Weird that Conrad keeps calling the Doctor "doctor Who".

Ok, maybe I should have waited another week. Where's the next episode!

I don't know what Wandavision is.

Had to ask google where Poppy had been seen before.

Took me a bit (or rather flashbacks in the episode) to remember who he  
was.

Where was she?

Had to ask google to find out who he was.

Who was Omega? They said the first Time Lord. And I was thinking, boo,  
not Time Lords springing from the Doctor nonsense again. But if it's  
from Classic, and Omega was the first Time Lord, it confirms that other  
nonsense was just made up by the Master or some other power that  
manipulated the Matrix. Hah!

> Kitchen sink. Tick.

Pretty much everyone and their kitchen sink indeed. :)) (I guess the  
Master, Cybermen, and Daleks are currently busy taking out the garbage  
or something, and thus missing from the kitchen crowd.)

And maybe we'll see the Doctor who made it all possibly by that thing  
with the salt at the edge of the universe. :)

Yeah. But I'm looking forward to it. This episode has been way weird,  
though at least in part fun. :)
