What’s the best way for a writer to handle being assigned the “Doctor light” episode of the series? 1. Scare the crap out of us so that we forget everything else (i.e. Blink). 2. Give the companion the chance to show how incredible they really are (i.e. Left Turn). 3. Cheat and put the Doctor all throughout it anyway. Jamie Mathieson seemed to like all three so much, he used them all.
This week we discuss “Flatline”, the second episode of the series by Mathieson. With a nearly perfect blend of humor and horror, this episode was in incredible treat this late in the series. Join us as we discuss the adventure that has made us afraid to walk past murals.
