“The community made the hilarious discovery that the mini-series began on 4/20 and was maybe not the result of Grian being forced to create this game by higher beings like everyone thought"
“Happy first birthday to 3rd life Grian. Even though your actually 28!”
CATESSSS. Whyyy Also the weed post. LOL

Universally accepted greatest scene in anything ever.
I started watching Doctor Who when I was super young (7 or 8, maybe?) in the late ‘80s. I love this show like no other. The 4th Doctor was my first Doctor, and I happily spent hours watching this show with my aunt on weekends while I was growing up.
When people ask me “What episode of ‘Doctor Who’ should I watch to get an idea of what it’s about?” this is the episode I recommend. It is sad and beautiful and funny and heartbreaking. It is lovely.
possibly one of the most hilarious exchanges on doctor who
Honestly all the conversations between the Daleks and Cybermen in this episode were fucking gold
My 80-year-old aunt just messaged me on Facebook to ask “What should I really see and do to prepare for the upcoming Doctor Who special?” When I was a kid I used to watch it with her sometimes — my dad wasn’t a huge fan of “that British show about the guy with the Police Box,” but Aunt Lucinda and I both loved it. My parents got divorced when I was pretty young and my mom encouraged me to spend that time bonding with my dad’s family. The 4th Doctor was (and still is) our Doctor.
I spent about 10 minutes sending her recommendations of things to watch (she had no idea so much Classic Who was on Netflix!) and articles to read and then spent another 10 minutes just catching up with her. Aunt Lucinda’s health hasn’t been great lately, so it was wonderful to hear from her and to find out that she’s doing well and feeling better.
One of my favorite things about this show is how it spans generations. I’m 32, she’s 80, and we both are so excited about the 50th Anniversary Special that we’re bonding about it from a few hundred miles apart. Thanks for bringing people together, Doctor.
Here’s the official Doctor Who 50th Anniversary Special poster without text overlay.
Because, really, who wouldn’t want some hints about one of the most massive mysteries in Doctor Who history?
A new (re)generation
Iconic sci-fi franchise ‘Doctor Who’ is kicking off a new era, as Ncuti Gatwa’s Fifteenth Doctor takes control of the TARDIS. Read EW’s latest cover story.
Can we talk about how in the Doctor Who 50th Anniversary special just this once, everybody lived?
I’m having a spirited debate and need a larger sample size
