nice spoiler picture for the episode -.-
Hate to be cynical but the show has jumped the shark for me. Was expecting some sort of naff Fight Club 'mind fk' rip off last season (& I loved the show then for not doing it...) & they have pulled it out now [rolls eyes]. I wasn't that shocked. Decent episode; just a shame they took this boring route.
^if Tyrell Wellick is another split personality of Elliot then I give up. I thought Tyrell was going to be the Fight Club rip off last season but they never did it. Maybe they're holding that one off for season 3 ¯_(ツ)_/¯
I hate dream sequences in shows; as it always shows lack in actual story telling. Was way too long too.
Last season was great and this season it just feels like it's dragging on with this kind of nonsense.
This show is getting way too pretentious. Too much dramatic intense music for too many long boring corridor scenes/shots.
It really is starting to think it's bigger and more serious than it actually is.
Kind of reminds me of how Homeland went; which is a shame. I.e a lot of borderline jumping of the shark moments (this episode and season in general).
Obviously left it open for a reboot in the future, much like 24. The next trend for tv at the moment are these reboot mini series of 'old' shows...
Frustrating episode in general. Bloody Clara back just ruined it for me. Ruined its for me for the extent of why return to Gallifrey...what was the point? The story told was a stupid waist of bloody having the Doctor return to Gallifrey. Too many tacky & we guessed/already knew this stuff. Imagine Face the Raven was season finale & therefore Heaven Sent was the Christmas episode - they could have started the next season on Gallifrey. Although I'd hate the long wait, it would have been better than what we got. There is a lot more I could say but it would just frustrate me more 'Damn you Steven Moffat!' haha.
The usual boring episode this show is known for i.e 5mins at the start to draw you in and then a mind numbingly dull drag until the last 5 mins. I can't stand Rick anymore...
Too little too late. Pad her out and hamfist her whole 'important' character this season all they like I don't care for this Allison character. Feels like Howard Gordan is just rehashing so many stories from '24' this show feels way too deja vu/stories and twists have been done before.
A decent enough episode and would have given it 7/10 but being it has Clara FINALLY killed off/leaving the show(hopefully there won't be a gimmick to bring her back one last time with the stasis machine or something other before the season ends) I have decided to give it an 8/10. Such an awful companion imho.
Another over hyped rubbish episode by Mark Gatiss. Not scary, not interesting. A shame as I thought this season was great/brilliant with no rubbish filler episodes up until now.
Dodgy cgi and dialogue. I cracked up laughing at the awful opening part before the opening credit music...also Bear Mccreary's music scores this episode are lazy rips of his work/music from Defiance. I couldn't take the intense scenes serious/properly with the Defiance music. Just a MESS of an episode. Please no more black & white!..It's not hard to differentiate past and present(or even future) stories in this world's timeline. They've done it fine/well enough so far in the show - it just seems more lazy. [Not a great shoddy start]
Sort of a poor man’s Touch. Got much better the last 5 episodes but it is a bit of a knock off of Heroes crossed with Touch, with the obviously Matrix influenced vibe. Just not original at all. If it was on normal TV it would have been pulled and canned(with good reason). Shouldn't really get a second series in my opinion... but being Netflix this would get years of renewals with their track record.
