"w/c" means Week Commencing. So their Centenary celebrations will start on Saturday October 22. Which seems about a week late, but maybe the Queen's passing pushed things back a little. There is no BBC schedule yet for anything after the 21st

Longfellow was really funny in his WU bit, as was WU in general. I liked both the cold open and the monologue and thought the cold open was pretty funny

October 19, barring preemptions

Another supposed line from the Power of the Doctor synopsis

Though I wasn’t entirely sure I would like this coming in to it, I did like it. I like Marcia and Skylar as actors and I liked their characters. In spite of Todd’s messy life, Skylar makes him charming and likable. I plan to stick with this though I don’t think it will last long with its low ratings. Though given the overall poor ratings environment, I’m unsure if CBS will pull it early or just not renew it. I thought it was 30 minutes for some reason

I’m only 4 minutes in and it’s already 1000x better without the live audience

Selena is scary. A very calm mob boss but willing to use violence and who helps someone in order to suck them into her web later

I was going to comment that it’s weird we haven’t seen anything of Diane in recovery, but she’s apparently still in surgery. Just how long has she been in surgery? It seems like more than a day

POV Shorts new season lineup premiering Nov 7 https://variety.com/2022/tv/news/pov-shorts-fifth-season-lineup-1235384909/ The season will consist of 11 short docs packaged into 6 half hour episodes

I haven't watched the full doc series yet, but I cheated and watched the last few minutes of the 4th episode that was a wrapup of the various people involved and how things went with Iran. What I found sad was that the revolution, at least for the Iranians, held such promise of change, but Khomeini turned out to be just as repressive of the Shah and the Iranians have had to endure 40+ years of further repression. I think many of them want better relations with the US, but the regime won't let that happen. It was also interesting to hear from some of the students now, where some still support the regime and others changed and went against it

TVZone UK being cryptic. Fans believe it to be about Doctor Who since that looks like Jodie. Some fans believe they've figured out the code to say "Why is a Dalek trying to contact the Doctor?", which may be part of the (as yet unrevealed) full synopsis This makes me wonder if maybe the Doctor Who Twitter account should have been teasing this since they did some things with Flux

Given all the problems with supply chain issue for real, I appreciated that it was a story point

It was renewed through Season 7 with a 3 season pickup. So it has at least one more season after this

I guess because the producer and/or head writer loves the mob

“TV Zone understands The Power Of The Doctor will air on Sunday 23rd October as part of the BBC's week of centenary celebrations. TV Zone has also obtained the following line from, what is understood to be, the episode synopsis: Who is attacking a bullet train on the edge of a distant galaxy?”

Totally hate Kai at this point. Enjoyed the episode

Maybe that was just a filter to see responses from people over 90 not preventing people from responding before that
