👍🏼= GOOD!

Thworping through time and space, one adventure at a time!

I absolutely love the swinging 60s-era US depicted here (and the Doctor in a proper suit and hat). It’s also intriguing that this story ties into Rassilon and an alien criminal he defeated long ago.

The art style is very sharp, and I enjoy it a lot.

Clara is much more bearable here, and the Doctor is very sharply written. The other characters aren’t too special, although I’m a bit hung up on Frankie Seneca, clearly meant to be Frank Sinatra.

I love how this is so bonkers that we'd never see it on TV—Octopus aliens, time guns, a seamless mix of history and sci-fi—yet how stylish and classic this storyline feels.

The climax is perhaps a bit underwhelming considering the build-up, but it also sort of fits into how a lot of modern Doctor Who stories end.
