I’ve been sleepwalking my way through season 2 and 3 of this range. I liked the first one well enough but since then it’s the most uninteresting sludge that BF put out. I had to be really really high before I could finally appreciate an episode, but I have to say, I’m happy with this one. They gave me my McGann cameo, and then they gave Vienna and Passion a sweet send off, and then we got a cliffhanger teasing camp fun with this incarnation of the master.

Unless the quality of the writing and performances get better, nothing will, but Vienna getting written out was 100% necessary and it felt great and paid off her entire arc with both Passion and the Master.
