Here's a huge surprise...I liked it. There's been a lot of restraint this season and it suits me. But, of course, that probably means something.Read more... )

Well, despite trying to keep my anticipation in check for this episode, I still had high hopes for it, given all the advanced praise. I didn't have any specifics about it, though, so it still came as a bit of a surprise. I doubt it will surprise too many of my readers when I say I genuinely loved this one. This is the only episode of the Moff era that I can say that about so far. I enjoyed The Eleventh Hour, but I didn't love it, largely because of Amy.

Well, never say I don't admit to being wrong from time to time.

I will admit that I really enjoyed this episode of Doctor Who.

I also have to say that so far this season I have liked Amy Pond. I won't go so far as to say she's a great actress or even close to making my top ten favorite companions list, but I will admit that I think Gillian was indeed acting in Season 5. I, now, believe that she was intentionally acting as a precocious child might do in those circumstances, thereby reflecting the false reality of that entire season. And this season she is acting as a mature woman her age might and I find her much more palatable.

Also, I will admit that I loved Eleven in this episode. I hated him in the first part of the story though, so let's not get too excited by that confession. This makes 4 of the 18 episodes I've seen where I believed Matt as the Doctor.

And now to the plot points Read more... )
