Leave it to Doctor Who to give us all a new inanimate object to be terrified of, joining statues, shadows, and cracks in the wall.

But what is interesting is that "The Ghost Monument" manages to take a concept that's already been done dozens of times with other people and jazz it up into something that feels like we haven't seen it before. Or at least, not entirely.

The good news, however, is that even if it's a little lackluster in execution, "The Ghost Monument" is off by a matter of degrees rather than in a way that indicates the show is fundamentally missing the mark. This very much feels like a proper episode.

What a difference a week makes. With the team's first trip into outer space, Doctor Who is feeling like Doctor Who again; opening titles, a stunning new Tardis, behind-sofa-worthy scares and, most crucially of all, running.
October 15, 2018
All in all, it's another strong outing for the show, but an episode a little different than Doctor Who is used to. Whittaker continues to show she's more than a match for the iconic role, and the new line-up of companions are working out nicely.

Overall, the episode works as a fascinating, swashbuckling bit of sci-fi fun.

Well, Doctor Who Season 11 Episode 2 definitely gets the cardio in along with a heap of hiking, a bit of boating, and a scoop of Doctor-approved pacifism.

"The Ghost Monument" is a serviceable actioner even if it's somewhat unremarkable in the storytelling department.
October 15, 2018
The TARDIS looks radically different than it has in the past few seasons, and we're impressed with the changes the show has made.

The more the show just gets on with telling its story, the easier it gets for the audience to nod our heads and make friends with it.
