Doctor Who ‘The Girl Who Died’ Review

“Immortality isn’t living forever. That’s not what it feels like. Immortality is everybody else dying.” From the next time on last weeks episode I sort of assumed The Girl Who Died would be another Robot of Sherwood. Good but not great, just a fun lightweight episode that had no bearing on the rest of the series. But this is […]

Doctor Who ‘Under the Lake’ and ‘Before the Flood’ Review

Due to time constraints and having recently purchased the Metal Gear Solid HD Collection I will be putting the reviews of ‘Under The Lake’ and ‘Before the Flood’ into one post. And then an opinion on the two parter as a whole at the end. Read on! Under the Lake “I’ll do all I can to […]

Doctor Who ‘The Witches Familiar’ Review

“I didn’t come here because I’m ashamed – a bit of shame never hurt anyone. I came here because you’re sick, and you asked.” After last weeks strong opener, this weeks episode of Doctor Who had a hell of a lot to live up to. Plus Moffat could only stay good for so long right? He had […]

Doctor Who ‘The Magician’s Apprentice’ Review

“Davros. My name is Davros.” Doctor Who is back! While it might not be the most consistently good show on television I think everyone can agree that TV is just that little bit better when Doctor Who is on. And the newest series got off to a pretty strong start. That opening with the ‘hand mine’ […]

Doctor Who ‘Death in Heaven’ Review

“Hey Missy you’re so fine, you’re so fine you blow my mind, hey Missy!” What a downer ending. I mean I appreciate Doctor Who taking some risks but that ending leaves The Doctor and Clara in a very sad place. This was the second part of a morbid two-part finale. And is it satisfying? Yeah…for the […]

Doctor Who ‘Dark Water’ Review

“Do you really think that I care for you so little that betraying me would make a difference?” Doctor Who finales have a lot to live up to. While some recent ones have been a little disappointing, they’re usually some of the best parts of the series; series’ 2’s and series’ 3’s are particular highlights. This […]

Doctor Who ‘In the Forest of the Night’ Review

“Even my incredibly long life is too short for Les Misérables.” Well! This one is sure to become one of the more divisive episodes of recent Who. A fascinating concept handled in an…interesting way to say the least, although it was far from successful. The episode begins with a little girl finding the Doctor in the […]

Doctor Who ‘Mummy on the Orient Express’ Review

“I’m The Doctor and I will be your victim this evening, are you my mummy?” The Orient Express? In SPACE? How is that not awesome? It’s a train in space! Ok that’s a little silly. And I guess we’ve seen this idea of transportation in space before (Voyage of the Damned?) but this was pretty […]

Doctor Who ‘Kill The Moon’ Review

“I’ll smack you so hard you’ll regenerate!” Like Listen before it, Kill the Moon is certainly a love it or hate it kind of episode. In fact that’s the overall feeling of the series a whole – it’s the Marmite season. While I have enjoyed every episode of the series so far, I know people that have hated them […]

Doctor Who ‘The Caretaker’ Review

“I’m the one who carries you out of the fire. He’s the one who lights it.” This episode could really have gone either way. Episodes in the past which show The Doctor trying to ‘blend in’ with humans (The Lodger or Closing Time for example) have been somewhat of a hodgepodge. Also there’s always a worry when […]
