It stinks.  It is pay-off to all the build-up of Flux in the weakest way possible.  Once again Chibnall ends a big story by vomiting out some exposition and farting out a conclusion to the conflict in the most hand-wavy means possible.  Flux as a whole is a colossal failure.  A catastrophe of undelivered potential.  Is half the universe gone?  Have our characters changed or really been challenged at all?  It will take another show-runner to answer that and even show a hint of the Doctor grieving.  I like looking back on this now a bit more since the franchise has moved on a bit.  Flux is not much more than a bad memory now and I prefer it that way.

If you can manage to describe the plot of this as anything other than "Things happen" then I commend you. Far too preoccupied with spinning as many plates as possible that it hasn't stopped to even consider how to put them down without smashing anything, and the end result is a rather confusing mess. No seriously, is the universe still destroyed by the end of this story? I have no idea.

A lot of threads to tie together here, and the result is hard to decipher.

It's a shame; because many of the concepts are great and deserved so much more. If a few things were cut to give stories the space they deserve, this could have been a great!

This wasn't bad for a 6 episode long story arc, I had fun with it. Not exactly entirely my thing and I just didn't care for the villains at all. Dan is a really fun character and I wish he was a companion for longer than he is!!!

In our careening into the finale we've ended up somewhere tonally adjacent to Power Rangers. I enjoyed watching it but good lord
