Just watched this for the first time. It really is terrific. The episode The Passenger has certainly upped the ante all round in terms of filming and FX.

I confess Season 20 is not a favourite of mine by any stretch in fact i think it's quite poor but i can't wait to this to come out. The new extras look so much fun and i'm sure i'll appreciate the stories more too.
