  1. I just read an article on TVline that they originally thought they had 14 episodes to wrap things up, and then told it was only 6. They had to scramble to try and fit it in 6 episodes.
  2. So they are saying an avalanche killed the scientists. I then want to know who planted Annie's tongue where they were living and why. That is what connected their disappearance to Annie's murder.
  3. I would have preferred Rob and Corey, but Greg and John were also my favorites so happy with the outcome!
  4. Did any else think that Kate was going to slap the Doctor as she was approaching him? That look on her face! I loved this episode! Like the others I am so glad we got to keep 14, and he gets to relax with Donna and family! Mel looks great and she fits right in. I love happy endings! 15 looks like he is going to be a lot of fun.
  5. I loved this episode! From the first it felt like Doctor Who again. Loved the opening credits! On another forum someone wrote how good it would have been if RTD or Moffat had written for Jodie. Especially minus the Timeless Child nonsense, except for Doctor Ruth. We have to keep Doctor Ruth somehow! All the humor, banter and heartfelt stuff that I always enjoyed about this show is back. Under Chibnall it felt like I was watching a different show with the same name a lot of the time. Everything about this episode was wonderful. Except for the shootout. I could do without watching shootouts, unless they are space shootouts.
  6. Concerning companions dying. Adric did die with no last minute save. I remember watching that episode with no concern for his safety, and then BOOM. Ship explodes with Adric on it, the Doctor explains he can't go back and save him. I was so shocked as I didn't think they would actually kill a companion, and I really liked Adric! I don't think they ever resurrected or saved him. Not on the episodes I watched anyway.
  7. Yes, he wanted Loki to kill Sylvie so she wouldn't kill him, but why not stop her himself? As Loki said to him, "Why are you not fighting back?" I am sure HWR had the power to kill Sylvie himself, but he wanted Loki to do it. He never once lifted a finger to defend himself from her. Thinking about it, since Sylvie is a variant of Loki, he would be killing himself, like HWR had to kill the other Kangs. Maybe that was the point.
  8. HWR wanted Loki to kill Sylvie. To make the hard choice like HWR did. His plan was for Loki to spin his wheels trying to come up with another solution and to eventually realize that the Loom needed to remain. That all alternate branches needed to be pruned or all the universe would be lost including the Sacred Timeline in the Multiversal War. Loki explained this to Sylvie and she responded that free will was so important that even if they all died, they at least all died fighting. They should have that choice, not to have lives controlled to such a degree in the Sacred Timeline to keep the Kang variants from starting a huge war.. Also Mobius telling Loki that we all have burdens and to choose which one to have. HWR intended for the Loom to remain, for Loki to kill Sylvie, after realizing why the Loom was needed. Why he wanted Loki to kill Sylvie to save the Loom is a bit of a mystery unless he wanted to play a little game for is own amusement. He never intended for Loki to become the Loom. He was horrified when Loki declared he should just destroy the it. It was Loki's idea to destroy the Loom and seeing if he could succeed in replacing it with "something better." Himself. I am not sure he thought he would succeed but he wanted to try. He rejected the status quo pitch HWR gave him after talking to Mobius and Slyvie. Now Loki protects the branches and the TVA is also protecting them and watching out for Kang variants. I like the little sign I saw at the new TVA saying something like, "Let's all grow together."
  9. Does any else think Sonia looks like a zombie?
  10. Haven't finished watching the episode yet, but wanted to point this out before I forget. We know in this version of the show Ben leaps into people's actual bodies, not switch places with them. So he should only have the strength of a 70 year old woman. So how was he able to punch through that drywall without breaking her shoulder? Love seeing Ian as the hologram!
  11. I didn't like Sylvie last season, but so far I like her this season. She made a life for herself in the alternate branch and I liked her interaction with her co-worker at the end. As for the workers in the TVA, remember they thought they were created by the Time Keepers. I really don't think they thought through the implications of pruning branches. Protecting the sacred timeline was their thing and their focus. Now that they know that they are Variants and some of them remember the lives they lived before they were taken, they finally realize the implications of what they were doing. Pruning branches means killing people, not just taking the Variants who caused Nexus events out of the picture, and "restoring" the sacred timeline. Which leads me to, how was it decided which variants would work for the TVA and which ones would be tried and pruned?
  12. Wait, I thought Tanya was confirmed for next season? Was that said in the press to throw us off?
  13. Yes, and I also just remembered when Adam first met Theo he was asking about the photo Theo took of Big Daddy. Theo told him Big Daddy died some weeks before. Now I wonder if Big Daddy was one of the first to die from AIDS, and that was how he came to represent that.
  14. Maybe that is why Scott Bakula said he wasn't going to appear in it. He said he read the script and wasn't interested.
  15. Yes. I hope they stay away from the evil leaper concept. I never liked it. They also did that with Sliders and it ruined the show for me when evil Sliders were taking over all the different earths.
