no idea why but for some reason i feel like the next episode of dr who's gonna be one i'll especially want to be caught up for? again no clue why i feel that way since i'm currently behind - it's not even like i've seen the teaser for it yet or anything - but fwiw the last time i had that feeling was before fugitive of the judoon, and love or hate that episode i'd say i was right about needing to experience it in real time. i've never been one to care about spoilers much but i do very clearly remember making a point of staying off dr who related internet spaces until i got home from work the day that one dropped (and having any feelings that remind me of pre-pandemic 2020 is already a trip in itself wow) & i kinda think im about to wind up doing the same this weekend (since i already know im not gonna be able to watch it right away)

#i will however try to catch up now so im at the right point to watch it soon as i do get a chance (& thus return here)#oh & i should state for the record i am not one of the people who thinks jonathan groff is gonna be playing jack somehow #(i realize that could sound like the implication given the otherwise very random comparison i just made. trust me i meant it to be random)#to be honest i would love to see his character be something like the one jamie parker voiced in plight of the pimpernel #(i mean if it has to be like anything we've seen before that is. which of course it doesnt)#again i have zero reasoning for this #i mean aside from simply having enjoyed that audio #but who knows perhaps once i catch up to where rogue actually falls in the season i'll have taken that back #it was a rather dark twist i could easily see it not being appropriate to drop in the middle of just any old season #depending on what the vibes of the surrounding episodes are i mean #i get the sense the most recent one was about racism no?#so for all i know maybe now is actually the time for a lighter one #still cant believe how far into this season we are #then again i cant get used to these short seasons anyway & i dont intend to either #8 episodes is honestly disgraceful it does NOT get credit just for being longer than flux #at least that had an excuse #anyway on the off chance anyone's been wondering - this is why i've not been posting much about current who lately #i've been too busy to keep up but hopefully that changes this week #the david tennant specials i also watched far after the fact & never bothered to formally comment on them #i think i may have thoughts on the first & last ones typed up in my drafts somewhere but im p sure we're done discoursing about those #so i was planning on just letting it go for now anyway #we'll see
