So. The Wedding.

I've loved a fair few things, was disappointed by a few others, and have mixed feelings about a couple of issues - especially plot wise. ONWARDS.

You know my feelings on what I love already, you know how much I love pretty much all the same things. Brigadier, you were loved and we hope you know that. That was the sendoff he deserved, and I hope Sarah gets something similar next season. (Or maybe SJA will film one last episode, or tack something on the end, and we will all be bawling.)

And YES, that is all my feelings on the Silence. As long as you can't see them and they're doing that time skip thing, they're terrifying, but once they come out of hiding they're complete dorks with rubber fingers and a flair for the overdramatic. And yeah, did not like how River was all teary, and then "Whups, look what silly little me did!"

Very interesting how this series, Moffat's continuity porn has grown to include new series stuff too. There's the parade of Holograms of Women the Doctor Has Screwed Up, and the mentions of Jack and Rose in this episode.

And DOCTOR WHO, I kind of like it, really. Yeah, it's obvious, but it makes all of those ridiculous titledrops all over everything make a little bit more sense. It's retconning every single silly "Doctor Who?" joke into something cosmically significant.

Exactly. The only thing that creeps me out about seeing them is that weird clicking sound they make. But otherwise, they're better and more frightening when you can't remember them. (Also, ugh, River. The problem is that I like her character but dislike her storyline. :/)

Two call-backs to Rose in one season, that's more than S5 had. I like it. I like that the Doctor doesn't forget, never forgets, any of his old friends.

It's retconning every single silly "Doctor Who?" joke into something cosmically significant. Oh my goooood hadn't seen it under that light. That's brilliant.
