Rogue: Shapeshifting Birds at a Regency Ball
Rogue drops the Doctor into a Regency costume drama with shapeshifting alien birds and a bounty hunter he falls for. Charming, and gone in a puff of smoke.

Dot and Bubble looks like a social media satire about a city of influencers, then lands a final scene that reframes the whole episode. Genuinely nasty.
73 Yards strands Ruby in Wales with a figure always standing the same distance away, and gives her a whole life. Eerie, ambitious, and never explained.
Boom strands the Doctor on a live landmine on a war world where the ammunition is sold by the same company that started the war. The best of the run.
The Devil’s Chord sends the Doctor to Abbey Road in 1963 to face a god who devours music. Jinkx Monsoon is magnificent. The Beatles material is not.
Space Babies opens the Gatwa era with talking infants running a space station and a bogeyman made of mucus. Gatwa is great. The episode is not.
I read the Solo Leveling manhwa years before Crunchyroll picked it up. Here’s how A-1 Pictures’ anime adaptation actually stacks up, episode by episode.
The Church on Ruby Road launches Ncuti Gatwa with a goblin musical number and a plot built on coincidence. He’s excellent. The episode is thin.
The Giggle gives Neil Patrick Harris the best villain the show has had in years, then ends the Doctor’s story with a fudge nobody asked for.
Wild Blue Yonder strands the Doctor and Donna on an empty ship at the edge of the universe with something wearing their faces. Genuinely frightening.
The Star Beast reunites Tennant and Tate for the 60th anniversary, and they’re magnificent. The resolution to Donna’s metacrisis is the weak link.
A review of The Marvels, where Iman Vellani is the best thing on screen, Carol still underwhelms, and a post-credits cameo changes what the MCU can be.
A review of Loki season 2, where the god of mischief takes the threads of every timeline in his hands, and Victor Timely fails to sell Kang as a saga villain.
A review of Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 3, where Rocket’s origin turns out to be the whole trilogy’s spine and the High Evolutionary earns his place as a villain.
A review of Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania, where the Council of Kangs steals the film and the villain meant to carry the next decade doesn’t convince.
