You guys managed to get the reaction out pretty quick.
Episode 1...childish on a peppa pig/ paw patrol level. Camp, weird and made for toddlers ironically🤪. Ep 2...alot better. Just skip ep.1
Hopefully episode 3 will be a banger and it seems like a cool concept.
Did you notice that when we saw video of the three crew members talking about the company and lodging a complaint, the third officer - the Comms Officer, was the actress who played Isaac Newton’s assistant at the start of Wild Blue Yonder. She also appeared in the Christmas special at the bar, asking if Ruby’s group can play any Gaudette.
She is also in the second episode, serving food in the canteen that the Beatles are in.
She’s gonna be a big character….
I see you guys didn't enjoy the first ep thats fine it was considered a flop
9:09 "Sometimes, it looks even better through your eyes". So essentially the reason the Doctor has companions is the same reason we have reactors on youtube, so we can relive the things we love through someone else's eyes
Like the 11th Doctor said:"I can't see it anymore. I'm 907, after a while you just can't see it. I look at a star and it's just a big ball of burning gas, I know how it began and I know how it ends and I was probably _there_ both times. After a while, everything is just _stuff._ That's the problem, when you make all of space and time your backyard, what do you have? A backyard. But you? You can see it. And when you see it, _I_ see it."
That is an incredible and perfect comparison.
Truth and lol… the doctor like reactors 😂😂😂
@@Connor-ONeill love you for this x
I’m usually pretty critical of visual special effects in everything, but Doctor Who gets a total pass. It’s ingrained into the DNA of the very show. Even when we have good CGI, we also have bad CGI. I’ve just learned to accept it all. From 1963 to now.
Don't take a shot everytime he says "space babies". You will die.
Lmao why does he say that so much?
RIGHT!
Daily reminder to everyone that uncanny valley doesn't equal bad effects. We shouldn't ban certain concepts in writing just because uncanny valley is unavoidable. Its the reason modok looked "bad". Despite just being an upscaled human head in a film with great effects otherwise. If you want to work out if its UV or bad... look at the rest of the effects. If the rest is good... why would the most important effect be not given as much care?
P.s. if you're looking for good consistent effects as a requirement in doctor who, even now... give up. Sometimes its ok to not be perfect.
Co-sign…the camp is part of the fun. Literally always has been.
Absolutely fair comment, I appreciate this. I think we had differing levels of being able to see past / acclimate to it, but I appreciate what they tried here & how they went about it. And you're absolutely correct haha - wonky effects are kinda Who tradition at this point. The imagination is what counts.
Everything you said is right - except about Quantumania. That film is straight-up one of the ugliest looking blockbusters I've ever seen, and MODOK is just the cherry on top
@@geekhideout8161it's the exact same principle. Modok... is literally just an upscaled head. They can't screw that up. Its uncanny valley. 100%. And you can call it ugly on the eye... the whole movie even... but you can't call it bad effects. Unfortunately it's unavoidable with characters like modok and she hulk. Just upscales. No drastic changes. Too close to human. Which is why Davy Jones looks so good. He has so much detail. It's not just a smooth skinned block green upscaled woman... or an upscaled giant human head. More proof? Look at bruce hulk in the she hulk show... he looks so much better despite her being the main character. Why? Because he doesn't have smooth skin. He has stubble. Wrinkles. Bulkier. More inconsistent skin colour. Not perfect hair. In other words... detail. Unobtainable with she hulk as the comic depiction is a model with smooth skin, perfect hair etc. Also why... old hulk, looks better than professor hulk. Less human expressions and facial appearance. Less severe uncanny valley.
I'll add as well... ep 2 was ssoooooo goddamn good
As soon as I saw them blowing their noses I knew the bogeyman would be made of bogeys especially since it reminded me of sleep no more
Sleep no more?
@@AnvilPictures where the monsters were made of sleepy eye dust.
@@otps8035 oh that one yes. The Sandmen
I'm at least 80% confident that when the Doctor mentioned the Bogeyman reminding him of something he was referencing Sleep No More.
The second he said that was the moment that I realised what the monster was
Wow! That’s some real commitment to the reaction channel to turn down watching it early in the theater. I admire your commitment!
These episodes were a little silly, a little scary, and a lot of fun. And they were BEAUTIFULLY shot. I’m stoked to watch where this season goes.
You pretty much summed up doctor who and is something I’ll always admire about the show is its ability to blend all sorts of styles, genres and etc all into the show and has never held itself back with one specific tone etc
😊❤ I love when Russell T Davies makes episodes that are just so far out there that just confuses everybody
73 yards ending moment
😊❤ 6:25 I think you’re correct John I think he gave a little bit of his regeneration to the butterfly. By the way, I also love the fact that when they got back inside, he went quickly and switched on the supposed protect butterflies at all cost switch. That was so funny.
As soon as I saw the baby farm, I thought "Oh no. Is this RTD's answer to 'Kill the Moon'??" 😅 This episode sells me on their companion vibe more than anything else. Loved episode 2, so i can see why they released them on the same night.
😊❤ so what I took away from the episode about the bogey man is that it’s not the last of its kind. It’s the only one of its kind the doctor initially was not gonna do anything to save it until he started to realize that just like himself it’s the only one of its kind so it deserves a chance to live. Also, the bogey man is not evil. It was just programmed to be that way, so it wasn’t evil by choice. It’s the computer system programmed it. Remember it was not programmed to hurt the children. It was programmed to just scare the children.😊😊
This whole episode is literally a baby fever and I love it. They are such a parents. So good
This episode feels like RTD wanted to do his own remake or “version” of The Beast Below, and like that story I don’t really love this one, but it serves its purpose well and Gatwa/Gibson have electric chemistry.
I really really don't understand what people are complaining about. Good character and relationship building between the leads. We have camp back. It feels fun, exciting, joyful. Things are explained with buoyancy and seat-of-your-pants energy. Ruby's openness and optimism is wonderful. The tone works. The pacing flows. And I think that we're missing that this *IS* a kids show.
Season 1 from 2005 was entirely silly. The pilot had a trash-can eat a person and then spit out a rubber doppleganger. The second episode had "the last human alive" which was a piece of---ehem, hold on, give me a moment... stretched skin on a rack with a pair of eyes and lips. "Moisturize me" is a meme. The build up throughout that ridiculousness led to some of the most emotional, connecting, and thrilling storylines in all of television history.
Doctor Who has been changing since its inception. Right now, the show is talking about realities without having to MAKE a point, and it feels like we're going back to what I loved about the show and missed about Whitakers seasons: the relationship between the Doctor and his companion. I understand that they're not tying up all the loose ends on how/why things happened in this episode, but... maybe they don't have to right now? Maybe that's not what we're doing.
Ep 2 of this season might be one of our all time faves
@@ReelRejects Wow! That’s incredible. I’m excited to watch now. Hopefully this episode makes more sense then in relation to ep 2?
Also, thank you for the reply ❤️
That's exactly the word - camp! Full-on, dialed-to-11 camp, especially with episode 2. It's delightful.
My only thing is I hope they tone down the constant giggling and jumping. Just a smidge. It made sense at first because this is all new to her and he's a whole new doctor. But giggling and jumping purely because you're moving and not because something joyful just happened is taking me out of the story. It feels forced. Until I see them snorting space crack or something, I can't help but think "Uh, y'all good or did they put actual crack in your lunch?"
I stopped watching when they got rid of Rose.
I guess people are complaining because they dont agree with you about the virtues and defects of this show, nor of the ones of earlier Davies seasons either. It is not neuroscience. As Moffat would say... pay attention.
"That's why I'm your companion. I helped this episode. I'm Ryan." says John with the cutest goofiest smile.🤣🤣Made my day. We love you John. Liked this episode a lot.
😊❤ just for a reference yes, the space babies are actually all six year olds
I had a feeling that they were six. I told my husband that this happened six years ago and that meant that they were six years old. But what I couldn’t understand was how they remained as babies.Did time stopped for them? Or could it be that they were abandoned by their parents is the reason they stayed that way ? I’m just grasping at straws here.
I saw Mrs. Flood in both episodes, and now I'm invested.
What? Where?
I’m SO EXCITED that Who is back and that y’all are reacting to it on the channel! Please don’t stop!
Episode 2 coming sooooon!!! :)
@@ReelRejects lfgggggggg
@@ReelRejects
I second jason.
Watching your reactions, along with Late to the Party, is my actual introduction to Doctor Who (I've seen clips over the years and am familiar with certain actors from the franchise, like David Tennant and Matt Smith).
Great Reaction Greg and John! The Chemistry between the Doctor and Ruby has been pretty great! 👍
Just as I started rewatching the old season yall do a reaction! Love it and hope y’all enjoy it!
I did notice the This is Gallifrey theme in the first episode playing when the Doctor was talking about which was beautiful and perfectly placed. We also got a mention of the Rani, and further acknowledging of the timeless child, also love that we get parallels to rose where he said he can’t take her to the church and also made her phone into a superphone for one call, also loved the humour in this episode and how it says Mavity and also the fact we got Amy and The Doctor Parallel where he was scanning her to see if she was actually pregnant. The Original Voice Actor that was supposed to play Eric the baby actually got moved to a bigger role in UNIT. The ‘are we wrong’ scene is absolutely beautiful
😊❤ ruby is amazing character and I can’t wait for the rest of the season to see how it ends
YES to Roxy and Tara reacting to Haunting of Hill House! I’d love that much much more than more 80’s horror film franchises
YESSSSS
This new Duo have incredible chemistry, for both episodes they were the highlights.
Yesss. And here they were such parents.
Isn't the "Nanny" also Queen Charlotte in Bridgerton?
You are right!
😊❤ so the reason why I didn’t figure it out earlier was because I thought since they were English, they pronounced bogeyman different than how we pronounced it in American English so I didn’t connect baby boogies as the bogeyman so that’s where I got thrown off, but it was right there all the time
Russel did this on purpose. The most camp insane episode... as episode 1. Thie is doctor who. People cant say "its not the show i thought it was, its too camp" because they saw it right from episode 1.
Doctor Who never was camp...not like that. Talking babies running a space station with the boogieman in the basement....who wrote that. 🤪
@@Sam-zu5mryou... you HAVE to be being sarcastic. There's no way.
@@Sam-zu5mr The first episode of New-Who from 2005 had a trash-can eat a person and then spit out a rubber copy of that character, and it didn't kill him in the process
@@quietdimeAnd then it literally burped. 3 episodes laters we got farting aliens on downing street with lines like "I'm shaking my booty"
@@Sam-zu5mr you're just lying
To me that was top of the line return of Eccleston era Who "style". Ncuti and Millie are great and have perfect chemistry, It's camp, It's weird, It's wonky in the best way possible, yes Dr Who is defo back and I'm totally here for it.
Eposide 2 was... unbelievabley phenomenal
Yeah bar the musical number at the end...typical Disney and cheapened the depth of the story arc. Too camp.
@@Sam-zu5mrI don't think doctor who is for you. I'm guessing you haven't touched it much as this is the second time you've claimed issue with campness... which is funny when this is famously the campest show on tv. But that's ok. It's not for everyone. But don't linger on a show that you will never like.
P.s. remember Disney literally have no creative control. And season 1 stories were written... before the deal with Disney. They have control over distribution... not including musical numbers or any writing.
@Sam-zu5mr blaming Disney who just have streaming rights is crazy
A Beatles episode with almost no Beatles, no Beatles songs, and a cartoon villain that loses zero danger that ended with then worst “twist”?
@@johnspahn420the doctor who magazine literally addressed that. They couldn't get the rights to the music. It's too expensive. It's why they never did it before. So Russel implemented a story reason why we don't hear their music
Ncuti basically took the role and turned the Dr. Who amp up to 11. I love it
😊❤ Greg John wait until you see the episode after space babies you are going to love it. I was completely thrilled with it. Also let me say this to any and all comments who are hating on Doctor Who so far. You may think Doctor Who is Science Fiction but let’s face it. It’s always been science fantasy. It’s from now on until it no longer is on the air anymore so you know what, the ride and quit hating because I love the heart of Doctor Who and it makes me happy so don’t look for the bad just enjoy it for what it is. Oh, and one last thing how can you hate babies? They are so adorable.🥰🥰🥰🥰
15:14 What the fuck. The transition from that person to Ruby was super scary. What does it mean?!!!! Is she that person?! Maybe it is her from the future
THANKS for this!!!! The chemistry between the leads is remarkable. The first two are basically "Doctor Who Unleashed!!!" I think new fans will be intrigued and (some) hardcore (old) fans shocked--hopefully in a good way!!! WOW!!!
They could've done this episode where everything was exactly the same as what we got - but just not cgi the baby mouths. Just make it so that their strollers could take their jibberish and translate it through little audio speakers. Boom, no more weird uncanny valley, same story. (That said, I still really enjoyed the infectious energy of the two leads.)
That probably would've been better tbh
Heck, this episode had the potential to have a callback where the translation is done using a tiny device like a earbud which the Doctor gives Ruby and when she asks why the Doctor doesn't need one, he just says, "Oh, I speak baby"
These episodes are tense but light and fun...feels like old Doctor Who. Soo much fun
Strange. I was scared more of the babies than the bogeyman. Lol.
Really...it seems like a childrens comedy...not for adults. Weird and childish🤪
@@Sam-zu5mr you're weird and childish
@@Sam-zu5mrDoctor Who is for older children and adults.
What is the MOST-CONVINCING Talking Baby Effect you've seen onscreen???
none of them. but I did enjoy look who's talking.
No. It was extremely creepy.
Twilight for sure 😁
14th doctor was my first. Been looking forward to this show. The Doc and Ruby have some crazy good chemistry. i am excited to see what is to come of this season. Mostly to see where the Ruby story is going.
Oh that's great. Welcome to the Whoniverse ! There's a lot of great stories waiting for you
Defo go back and watch from the start of the 2005 revival if you can. It slaps
did you look into the older ones?
better don´t, it will ruin the "modern" show for you...
@@Metzwerg74 To be fair, it's not like the show started to look good with series 14
@@hothemeep1219 it looked good UNTIL the second season of dr. Karen....
The episode is just a fun and silly one. The baby's mouths didn't bother me too much after a while I just ignored it and remembered it is science fiction. The rest of the visual effects looked great to me. I don't pay attention to the "uncanny valley" of vfx.
Loved the reaction and discussion guys! Doctor Who is getting bonkers for even a show of its own concept, and I'm low key here for it!
Can't wait to see your reaction to Ep 2 which was my favourite of these two, will that be up soon?
And will the Ncuti/Millie/RTD red carpet interviews be up on just Patreon or YT too? I used to sub to your Patreon but money's been tight recently, keep meaning to get back when I can 😅
This is technically a continuation of the previous seasons but it’s being label season 1 because of the fact that the previous seasons are exclusively streamed on Max for I don’t know how long the broadcast rights last for.
OH WOW I really liked this!
As a fan of the show, his personalities always been changing but yes he has a lot of respect for life. Also nice pfp.
This is The Doctor. You're in for quite the adventure madam 🥹✨
Looking forward to chatting with y'all tomorrow!
😊❤. Just for your continuity so there’s no confusion later the goblin king episode that introduced Ruby essentially the Christmas episode Disney+ is calling that episode one on the series so I don’t know if that’s gonna affect you guys with your thumbnails but I just wanted to let you know that’s the one that they’re going with.
What is this labyrinth? We had the goblin King in the first episode and now we got babies in the second and now we have a musical number in the third that’s basically labyrinth.😂 all is missing is a David Bowie episode
Like John when he first said space babies, I too completed it with… of the galaxy, but then every time he kept saying it my brain kept doing it!!! The last time he said it I was like if he says that ish ONE MORE TIME! 😂😂😂😂
Just found your channel with this review. Subbing right away. Love how much you can tell that you love Dr. Who!! i'll go back and watch all Dr Who vids you all have.
I watch this episode two times in a row and honestly it grew on me the second time
I hope you’re ok Greg. Sending you big hug from Australia
Honestly, this episode of Doctor Who was better than most episodes that I've see of X-Men '97 because Doctor Who has actual plot. They set the plot devices up early in the episode, and we are rewarded when seemingly ordinary events turn out to be explanations for the general adventure, which is something that is greatly underused in storytelling on film. Everything worked mechanically, even if the jokes were a bit juvenile.
so far im loving this. 15th and Ruby has such great chemistry.
😊❤ oh one thing for consistency for you guys. They are considering the Mrs. flood episode as episode one space babies is episode two and the next one is episode three I don’t know if you can fix that or not. I noticed that on your screen capture for the episode.
😊❤ space babies was cute, but where you have to treat it like science fantasy is the fact that physically if they were six years old, but their bodies remain as babies, their vocal cords would not develop to be able to pronunciation words. But that would be the logic of reality and with Doctor Who you can leave that at the door.
I really liked Ncuti and Millie. They have great chemistry. I don't love the constant exposition of the Doctor's history to Ruby. Fifteen feels a little too trusting of Ruby. She’s this giant question mark and he’s spilling a lot of secrets to her. If he's investigating who she is in secret, I don't know if he should be giving her a TARDIS key after 24 hours of knowing her. I guess I'm just used to Nine to Thirteen being protective of their history/more mysterious.
I do have a freakish delight in uncanny valley. These *space babies!!*
Being born in the 50's, I saw a LOT of...um...hilariously unfortunate special effects...the stuff that made nightmares at least more interesting.
It's Doctor Who. I don't expect fab effects. Don't even want them.
😊❤ hi trust me guys. I totally know that this is not prime quality episode of Doctor Who but it was just silly enough for very young child can enjoy. Cause I am sure there’s plenty of heavy stuff coming soon.
20:22 😭😭 they would be literally the best parents ever here.
Also.. ‘Look Who’s Talking’ set my standards for talking babies, this made me wonder how is it 20/30 years later, they managed to make it look worse 😅 I’m like um, is it the moving mouth, then quickly I realised their facial expressions not matching the situations or even the words was what it was, but that made me feel bad, cause they’re babies 😂😂😂 so I let it go.
I also found the ending with the boogeyman, off a little, watching it here the thought that came to me was ‘oh if this was so and so’s doctor, the creature would die and the doctor would have a go at the person responsible, and the companion would see the doctor angry for the first time and try to calm things down, and we learn that humans always try to kill what they’re afraid of, and the doctor who named himself that to save people, get disappointed with us every time and disappointed with himself for not anticipating it and saving the being…’
When I put it like that I realised that all the episode was missing was a little more consequence, even after saving the bogeyman, all we got was bad nanny but we love you anyways, and she’s like I know I won’t do it again. Which makes you think… y’all have been here 6 years!! That woman hasn’t spoken to anyone else in 6 years! She’s been playing a computer and been terrified of the monster in her basement for 6 years!! Her wanting to kill it made sense but the lack of deeper emotions or conversations after? Isn’t this doctor supposed to be more open about confronting hard emotions, that’s how they set him up? So why not have a moment with ruby and the woman talk about why the solitude was hard, why she should take the bogeyman in, we just brushed past the fact she was about to kill herself for the babies just before they arrived, that she had to PLAY AS AN AI for 6 years to avoid harsh realities… but no instead we hug babies and tell them it’s ok to be different… I 🧐
I’m starting to realise my issues with this more than before 😅
Can't watch this yet.. about to get off work and watch the Show.
😊❤ OK the farting space station may be a little much but honestly poo in space is actually kind of funny
I've never seen Doctor Who before. Do I need to watch the previous seasons to understand this one or can I just come in and start with this one
Maybe watch the "Specials" they had for Christmas before for a small introduction, but I think you can appreciate it without seeing the previous seasons. Each episode feels like a little story on it's own. They kinda explain the Doctor to the new assistant, so without knowing everything, they explain the essential elements
Generally you can jump in at any specific doctors first season, The majority of new who fans start at the 9th doctor lol because that's when they did the revival
Ive loved every doctor who episode so far , love lots of classic episodes too
I loved this episode 3000! 😜
I enjoy that they try new things each time they have a new who. But it also seems like they're trying to rewrite cannon each time as well. It's hard to stay behind sometimes. Even as a die hard.
As a Doctor who fan who has watched almost every episode ever, I will say I like that they made it explain everything at once the reason is I'm not looking at it as a American or Brit, the reason they did it this way is because the Disney+ deal allows this show to be shown around the world to places that never seen or heard of Doctor Who and those people will need to understand. The Disney deal didn't start really till today's episode RTD even said that. So for that reason I'm ok with this looking at it as a new person who never seen the show.
😊❤ this is how I think they should’ve done the space Bab talking. I think it was back in Matt Smith’s era it was I think a Christmas special with the Cybermen that he went back to visit this one guy from a past episode. The man is a new father with a baby and Matt Smith is having a Conversation with the baby and all the babies doing is going goo gaga and all that stuff. The dad says you’re talking to the baby and Matt Smith says yes I speak baby. Take that concept put it into space babies and the babies they didn’t actually have to have the mouths moving, but you can easily have the tardis do that whole language conversion thing like they do for the aliens and the babies speak so that Ruby understands what they’re saying instead of having their mouse digitally move around.
I was afraid authority babies might cannibalize the Doctor and his companion.
Ummm.. Does that Space station have brakes or is it gonna crash into the planet.
10:54 This is the cutest thing ever
Ruby’s mom is the One who waits
Have you EVER seen an American 'hero' save the monster? That is the difference with Doctor Who.
16:14 Don't you recognize it is her Her Majesty The Queen Charlotte
40:57 I'm glad you said that I'm tired of this whole "hate because its cool" fad if you dint like it no ones forcing youbto watch it just move on I used to be like that and because of that way of thinking I missed out on some good shows and movies and I'm sick of it if I'm entertained if I'm happy then thats all rhat matters to me
Bravo 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Doctor Who is for kids in the UK. We have to remember that as adult fans.
ive never been arrested but i don't know why anyone would want to get arrested!
Episode 2 is one of the best episodes of doctor in so long. A solid 9.9/10. I got emotional cos doctor who is back!!!!
I feel like this episode is one I might like more later. Like, I liked it, but there was an odd feeling to it that kept me from loving it.
I did however, really like that moment with the Doctor saving the monster and the narrative reflecting on his loneliness. I feared the show wanting to remove itself completely from it's past, but the Doctor dealing with this is both something new and meaningful, while still connecting to the show's past in a way. I'm looking forward to seeing where they go with it.
I DO hope this uhhh "title" thing with the names is either an expansion upon Galifrean culture or whatever, or a fun lie the Doc is telling Ruby to avoid her trying to learn his name, and not a retcon lmfao. Because the Doctor's name being his promise was super cool and if they just got rid of that idk what I'd think >.>
This was very silly and quite confusing just in terms of...the rules of it all but I didn't dislike it 😂 I enjoyed 15 and Ruby! I love his theme music especially and I'm excited for what they're setting up as the over arching mystery of Ruby.
Clara is one of my faves aswell and im loving ruby
This episode was enjoyable; admittedly janky. But I still had a great time, Ncuti’s speech about not having a home, etc almost made me cry. The Devil’s Chord was 👌👌👌
I liked the devil’s chord except the dance at the end and the fact we never heard any Beatles’ song
@@otps8035 the dance at the end tied the whole episode together and sort of put a pin in the plot and how it resolved. Also probably VERY difficult to get the rights to the Beatles songs.
@@chazo1367 well it’s mostly cos I’m worried about Disney’s involvement as there has been a lot more singing than ever before on DW
@@otps8035 Disney is in no way involved with *any* part of making the show. They *only* distribute it.
Thing is in this and next episode unless you know Original Doctor Who? References might go over your head. The Rani was a damn fine villain and though I love the callback, it’s really been a sin that she hasn’t ever reappeared in modern Who.
Who at disney/bbc thought it would be a great idea to release this at midnight in the UK
For the simulcast release in the US.
It's morning for me I'm in Australia and it was 9:00
Yeah i hate that you cant really talk to anyone about it
Is that any worse than Paramount+ releasing new episodes of the various Trek shows at like 3 AM EST?
The Mandelorian was released worldwide it came up at 8am! Midnight is better.
Guessing we are just forgetting about the other doctor
The showrunner confirmed this week that David Tennant has now retired from the role. We won’t be seeing the other Doctor again, at least any time in the foreseeable future
@@jasonmarbach I didn't expect to see him but at least 3 times he called him self the last one when we all know he's not
10's era is done
@@daurydavis3983 still doesn't change the fact that he's not the last one
@@ppem1988 he literally is though, what are you talking about? Ncuti’s doctor and Tennant’s doctor are the same person. They’re just in the same time period twice. He’s not a different person.
Episode like this are why I am hesitant with RTD. He was the show runner for the the ninth and tenth doctors. But he will also give you some great episodes (like Midnight). So I just take these types of episodes episodes and do not think to hard about them.
Ncuti and millle have great chemistry, ruby remind me of Clara Oswald looks abit like her too. This was so a weird episode but I enjoyed it glad to see doctor who back!!! Loved your reaction 💙💙
What about the first first episode?
😊❤ hey Greg John remember no expletive food for you
This episode was fantastic but no major flaws unfortunately people are going to cry about certain stuff
And that's why I avoid those comments/people let them be negative I'm gonna go back to having fun so as my favorite doctor used to say *GERONIMO*
This doctor rules. And companion. Loved the episode and hyped for the second as apparently its spectacular.
Point is, anyone upset by the castings and making up things to hate. Shame on you.
5:04 And I love it
How is it that the human body in the Whoiverse can make monsters? Our DNA? Our dead skin? And now boogers of all things. What's next, teeth?
Even Fat creates monsters, The Adipose.
@@marshsundeen I don't count adipose because they are alien. The others are actual monsters that act ravenous. But good point.
Space Babies assemble.
19:14 you want your baby back baby back baby back ribs😂
Is it just me or does anyone else think 🤔 ruby it’s exactly human
i really liked this episode i didn't mind the space babies having them talk was just a little odd lol.
Never watched this show(I know why am I watching?) so guess should watch the other seasons only 2mins in & have questions. Might started with doc before Tennant
Watch the Specials from last fall, and the Christmas Special. Then start this. They are explain a lot in this episode, but it tells you how he got here.
Love love love Ncuti as the doctor. Been a fan of the show since 2005 and he’s one of my favs
Why does he keep saying he is the only time lord? Now that Tennant’s doctor is at Donna’s house?
Because there the same person one would split in 2
When Roxy and Tara get to Curse Of Chucky and Cult Of Chucky, Greg better make sure they watch the unrated cuts for those movies since the theatrical cuts don't have the post credit scenes that set up the next installment because Greg keeps skipping the unrated versions like he did with The Descent, Jennifer's Body and the Saw movies
We got too many unrated cuts of films that SHOULD'VE been released as the final cut of the films in theaters and home media from the start.
I think my feelings about this episode are about the same as yours. I love love love Ncuti and Millie as the leads, but the space babies were creepier than the monster to me. In fact, if they’d done one of their classic Doctor Who twists and had the babies be the evil ones at the end and trying to wipe out the poor boogeyman species, I wouldn’t have been surprised, lol. I think the time limit hurt them a bit because the about face from “this thing is terrifying” to “everyone wants to save it” was extremely quick and that made it harder to buy into the idea that it needed and deserved to be saved. Maybe there should have been a scene where, instead of finding Eric with the nappy quip, they instead discover that Eric was safe with the monster who was just lonely or whatever.
This turned out to be one of my least favorite episodes of the show, but Ncuti’s vibrance and energy saved it for me.
I am looking forward to the Ruby story, though, so while I’m a bit disappointed with this episode, I’m still excited for the rest of the series.
Here’s hoping the Doctor remembers to keep the butterfly compensator on from now on!
10:17 He is so cute I can't
