Q: What do Garfield and the Doctor have in common?

A ten-minute sequence stops “Joy to the World” cold, yet turns out to be the heart of the 2024 Christmas special.

“Empire of Death” epitomized RTD’s approach to season finales that he deployed to popular (if not always critical) acclaim during his first stint as showrunner. What happened this time?

A check-in after November 5, a promise about Empire of Death, and thoughts about the way forward.

In case you missed me on The Incomparable’s Doctor Who Flashcast, here are some last-minute thoughts about TLoRS and where it fell down prior to the season finale.

“Pace and energy” and high concepts give way to a man with a foot on a landmine for the duration of the story. Tension-filled bottle episodes are rare for Doctor Who, although there are a lot of parallels between this one and 2009’s “Midnight.” How does Steven Moffat’s return to Doctor Who fit with his showrunner’s current experiment?
