I’m sure there are enough Whovians here that we could debate the following ranking for some time:
(Yes, of course Blink is #1.)

What? Not a single episode from the 9th Doctor? Really? Not The Empty Child / the Doctor Dances? REALLY?
Or Dalek?
That is a very good point!
Poor Christopher Eccelston gets overlooked for too often…
But he was the first Doctor since 1996 on TV!
I am finally getting around to watching the (new) Doctor Who, and I think Eccleston really carries a Tom Baker-ish vibe. A little impish, to be precise.
Yeah, but with a strong dark undercurrent…
The underrated Star Trek
Well, it is also everyone’s favorite and people never stop going on about how great it is.
Well sure… but it’s the only series getting overlooked in the current Trek nostalgia (with the except of the recent Lower Decks episode - which I have not seen, but know that they go to DS9). So yeah… still pretty overlooked, despite the fact that it has a solid fan base, I’d argue.
That was my thought, in the decades since the love for DS9 has seemed to increase so i didn’t think it was at all underrated in Trek fandom but i agree that it appears to get overlooked in the Trek stuff being produced now. I didn’t think i’d see the day when Voyager would be the show to hit people in the nostalgia feels but here we are.
Watched this last night. Not your typical thriller.
10/10, would watch again
Black Butterflies (Les Papillons Noirs) on Netflix, a French crime / mystery series:
Good? Worth watching?
I keep seeing that one in my trending feed.
What’s the premise?
Well it starts out with two strangers who appear to have booked the same Air BnB in a rough part of Detroit. Bill Skårsgard is one of the guests and seems a bit creepy. Seems to be a standard thriller but it quickly goes off the rails. Hard to explain more without big spoilers.
Thanks; that’s enough for me to at least check out the trailer.
Speaking of reccos, and what I’ve been watching:
Interview w/ the Vampire; I am loving the new take on a old favorite narrative.
The Peripheral; I’ve only watched the first ep, but it was incredibly well done for a pilot.
del Toro’s Cabinet of Curiosities; also only one ep in, but I like what I have seen so far.
*edited for spelling
It’s good so far, I’m only one episode in and the story has me hooked. What seemed like a simple business arrangement on the surface has some very sinister undertones. Each person wants to use the other for their own reasons - it will be interesting to see if either, both, or neither gets what they expected.
