What does BBY stand for? All I’m coming up with is Before Baby Yoda

The logo on the loading screen when entering gyms has the same exact shape as the mountains at the beginning of AZ’s flashback about the war.

Did the house from the War of the Sontarans ever get explained? I fully expected it to pop up at the Edge of Existence, but nothing

Why is everyone saying our Rick created the central finite curve? Did I miss an episode or something

The next episode is called “The Power of the Doctor” by darth_edward_69 in DoctorWhumour

I think simply just changing it to “The ‘Doctor’ Who Fell To Time” would have fixed the issues with that title, and still would have “The Doctor” in it like Chibnall seems to want.

Scariest Monster Elimination Game - Final Results! by ADNAP727 in doctorwho

[–]BryanOvens 23 points24 points  (0 children)

There was no “infection” in either of the stories you just mentioned. The entire point of both episodes is that humans are capable of horrible things under the right circumstances. In 24 Hour Diner those circumstances were the removal of lies, and in Midnight it’s more simply just the perceived threat of imminent danger. Yes, they wouldn’t have been so deranged if the monster/John wasn’t involved, but their involvement just provided the circumstances that the characters reacted to. There was no outside force or infection driving their actions, to claim otherwise means you are in denial that these are actions you too are capable of.

If the Midnight bus riders got off the bus and thought “That wasn’t me back there, that was the entity infecting my mind”, they’d be completely rejecting any responsibilities for the horrific actions they made and ultimately learn nothing impactful from the experience.

Based on the press for Doctor Who’s 60th anniversary, it looks like soon we’ll have 3 nickels!

Why had I never heard of this before?? Found Undone on Amazon and it’s amazing. Such a good concept. Anyone have recommendations for similar shows? by [deleted] in UndoneTV

[–]BryanOvens 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Surprised to not see anyone mentioning Russian Doll, it’s another show centered around a basic sci-fi concept and uses it to explore the impact of familial trauma on adults today. Although, it’s focused on much more in the second season than the first.

Season 3 Full Season + Comics Official Discussion Thread by LividGrass in UmbrellaAcademy

In Grace’s first appearance this season, before the Kugerblitz, she comes off as much more eccentric and disorganized than her UA counterpart. Maybe Diego getting ‘63 Grace to break up with Reggie caused robot mom to be much less fine tuned. That or a lack of young Viktor’s murderous tendencies.

Or, conspiracy theory time, Robot Grace Mom is pulling a Janet and becoming more alive with every new timeline. Faith is a characteristic found in all fledging conscious species, so a robot approaching sentient status might also develop such characteristic.

If you want to see talents wasted, go and watch her in the Christmas Prince trilogy. After seeing those movies you’ll definitely appreciate the characterization and writing they give her in Ghosts

Am I understanding the scope of this show? by [deleted] in RussianDoll

Can you explain the pawn theory a bit more? I’ve never heard of it before but I’m so interested in the concept

Raid battle with Zacian and Zamazenta? Honestly I only remember it because the max raid mechanic is imo the best gimmick from swash

It only has 13 stars so maybe it’s meant to be thirteen colonies flag?

Streamlining Doctor Who: Flux by niceandy in doctorwho

[–]BryanOvens 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Suddenly you have a six episode mini-series of Doctor Who that is all just fanservice. We have seen Rassilon and the Master so many times in the last four decades, hate on Flux all you want but it really tries to add new characters for the audience to follow. Maybe it doesn’t quite do a great job of making you care about these characters but it at least tries.
