This week, The Repeater reveals the answer to the cliffhanger that left everyone on the edge of their seat about which television show he’s been enjoying while getting his screaming bundle of joy off to night night land, as well as how this show is stuffing the “doctor who” void in his heart that the last season failed to fill. Also, he refers to his infant daughter as quote unquote “he” late in the show, but we let it slide.
