Come to Quark’s, Quark’s is Fun!
General off-topic chat for the crew of startrek.website. Trek-adjacent discussions, other sci-fi television, navigating the Fediverse, server meta (within reason), selling expired cases of Yamok sauce, it’s all fair game.

I don't know how you could get past Capaldi's first series and not see what an incredible Doctor he is.
I tried so hard to like things in the Chibnall era –– I was so excited when Whittaker was cast and I think she did the best she could -- but after reading Elizabeth Sandifer's evisceration of the Chibnall ethos in her piece on Kerblam! (which I think also applies to ENT, tbh) I think I've come to terms with the fact that I'm not really going to get there.
At the same time, "Demons of the Punjab" is probably a top 10 episode for me, I really love it.
"It Takes You Away" is delightfully weird, the New Years specials are generally pretty solid, "Fugitive of the Judoon" is pretty good even though the greater arc-stuff is not, and I have good memories of "The Haunting of Villa Diodati" and "Can You Hear Me?" even though I haven't revisited them since the first run.
