I will never shut up about their relationship it’s so perfect and comforting they care about each other so much 😭😭
Doctor Who - The Star Beast
You’re my friend and you matter, whether you remember me or not.
what if i never stopped crying huh?
I don't have a lot of nice things to say about this episode, but what I will say is that the first 13 minutes were pretty dang good and them bringing the memory TARDIS from Tales From the Tardis into play was amazing. Every scene in there was absolute gold.
So I was trying to explain to my boyfriend, who has absolutely NO knowledge of Doctor Who might I add, some of my theories/evidence gathering. I pose it now to the theorists of DW Tumblr in the hopes you can use any of it.
(This is about the episode list that rtd said might be worth a watch before the finale btw)
Also after reading all of that the first thing he had to say was that Susan might be a version of Clara.
So this episode reminded me what Mr. Copper said in Voyage of the Damned about not being able to pick and choose who you save. September dies needlessly and no one wants the Doctor's help even though he begs them to come with him.
Also the racism jumpscare at the end was amazing since I was thinking to myself that everyone looked like they'd fit into a mid-2000s cgi Barbie movie. However, being white myself I didn't really notice there were no people of color and was more focused on the classism.
Don't you hate it when your father is smelted and you have to carry his packed remains in a bank vacuum canister?
Also, Susan Twist again! And they know there's no way we could have missed her so many times because the next episode is an old woman following them around menacingly. Who is she, and what does she want?
Damn, I miss when you could blow sand in someone's eyes and it would just sting real bad. Now they just die instantly.
So after Church on Ruby Road, what's everyone's theories on Mrs. Flood?
Lol maybe sutekh is the one making it snow around Ruby to try and make them more invested about finding Ruby's mum. He just wanted them to speed up their investigation so he threw in some spooky snow

“Mom’s gay friend from her thirties had a mental breakdown so he’s going to live in our backyard for awhile until his antidepressants start working” is the funniest ending any of us could’ve hoped for God bless
QUICK REVIEW OF NEW DOCTOR WHO EPISODES:
Ncuti Gatwa is bringing us a joyful Doctor who is happy to be alive, and honestly, that is so wonderful and brings me such joy. Ruby Sunday is also just a delight, and I can't wait to see how her story progresses. Space Babies was a fun silly story that I liked (although whatever cgi they used to make the babies talk weirded me out). The Devil's Chord was ICONIC and just filled me with glee. Jinkx Monsoon is such a wonder, and I absolutely adored the Maestro. I'm so happy to see Doctor Who that is fun and exciting again. This might be blasphemy, but Ncuti Gatwa is taking over the role of my favorite Doctor. Move over David Tennant, there's a new guy in town and he is THE COOLEST. Can't wait to see more.
Thoughts about the Doctor Who Christmas special:
This episode was SO FUN. It was sweet, funny, but above all, this shit was GOOFY. I think doctor who is at its best when it doesn't take itself too seriously. This episode had goblins in a big pirate ship and the Doctor doing a musical number. It was so silly and I loved it. The Doctor is finally allowed to have fun and serve cunt, as God intended. Ncuti is so cool and is already becoming my new favorite doctor. Ruby is super cute and spunky. I can't wait to see more of both of them.
