that which holds the image of an angel becomes itself an angel

I love you, new fandom. I love you so much. Give me a few more episodes and I will be desperately searching for fanfic and pouring out adulation in squee-laden blog posts...quite like this one. It's actually quite rare for me to fall for a show this fast and this hard. Congrats, Doctor Who. You snagged me. You blinded me with science shippy moments

I mean...they shouldn't have had it hammered in so much that the Doctor is the last of his kind and old and loves children and the whale is OLD and the LAST and loves CHILDREN and have I mentioned OLD AND KIND AND LAST AND CHILDREN. At the third or fourth repetition, I was done. So very done. T

JUST A WEE BIT BLATANT, RIGHT? Oh, my god, by the end I was like 'really? he's the last, you say? the very last? really?'

Do all of the Doctor Who plotlines deal with creepy, fucked-up creatures? If so, WHERE HAS THIS SHOW BEEN ALL MY LIFE.

Watch the Moffet episodes. I was just talking to a friend about his amazing ability to make such simple things so fucking terrifying.

And how he stomped on the communicator when Bob told him that the Angel was making her countdown to her death to frighten her because they thought it was fun.

Agreed. It was the wholesome tone that just made the whole thing.

I would have liked more explanation on these things, like...what created them, where did they come from, and what the hell do they do to you after they kill you. Eat your soul? Drink your blood? Steal your left sock? Would have been nice.

Oh my god you need to watch "Blink" right this very moment. Seriously. It's another creepy, wonderful Moffet episode and explains how the angels kill.

Those Angels really stripped the consciousness of the right person to make their messages seem extra creepy. It was this polite, young, slightly nervous voice and just so...evil. Brilliant.

Blink sounds amazing! I'll go look to see if I can find it on the site.

Blink is amazing. I hope it's there.

Just watched Blink on youtube. I LOVED IT. Kind of wish Susie would appear in other episodes now. That scene with her and the policeman on his death bed is so sad. T_T

[redbrunja]

It was! And the police man was so hot with his jamacian accent. I mean - he was just SO HOT.

Sorry, sidetrack.

Yes, it was a great episode and I hope Sally Sparrow shows up in later episodes - although maybe not - she was pretty perfect in Blink.
