Spoilers are under the cut.
Doctor Who Early day yet, but I liked Thirteen a lot in the first episode. Now I know I’m easy to please when it comes to the Doctor- even the Doctor I like the least, I like a lot.
I have no opinion about Chibnall whatsoever, and I’m not going to judge the plot in the first episode. It was rather weak, IMO, and there were some things I didn’t much care for, but I think it’s difficult to have a great plot when you are also introducing a new Doctor. I feel optimistic about this season as of now, and I think I will like Thirteen a lot.
The Man In the High Castle I’ve only seen four episodes so far, but I think I like this season better than season 2. Rufus Sewell continues to be absolutely amazing. I know some people don’t like that he is, at times, presented as sympathetic, but for me, that only serves to make him scarier. I find his character absolutely terrifying.

I found the use of Tomorrow Belongs To Me during the memorial pretty chilling too. I haven’t seen anyone remarking upon that- is Cabaret so forgotten? Despite the idyllic setting of the song in the movie, I always found it deeply disturbing. Or what do you say?
Good Omens Still don’t know when we get to see it, but I really like the trailer. I hope it will be as good as it looks here!
And American Gods. Can’t wait for that either!
