I figured this should be made for everyone – I didn’t see one already.

    Overall I enjoyed this one, felt like a return to a classic monster-of-the-week format, with a decent setup and good intrige, although the reason that the monster was created being ‘the computer thinks babies needs monsters’ fell a little flat for me.

    The commentary on abortion and refugees was a tad shoehorned also, but not a deal breaker for me.

    Really liking Ncuti’s take on the Doctor and his chemistry with Millie Gibson, and definitely excited to see where the overarching story line for the season goes.

      I agree with this 100% tbh. Though I also think the pacing is too slow for me. It seems like they want to work everything into the dialog instead of telling us the story visually too. I’m still happy with it so far though.

    This one fun and funny. Enjoyed the jokes. Had a friend who was watching it for the first time. So explaining who the doctor was and everything was greatly intertwined. He enjoyed it.

    I thought episode 2 was by far the stronger of the two, but I still really enjoyed this one. I always enjoy the episodes where they take an absolutely bonkers premise and just run as far as they can with it lol.
