This community was founded early in season one, around the time that “Boom” was released. After the season ended, we went back and did some “Retrospective Discussions” to cover the first couple of episodes of the season, plus the Tennant/Tate specials.

The main conceit of them being “retrospective” is that we’re free to discuss things in hindsight, pulling in context from later seasons as desired.

After that initial run, I put them on hiatus, as engagement was understandably lower than with new episodes. But…we’re looking at a potentially lengthy break between new episodes, so maybe it’s worth looking at the idea again.

I think “Rose” would be a logical place to start, for ahem multiple reasons.

What do we think? If the interest is there, we could start on the weekend.

    I’d be up for this. !theorville@lemmy.world is doing a similar thing currently. The Orville rewatch has been pretty low-activity as well, generally receiving 1-4 comments each, but I’ve enjoyed having an excuse to rewatch something at a slower pace than usual. I suspect that might be true even for people who don’t comment, where just having a weekly episode schedule is nice regardless of whether people have anything to say about it.

    Sounds like a good plan to me, especially since it seems like there won’t be any new episodes for a while. Could be a nice way to fill the gap.
