    It's been like that ever since the start of "new Who", which was certainly not built around streaming models. More just the constraints of wringing every bit of value out of their budget, which wouldn't stretch to a longer production schedule.

    Yeah, and there were similar things mentioned of later seasons, so it probably hasn't got any better.

    And was Ernest Borgnine still re-alived in that timeline? If not, what happened to not leaving anyone behind?

    More the former than the latter, it looked like they each had their own room, but also shared communal spaces like the kitchen.

    Spoilers Star Wars: Andor season 2

    My phone's autocorrect is pretty reasonable, but the one on my tablet is really annoying, often correcting a regular, correctly-spelled English word to another one just because its algorithm thinks I was more likely to have been failing to spell that one than successfully spelling the one I...

    Captain America: Brave New World - Official Trailer (2025)

    The fleet encounter at the Celestial island was a good example of a successful de-escalation from an in-universe perspective, but from an audience perspective it does feel like we were denied the spectacle of a Red Hulk leaping between aircraft carriers and smashing up guns and planes.

    Spoilers Doctor Who s15 (or 2) [[spoilers!]]

    Of all the dangling threads this season, what I find most annoying is bringing back Susan for some very brief scenes that may have been entirely in the Doctor's mind and then not following up on that. Bringing her in for such a brief, meaningless cameo feels worse than not ever seeing her again...

    And that wasn't the Doctor's mind control, it was Conrad's. The Doctor was under the same control. At no point does the Doctor decide that Belinda should be a mother.

    She always was, ever since Poppy first existed. And even after Poppy disappeared, once Ruby convinced Belinda and the Doctor that she existed Belinda wanted to get her back too. If anyone has cause to complain it's the mysterious Ritchie who is now a father, but even that wasn't the Doctor's...

    That one's already got a Rose, the genuine article. I'm not sure adding a Doctor Rose to the mix would help in any way. Captain Jack, on the other hand, would be overjoyed to meet her.

    Yeah, that joke hit me after a couple of seconds. An older reference, but it checks out.

    General video game discussion

    I played Elite Dangerous for the longest time after it came out, but stopped maybe a year after Horizons came out. It was a great game, but the unbalanced PvP and lack of an official multiplayer PvE mode killed it for me. Not sure how those aspects have developed since then.

    Captain America: Brave New World - Official Trailer (2025)

    Yeah, I saw it last night and enjoyed it well enough. Surprisingly closer to being an Incredible Hulk sequel than a Captain America sequel. The only thing that bothers me about Sam's journey is that I've never felt like Captain America needed to be some kind of inherited mantle to be passed on...
