Doctor seems to hate violence of any kind and goes out of her way to make sure they don't do any. Ryan's Gran paid a heavy price for her act of vengeance.

    Chibnall's agenda seems to showing us that racial, political, social, religious, etc. hatred is something that should be avoided.

    The Alien's haven't really been that evil, even tooth guy was only doing what he did because that was what his people have always done. Therefore the aliens don't really have to be defeated.

    These episodes are more like The Doctor as a traveler stories, than The Doctor as a warrior stories that have happened in the past seasons. I am sure that when The Doctor and companions go to different planets 99% of the time nothing bad happens. It seems we are getting stories with a mixture of threat levels, not every story is cranked up to 11. If this is the case, I hope they do an alien planet with stunning visuals at some point.

    So, they pull some trickery by having Haley seem reasonable and supportive of Alex at first, only to reveal she's anti-alien too.  Grey is clearly not a color on this show or its characters.

    I don't know why, she seems to rely on Brainy just as much as Alex.

    Maybe I'm being petty, but I just can't get over the ludicrous concept of an alien who can heal all aliens, but can't heal humans. Because somehow their DNA is so completely different from that of dozens, or hundreds, or thousands of other species? Dumb.

    And the fact that he was able to have a child with another human!

    That's different, that was sexual healing!

    Did they say why the alien abandoned his child.

  4. There are too many aliens and too many different types of aliens. We have gone from a world of wondering if there are any aliens, to a world where every alien species there is is living on Earth. Why are there only 2 legged sentient species arriving and why didn't they bring their weird alien pets, exotic alien flora and fauna?

    Even if they can't do that, shouldn't she at least have her own sick time/PTO?  And are people not even allowed to call in sick (even if unpaid) if they suddenly got sick?  What if she had just come down with the flu?  Would he have still made her come to work?

    She may have already used up her sick days giving birth.

    But then evil torture lady was also not sporting subtle eye make-up. I was still trying to figure out if I like her look or not when Zapata rudely put an end to my beauty musings.

    Funny, when I saw a close up of her in the mask, my first thought was she should be wearing an "I Dream of Jeannie" costume.

    I understand Roz's abilities, but Susie's abilities I don't understand at all. Is she really seeing her Aunt Dorothea or is reading the journals getting to her?

    I think Susie must be talking to Dorothea, otherwise she really wouldn't have a super power. Roz has visions and Harvey is a Witch Hunter. They must work together with Sabrina to take down the Dark Lord. My money is on the Dark Lord.

    Bonnie had no problem with Tammy doing the work, and I imagine she would be willing to continue letting Tammy do what she is good at.

    It is LA and as far as I know Tammy doesn't have a car. I don't know how far away everybody lives, but I have never seen anybody try to walk anywhere.

    I was a little sad about Keaton but they said he's in a coma, so there's a possibility he can come back. Actually, now that I think about it, maybe that's so he can explain that Zapata was undercover for the CIA.

    I was thinking the opposite, with Keaton in a coma, there is no one that can confirm that Zapata was working undercover when it is time for her to come back.

    I was thinking the EMP should have fried the electronics in the truck they were driving and the ONSTAR phone that Rich used to try to contact the FBI.

    Glenn is full of shit. When Cheyenne had no leave he suspended her with pay. Which means he has the power and could have done the same for Amy. 

    Expect Amy just got back from a suspension, another so soon might have gotten her fired.

    I liked Tammy in this episode and the solution of her living with Margie is a good one. 

    Except Bonnie is going to have to start doing all the repairs around the complex again. A better solution would have been to get her that apartment that that other girl she helped was living in. I like Marge and Tammy together as well. Tammy needs a real job so that she can pay and hang out at the coffee shop with the rest of the gang.

    We saw how the mirror centaur was meant to torture Tahani (it mirrored back her personality in a negative way).

    Is anyone else disappointed that we didn't get to see how Jason was tortured by Blake the penguin?

    Blake turned his back to the TV while the Jaguars were playing.

    I know it was a throwaway gag but as I actually work at a public library here in the Phoenix, Arizona area, I feel a need to defend... We are actually pretty busy places    with tons of services and events! *End public library PSA here*

  14. A few points:

    The Blossom's show one son, didn't they have two, what was the relationship of that guy who moved in after Clifford died? Wouldn't everybody realized that Clifford and Penelope were brother ans sister and object to them being married, it is a small town.

    I loved FP (Jughead) wearing his coffee can crown.

    Was all the writing that Alice saw in the bathroom an hallucination because nobody could clean that up and make it seem like it wasn't there.

    How did Tripp the police partner end up dead?  I was doing something else while watching, so did I miss something hitting him on the neck?  Or were we just supposed to see the aftermath of him lying there?

    I think he got bopped on the head while being laser focused, training his gun on some people cosplaying the Exorcist. He totally zone out on the fact that he was walking through a Category 5 supernatural tornado.

    Wasn't Buffy set on a Hell mound (mouth????)

    Same with Star City I guess! 

    Yes, a HellMound, surrounded by HellBush.

    Shaun... is right.  ;)

    Agreed, the cups should go on the right of the plates.

    I like the TP to go over the top. I like to smack it just hard enough to unspool the perfect length to toilet paper. It is my gift. I have practiced 3 times a day, 7 days a week for the last 10 years. I would be devastated if I was ever to lose this ability. I could so relate to this episode.

    As a person who has a physical disability, I get a bit stabby when being inaccurately described

    "being a bit stabby" Funny, I would describe that more as a mental disability, rather than a physical disability.

  19. When the doctor said "This is like the iPhone version of CERN" I thought she was saying this is like taking CERN's Large Hadron Collider and shrinking it down to the size of an iPhone while still having the same power.

  20. Since they seemed to have found a way to "tame" the Pting, it might have been better if they took it down to the planet so they could study it so that it would be less hazardous to fellow space travelers.

    Besides that, why would a species evolve to look like a male, an apparently without the proper genitalia to deliver a baby as well, to then need to be physically cut open... iow, perform surgery... in order to birth a child. Makes ZERO sense! lol

    Just because current technology makes performing surgery the more preferable option for giving birth doesn't mean that there isn't some hole that the baby might pop out of naturally if surgery isn't available.

    It wasn't just a random place and time. It was a moment in history that they knew about, in detail, so if anything had happened to derail that moment in history, it would change the personal timeline of the three companions, over-writing the history they'd already lived and thus preventing them from returning safely to their own timeline

    From the previews of the next episode it seems like this very issue was be addressed. This is probably all we should say about it in this thread, since I think we will all have a better understanding of it next week.
