Leela vs The Time War absolutely pisses over anything RT-D has come up with so far.

Pete McTighe definitely should be showrunner next.

I wish they'd keep New Who out of a trailer for the original show myself...

Great season, beautiful cover (best to date IMO). No release date though and I'm somewhat disappointed Fang Rock gets (unnecessary) new fx while nothing is being done to smooth the Underworld CSO like they did with Terror of the Autons. That's a bit shite.

I'm probably just remembering it wrong but it looked like they'd changed the background in the brief clip on the trailer.

If they tried to fix the CSO on Underworld they'd still be doing it in ten years. There's so much of it. Whole episodes are set in CSO tunnels.
