    Harbo: "Good luck finding anyone willing to make a complete history of the daleks."
    Dalek Bumps: "Challenge accepted!"

    I miss when Sci-Fi creators would add all these (ultimately needless) little details, accessible for those that look for it -- For those that genuinely get involved in a story, it really helps them connect to it.
    On a separate note, I always liked the name "Metaltron' and always thought the episode should have been named this. The reason is that the scene that reveals the Dalek was brilliant, both in regards to Writing and Directing, and I always felt it a shame that the episode's name acted as a spoiler.

      Tbf, the reason it’s titled like it is was to increase viewership in the middle of the series in case it dropped off halfway through, which worked if you check out the viewing figures

      Why? Because of Saul Goodman? The only thing Van Statten and Saul Goodman have in common is that they both wear suits and are balding.

    If you "fully buy out another person's company" that's not gonna bankrupt them. That's gonna guarantee them some pretty big shares payout and with a company worth in the at least tens of millions (probably hundreds of million) the former CEO afterwards is still gonna be a millionaire

    I recently played Xenoblade Chronicles 2 and when looking up for the voice for the character Amalthus, I was like, "OH MY GOSH! IT'S HENRY VAN STATTEN" so I've been thinking about this character a lot lately and it's cool to learn more about his history 😊

    If you have any idea how the internet works then "secretly owning the entire internet" is just absolute nonsense. What would be possible is that he like owned most or all major nodes or long range connections but "owning the internet" is just theoretically and practically impossible

    I get why they dumped him in Sacremento. It's close to Salt Lake City. But wouldn't it have been great to dump him off in say Santa Fe, San Antonio, or Scranton. You somewhere not that close to Salt Lake City. Heck why not just plant on the side of the road near the Tapen Zee bridge on Interstate 87, here in New York.

      haha I was looking for this comment before I made it myself. Y2K is now seen as just something tin foil hat people believed in because nothing ever happened. When actually it was juts an example of a collative known problem that companies HAD to invest to fix... and. Did. Successfully for the most part *shakes fist at kids in older millennial 😅*

    Fun Fact. Van Statten says that the next President should be Democrat and in 2012 when we had the US election We got a Democrat president because Obama was elected into his second term so Doctor Who kind of predicted the future

      @@zarrg5611 This was 3 years before Obama was elected for his first term and 7 before his second term. The US was in the depths of the Bush era after a chain of Republican presidents. Like when you get politically stuck in a rut for ages with the same party making all the choices it can be hard to see the other option in power. But like this was 2005 RTD and the Doctor Who producers weren't to know what was gonna happen in the next two elections so they just wrote that line and put it out into the world. It just so happens that what was said in that line actually happened.
