I'm watching the new season of Doctor Who (first time I've watched any) and absolutely loving it, but I'm only partway through episode 3, so no spoilers, and also watching the older Canadian series Flashpoint which is about a team of cops who are trained in negotiation and things like that (though they do have lethal options) and get called in for hostage situations, bomb threats or anything out of the area of expertise for regular police. I also recently finished reading Records of a Spaceborn Few by Becky Chambers, the third book in her Wayfarers universe, which was amazing!

You're in for a treat with Dr Who! I'm glad that 13 is your first Doctor, I hope you enjoy her.

I already love 13 very much!!

I've never watched Doctor Who and am curious if you feel you're jumping in the middle or if it seems fine starting with the new Doctor?
I'm interested, but tend to be a "completist" and am not sure I want to invest in all the prior seasons.

And I loved Flashpoint! Such an under-rated show.

We seem to have some media consumption in common, I hope you don't mind if I follow you on DW.

I've sort of picked up bits of Doctor Who knowledge from being around friends who were in it, but I really didn't feel like I was missing anything when I started with 13 (to be fair, I'm only partway through episode 3). When I finish 13, I am going to go back and start with 9, and then work my way up until I've caught up, but that's going to take literally forever
