Apparently so could Amy Pond.

New trailer for the upcoming season.

One of those lines gave me a chill. I like when the Doctor goes full badass.

Marathon all day today on BBCA.

New episode in 7.5 hours. They have a running countdown on the screen.

Interesting way to start a season.

Most aggravating two-parter ever. If you haven't watched the first one yet, wait until the second one is also available if you can.

Yeah, I agree with that. It almost feels like it was originally going to be a 2-hour episode, but then they decided to make it a 2-parter. It just sort of ends in the middle of a thought.

That S6E2 was exhausting. I feel wrung out after watching it.

Pretty good resolution, though, you must admit. Very smartly done.

Although, if you think about it, this does imply that moon landing hoaxers are a defensive tactic.

"Doctor's Wife" is one of the best episodes of the entire revival.

Post by **TPRJones** » Sun May 15, 2011 9:53 pm

Really? I thought it was okay because of the character stuff, but somewhat sloppy in terms of plot.

MINOR EP 5 SPOILER + MAJOR EP 1 SPOILER:

So, if we now have an extra Doctor, that could come in handy considering that we killed off one Doctor at the beginning of the season.

Interesting. The only thing I have to say about that is the old guy (Canton something) said, "That is most assuredly the Doctor." To go with a double, now, would be cheap.

Post by **TPRJones** » Mon May 23, 2011 8:42 am

I thought about that, but the Doctor is insisting that the gangers are just as real as the originals. It would be a little cheap now, but if this is the way it goes they've got half a season left to make us care enough about the ganger to make it count.

I kept getting a vibe of.... what were the mannequins called from "Rose?" Were they all the Nestene Consciousness?

Post by **GORDON** » Mon May 23, 2011 10:25 am

Autons. I was getting an Auton vibe and wondered if we were seeing their evolution.

Regarding the ending of Episode 6: Now there's some major what-the-fuckery right there, eh?

Given the timing, I guess it must have happened sometime during their independent investigations of the Silents. It wasn't spelled out but I had the impression that that took some time, and she was alone for much of it thus providing ample opportunity.

You talking about the episode that hasn't been on BBCA yet because of the holiday weekend?

Post by **TPRJones** » Sun May 29, 2011 12:58 pm

Oh, sorry.

I did try to keep it totally vague, just in case. Although I probably should have avoided the pronoun. Sorry.

That's ok. No idea what you're talking about.
