In 1890, painter Vincent Van Gough was troubled by an invisible monster that he alone could see. He found help with the sudden appearance of a time traveling alien known as the Doctor (Doctor 11) and his companion Amy. ("Vincent and the Doctor", Doctor Who, vlm 3, TV) Later that year, Vincent was inspired to paint a picture of the TARDIS, the Doctor’s time/space machine, exploding. ("The Pandorica Opens", Doctor Who, TV)

The Bear (Season 3, 2024, USA)

Creator: Christopher Storer

Directors: Christopher Storer, Duccio Fabbri, Ayo Edebiri & Joanna Calo

Mini-review:

I'm honestly surprised by the amount of hate this season has been getting from fans. Was it as good as the previous two? Maybe not, but it's still miles ahead of almost everything else on TV these days. I guess the problem is the first two had specific endpoints in mind (saving The Beef and building The Bear, respectively) and this one doesn't, which is what makes it feel rather adrift. Still, I don't think that's a bad thing, per se. This shift means plot takes a step back to focus almost completely on the inner workings of the restaurant and the characters, which in turn helps us learn so much about all of them. Seriously, how can you say it's a bad season when we get episodes like the one about Tina or the one about Natalie and her mother? And sure, the plot might not advance too much, but we get a true acting masterclass in every episode. So yeah, this season of The Bear might be slower and more contemplative, but in my opinion it's almost as momentous as the first two.

'As fans continue to dissect the latest episode of Doctor Who, Wild Blue Yonder, Russell T Davies has revealed some expository dialogue which was cut from the original script.

The dialogue in question would have taken place when The Doctor and Donna were looking out into empty space at the edge of the universe.

Davies explained the reason for the cut on Instagram, saying: "Okay, so I know the Doctor has been to the edge of the universe before, and further. The First Doctor went to Quinnis 'in the fourth universe'. The Fourth Doctor went to the Planet of Evil! And the 13th was on board Tecteun's ship in-between universes.

"So, this is the scene with the Doctor & Donna looking out at the nothingness, Draft 3, 17.04.22, where I acknowledged that. And then I cut it, because [snoring emoji]. But still, the Doctor was thinking it! True fact!"

The dialogue in question, which was posted on Instagram by Davies, saw the Doctor say: "We're so far out. Past the Condensate Reefs. Over the Realm of the Boltzmann Brains. Beyond matter. And light. And Life."

Donna would then ask whether the Doctor had been out that far before, to which he would say: "Oh I've straddled multiverses. But only inside magnificent Timeships. To stand here like this... Physically. Unprotected. Right on the edge. No, never. No one ever has. Until us. And this ship."

In the comments to Davies's post, former Doctor Who showrunner Steven Moffat joked that he had "notes", before going on to jokingly request that all previous stories referenced are shown in flashbacks and that the story features more characters and a different setting.

Wild Blue Yonder mostly took place at the edge of the universe on a single spaceship, but also featured a surprise opening with Isaac Newton, played by Nathaniel Curtis, and a touching scene at the end including Bernard Cribbins's last performance.'

Curtis Moffat :: Woman looking over shoulder in front seat of a car. c.1925-30 (made). Victoria & Albert Museum. London.

"Beyond his London portrait studio, which attracted high society sitters, Moffat experimented with a handheld camera to make modern and often playful images that reflected the youthful energy of the 1920s. Here, a woman – possibly one of the ‘golden’ Guinness sisters – glances back at the camera, ready to ride off at speed in an open-topped car."
