The Old Switcheroo
This week, we take stories that weren’t our personal favorites, and explore what a little change of Doctor and companion might do for the same story situation.
Classic Rewatch: Earthshock
We spelunk caverns and then explore the corridors of a 26th century freighter in this 1982 nail-biter that sees the return of a certain silver menace.
Torchwood Rewatch: Children of Earth, Day Three
We reach the midpoint of the “CoE” miniseries season where all the pieces are now arranged properly on the board, and the game turns wickedly dark on a dime.
Whovian Mixology – The Companions
We crack the cap on our final installment of character-themed drink menu creation, this time devoted to the Doctor’s dearest.
Classic Rewatch: Black Orchid
In a fast-paced and equally quickly-resolved two-part story, our TARDIS classroom arrives in 1920s England for a cricket match and a bit of masquerade murder.
Torchwood Rewatch: Children of Earth, Day Two
We reach the second installment of the “CoE” season of Torchwood, and while the anticipation of horrific things is palpable, we need to get really invested in all our characters first…including the antagonists.
Too Much and Not Enough
We really don’t envy the challenge that the BBC’s marketing department faces when deciding how much to share about upcoming series production, and when.
Classic Rewatch: The Visitation
The entire TARDIS classroom is back in session, but the history lessons are rather anachronistic in a trip to Heathrow that failed to meet Tegan’s expectations.
Torchwood Rewatch: Children of Earth, Day One
With a deep, steadying breath and a word of thanks to our listeners for their encouragement, we begin our journey into the tumultuous third season of Torchwood.
Comparing Timepieces: 12 Monkeys
Stepping into other film & television properties that explore time travel, we look at Terry Gilliam’s 1996 exploration of a post-pandemic attempt to return to normalcy. (Too soon?)
