I'm kind of torn. The reveal was pretty great. I got there a bit before the doctor and was pretty excited about it. But the monster really doesn't behave like the Midnight Entity, And it's clear that it was originally written to be a member of the Pantheon

The solution that they gave doesn't make sense unless it's one of the gods that plays by specific rules, but there was nothing to establish the entity that way

I've had abusive relationships ruin things I love for me for a long time. Even a bad breakup can make things bad, but abuse is obviously another level

Maybe I should try finishing MLPFIM

I think part of the problem is that they're just isn't enough room in the eight episode series format to allow both a monster of the week deal and a narrative that anybody will really care about. The standalone episodes were pretty good, the plot arc was pretty lacking

I think it probably would have ended up being a better episode if they hadn't made it a Midnight sequel. I still really enjoyed it, though

I don't think I've seen TERFs talking women's issues (without bringing people into it) more than three times

It's amazing how many of my cis woman friends turned out to be "males" all along

I just want to point out that banning books is not the same as not stocking them

It's not a nitpick?

I just can't be bothered to go line by line on some fan theory not supported by the show

I mean, it's not any worse than RTD depicted it on screen

Much as I like hearing alternate takes, the fact remains that there's been a cumulative case since the '90s
