the “go back in time and meet parent/family member you never got to know” plot is guaranteed to make me weep every single time

S01 E08 · Father's Day
Low 4.5. I thought the episode was overrated at first cause it wasn’t that interesting and also Rose and Jackie were being really annoying. But those last 5 minutes make up for it so badly. They’re genuinely perfect and very emotional. 2nd best of the show so far.

love that the same episode that had me bawling also managed to throw a rickroll in. well played, doctor who, well played.

A classic plotline in media that has time travel, and it still manages to make itself stand out. The best episode for Rose yet. Her and the Doctor just have such a great dynamic. I am a little confused as to how time works though. In one of the earlier episodes, they made it seem as if there were al

Best ep so far. Loving Rose so far and I’m glad they are making her an actual character instead of just “The Doctor’s sidekick” CGI oat

Doctor I don’t care that your people died lemme see your tits

S01 E08 · Father's Day
Doctor Who’s time travel rarely feels like much more than visiting new worlds (which is fine considering that’s part of the Doctor’s goal), and I think that’s because the Doctor and his companions almost always visit somewhere of great importance to the world or universe. But this episode flips both

I was scared at the start on how they’ll execute this and fuck that was damn great for the most part, still a bit confused with how they handle the journey through time’s thing but it works I guess. Rose was just insane here, her dynamic with The Doctor can’t stop to grow better. Very Good!

pretty bad cgi 😭 but the best ep yet

S01 E08 · Father's Day
I saw so many people swearing and hating at Rose for no reason because of this episode. Not on Serializd of course but still It’s crazy and meaningless.

S01 E08 · Father's Day
This episode always gets me. I’ll admit I cried again on this rewatch 😭

what is this bad wolf thing

S01 E08 · Father's Day
Rose does what quite frankly, anyone would try to do in this situation, try to save a parent from death. But it also brings to light how much Jackie never told her, the picture she painted for Rose when she was a child about the perfect Dad, only to realise not everything was perfect. How tough it m

S01 E08 · Father's Day
First bit of proper character development for rose in this episode, and a lot of it tbf

S01 E08 · Father's Day
Best so far 8,7/10

S01 E08 · Father's Day
Even if the cgi is horrendous and there's some very strange lighting choices, this episode is still brilliant. It's very well written and packs a lot of emotion. The performances are great and I genuinely was tearing up by the end. I love this show.

S01 E08 · Father's Day
