Zygons? I’m in for that alone.
I know from reading comments here and on other forums that I may be in the minority, but I’m so incredibly happy to see the “Bad Wolf” Rose pop up. It always seemed to me that when she took on the time vortex and in a way became an incarnation of it that things were over too quick. Yes, the Doctor sucked it back out of her (killing himself in the process) but it always seemed like more should have been done with that power than just spreading the words “bad wolf” around in the past.
I’m also really excited to find out more about “The Moment” that the Time Lords were so freaked out about the Doctor having when it was name-checked in “The End of Time.”
I will take Rose being back 100 times over if it means there will be no River Song.
Ugh. Don’t get me started on River. I loved her at the start, but it just felt like they didn’t know what to do with her. What really got me was they spelled out her ending with her introduction when she realized the Doctor knew she was going to die in the library. Her whole speech about him showing up with a new suit and haircut and giving her the sonic on a final date while crying…I wanted SO BADLY to see Matt Smith have that episode. It would have been so much better then the random she pops in and crazy happens episodes.
My biggest problem with River isn’t the character herself but that she’s treated like she’s the most awesomest awesome that ever did awesome. Clearly she’s the best, funniest, most cleverly designed character ever and everyone obviously feels the same way!
After watching an episode with her in it, I always feel as if the writers are watching me and tapping their feet before giving me a disgusted “Ugh, you’re welcome!” for not thanking them for including her.
I’m right there with you. I always felt like the best River/Doctor moments happened off-screen or between episodes. It felt like breaking the writers rule of “show, don’t tell” all the time. We kept being told how awesome River was and how much the Doctor cared about her, but I never really felt it on screen. Certainly never like I felt we saw it with 10 & Rose.
My problem with River was that they rushed her appearances in a short period of time, then suddenly announce ‘oh yeah, that episode where she died has already happened, no build up to it at all.’
She was a great concept, but they never really used her properly. Plus when she first meets the Doctor she says that she knows ‘all his previous faces’, but it turns out that she only ever meets one of his past incarnations, which makes it seem weird.
Then again, it IS time travel, so it’s not like they couldn’t bump into each other at a different point again, but it still felt wasted.
What I want to learn more about is the Nightmare Child.
Ohhhh, I’m so exited to watch this
Hmm. It looks as though we’re going to see the Dalek attack on Gallifrey. Cool.
More please..
