First of, it's not a bad show. I was able to watch all of it, and it's just not bad. But I wouldn't call it a masterpiece, or a show worth rewatching.

Other than season 1/ maybe 6, the overall plot to each season was just... Bad. I don't know how else to describe it. Again, not that bad cause I am giving it an 8, but definitely not the strong point of the show.

While BoJack does get good development, most other characters other than S1 are just stupid people running around. Dian is ok though.

Loads of people say this show is really deep, but really it has like 3 episodes with a storyline. Also the last two episodes are overrated. Second last episode had no atmosphere and feels to... Understandable and dragged out slightly. The last episode nothing happens. I get it's a character episode, but even that is just people having average conversation. It is still a decent episode, but 9.6? Is it really a Heaven Sent?

I do like, however, the universe of animal people. Also how it's never explained, but it does raise the question of whether all meat they eat is from intelligent life that has been killed, which feels like a slight plot badness.

The main success of the show is the wit of the writers. Everything feels so planned out and comes together in a really satisfing way. For example, Free Burrito. Sometimes the writers will do a quick ego boost by making a character say a bunch of alliterating words, which gets annoying after the first time.

I can tell the writers are good, but they didnt have enough material to make 6 seasons, as while there are highlights most of it is just watchable filler.

His accent and overall performance was just amazing, especially when you consider the same person wrote the companions lines. Other than that just basic historical figure episode, similar to the Shakespeare code in some ways. Ending was fine, really nothing at all to complain about. Felt the using people's images and scanning earth was bordering on to high tech, but it's acceptable

However, the use of these aliens feels out of place. In other historical figure episodes (which only occur up to season 5) the monster would have a link to the figure or the period surrounding them. The ghosts with Charles Dickens, for example. Even the van Gogh one could be linked by the the fact the monster is unseen by everyone, like the beauty in his paintings at that time. But some random spider scavengers hunting down an underappreciated electronic scientist? They just didn't match up at all. If they used some like electric monster, or anything to do with that time it would have been a cleaner episode. Also the chase scene was purely for show and the trailer, as it is so unrealistic they could out run those things. I know they bashed into each other, but still.

Also the doctor knew to much. Like would just state plot points out of nowhere.

The atmosphere was better. The humour was a bad, but still. However, some aspects of the plot don't make sense. If the master had Jodie in his house, surrounded by the aliens, why not just pretend to be useless, cut the power or something and let them get Jodie then? What I just described works and protects his identity. Yeah maybe she could have caught him out but still. Also not enough was shown of yaz/Ryan breaking in, and how come Ryan just escaped? They should have included MI6 for that.a And units officially dead. And sonicing a plane?

From the snippet of the episode on YouTube, it looked slower and more intelligent than thriller. Jodie seemed slower and more reserved. Well it was fast paced and Jodie was as 'goofy' as ever, and her character isn't that good.

Sure the next part will be better, but this wasn't good.
