Oh wow, that's probably my favorite VOY episode, it's really great without being gimmicky - good pick!

Another good VOY episode might be "The Void" - a nice little diplomatic episode with a dash of action.

"The Devil's Chord"

All right, it's hard to make the case that this one was less silly than "Space Babies," but I enjoyed this one more, largely on the strength of Jinkx Monsson's delightfully unhinged performance as Maestro, and the fact that I love The Beatles (not that they get a lot to do).

This is one of those high-concept episodes built around an interesting premise ("the world would end if there was no music") that DW often does really well. I think in this case, they could have done a little more to show the lives of the people in this music-free world, but it worked well enough.

Having Lennon/McCartney finish the Maestro off with the lost chord was blindingly obvious, and extremely perfect.

I've got to say, Chris Mason did an amazing job capturing John Lennon's mannerisms while singing. I happened to watch "Let It Be" the other day, and the guy did his homework. Pour one out for George and Ringo, though - they really didn't get anything to do.

My least favourite type of RTD episode is the Goofy RTD Episode, and this was definitely that. I doubt it will end up ranking too highly on my list by the end of the season.

That said, I always appreciate social commentary that's about as subtle as a sledgehammer, and the episode delivered on that. And Ncuti Gatwa's physical presence is something special - I don't think we've seen that kind of physicality since Matt Smith.

Also, uh, did the Doctor just suggest that the world of Star Trek is real in his universe?

This is obviously a sign that setting up this discussion thread was the right decision.

There's an update today, and (surprise, surprise)...no. Tenants were paid out for the remainder of this month, and they got their damage deposits back, but other than that they're on their own.

People assume that seasons are a strict progression of cause to effect, but actually, from a non-linear, non-subjective viewpoint, it’s more like a big ball of wibbly-wobbly, timey-wimey...stuff.

I'm not sure when I'm actually going to be able to watch them, but I'm looking forward to the full Ncuti Gatwa experience!

Everybody - and I mean everybody - loves Riker's donkey sauce.

Yeah...Culber had a pretty tough go of it when he went through it. I could see his feelings on it being...complicated.
