Now, we don't dive into every single easter egg or meta reference, only the most […]
This week, the making-of series Doctor Who: Unleashed covers "The Well", the second season's return to gothic horror Science Fiction for the first time in years. This should be a fun one as the show covers the processes of filmmaking to shoot a 44-minute horror film that depends not on fancy CGI effects but mostly […]
The third episode of this season's Doctor Who, "The Well" continues this season's stronger and more confident streak of stories with a return to gothic Science Fiction Horror that the series was best known for during its peak period in the 1970s that Russell T. Davies and Steven Moffat continues during the 2005 modern era […]
There's a long-running arc in the current two seasons of Doctor Who, and that is that the gods have declared war on the hero (Ncuti Gatwa). Showrunner Russell T. Davies set it up in the 60th Anniversary special "Wild Blue Yonder," where the Doctor blurred the line between reality and opened the door for gods […]

Let's dive into the second episode of Doctor Who, "Lux". This is going to be all spoilers with the assumption that you've watched the episode.

Now that you've watched the first episode of Doctor Who, let's go into the ups and downs of "The Robot Revolution" since it has highs and lows and questions. Russell T. Davies likes to introduce the companions via their personal lives, including when they're kids to connect the audience to them. Alan's remark about girls not being […]
There's one thing unique about Doctor Who that it shares with Star Trek, which is that the series in modern times has had fans who ended up working in front of and behind the camera. During the 1980s and 1990s, Star Trek: The Next Generation was the only US TV series that had an open […]
It's interesting that the modern era of Doctor Who sets Rose Tyler (Billie Piper) as the main template for companions in the series. Every companion ever since has been compared to her even when it's not always an apt comparison. It's not hard to understand. Rose is an ordinary teenager with a normal life in […]
There's been a lot of speculation about the future of Doctor Who, and Russell T. Davies has said he has no intention of being the current showrunner forever. That makes sense. He has a whole career outside of Doctor Who writing drama and socially relevant drama and is already going back to that with a […]

Another day, another totally unsubstantiated rumour for Doctor Who. Ncuti Gatwa is leaving! David Tennant might be returning to play the Doctor? Oh, noes! It's more doom and gloom for Doctor Who! This year's Christmas Special is cancelled! The show is cancelled! Disney is pulling out! And the internet and the fans eat it all […]
David Tennant may have left Doctor Who for now, but he hasn't left Science Fiction or Fantasy behind since he's currently (reportedly) wrapped filming the finale movie of Good Omens, and despite taking on many "realistic" mainstream dramas, he's more than willing to do another Science Fiction project if a good one comes along. The […]
Former Doctor Who showrunner Steven Moffat seems to be living his best life now that he's no longer in charge of the show and doesn't seem to have any further involvement in the current series unless he's invited to write another episode. That makes him the best ambassador for the show because he's happy to […]
