Not a lot of thoughts tonight. Dunno why. If I get any brilliant insights later, I'll let you know. (I've only watched it once, so you never know...)
- He calls her Pond! (And she continues to be awesome!)
- Love makes us human, not pain. (Oh Doctor! And Amy continues to be the perfect person for him right now!)
- He doesn't give Amy her own key. Interesting.
- Bob!!! (If you've not read
Torchwood Babiez (
tw_babiez) you should do so now. Or sooner! And does anyone know where there are icons?)
- Jammie Dodger ftw! (It looked like a jam ring to me, although it was probably just historically correct...) And "Don't mess with me, sweetheart" was, without a doubt, the line of the episode!
- Dalek with tea tray! (This was *so* an Old Who shoutout. You see, in the very time the First Doctor met the Daleks, they kept him and his companions prisoners, and brought them food on a tray.
FOUND A PICTURE! Many thanks to Sam.)
- Scottish Scientist was the sweetest thing ever.
- Amy does not remember the Daleks! The plot thickens! There is a crack in time! (I don't care to speculate, to be honest. I'm just excited. And abusing exclamation marks.)
- Mostly though... the Daleks are back! And (The Daleks in Manhattan apart, and that one is odd every way you look at it) every time they've appeared the Doctor has *defeated* them. (ALL of them OMG! They're all DEAD and GONE and will NEVER RETURN EVER! Trufax!) But - this time they got away, bigger and stronger and more multi coloured than ever. This could be interesting. *ponders*
- Oh, and like
selenak mentioned last week, it was nice to see that it was 'the good guys' using Daleks.
ETA: There's all sorts of things about the choices the Doctor makes (and the callback to 'Dalek' and Nine were obviously there), but I just can't... well, think. I'm sure someone else will do a fantastic job unravelling everything, and I promise to link you!
Preview: River!!! (Eps 4 & 5 will be a two parter, yes? I expect them to be better than all the previous 4 & 5 two parters, if nothing else then because of River. Not that the standard is high...)
