Pretty good episode. The Saudis were not messing around. I did not expect the brother to be gay and in love with a dissident (or he may not have been) instead of being a dissident himself. What a sad ending for him though. His resolution meant he was free to live in the West but could never go home or see his family again, at least his sister and his mom, because his dad chose the Kingdom over him Glad to see Delilah lose her nerve about going to a concert and prepare to tell her mom the truth. Glad to see that detective new on rounding up Robyn get sideswiped given his smugness

I think that’s supposed to be Annabel Scholey. If so, she’s in the Weeping Angels episode BBC America is calling it a global premiere event similar to how they described the Series 11 premiere. If they do the same thing now that they did then, they will show it at the same time as the UK adjusted for time differences and then repeat in its regular timeslot. BBC America also showed a shortened version of the trailer at least once tonight (Friday)

Per TVZoneUK, the BBC released 10 new images https://www.tvzoneuk.com/post/dwflux-firstlookpics-15oct

Series 13 trailer #2. Discussion in Series 13 thread

New trailer Fantastic!

Maybe because they know they aren't welcome? Maybe if they smelled better...

Note that the show taped yesterday

Reminder to UK viewers that Jodie Whittaker is on Graham Norton tonight. For US viewers, BBC America will show Jodie’s episode next Friday Note that the 2nd full trailer for Series 13 will debut today, probably sometime this evening

I liked the youth pastor storyline the best. If he can impress even Sheldon, he’s doing well

Doctor Who Twitter account says trailer tomorrow (Friday). No idea what time, but probably early evening

Yes it was. ABC was actually promoting the night as some kind of Wonder Years theme, with the new Wonder Years show and Fred Savage guesting on The Connors, as well as McKellar guesting here I actually thought it was really touching how Sarah was able to reach that girl

I liked this. I felt really sorry for the misdiagnosed patients

Note that this is labeled as the 4th episode production-wise and in the press release, even though it's the first episode aired. We're going to get some out of order episode numbers for a bit it seems ETA: It seems the press release on the Futon Critic website is not in sync with others so it won’t be changed

Note: This is the 2nd episode aired. It looks like the episodes will be playing out of order for a bit ETA: It appears the source I was using is a little out of sync with other sources

The latest Doctor Who Magazine has exclusive details and pictures on the new season. Showrunner Chris Chibnall wrote 5 episodes and co-wrote one with Maxine Alderton. Cultbox summarizes it https://cultbox.co.uk/news/doctor-who-flux-writers-directors-details-announced

This isn't the article I saw initially that was interviewing Beanie or Monica, but they took 23 days to film this episode, which is an almost unheard of length for a TV episode that's not a pilot https://decider.com/2021/08/20/impeachment-american-crime-story-tca-2021/

I liked this overall but I felt too much time was spent with Esme learning about her power. You just know that kid will be useful in defeating Nyxly
