Thoughts on Doctor Who, in bullet form because my thoughts are muddled up.

- Susan's "life choices" is pretty gross, tbh.
- Amy being asked if she's a mother, and the dude magically read it in her eyes (were they "kind"? It was some such nonsense. Can we all agree that there are certain things that don't change when you're pregnant or give birth?
- The gun thing. I don't know if it was a snark at the British, women, or at the Americans... quite frankly I'm okay with snarking at gun culture but I don't think it was. Also where the fuck is the continuity? She kicked ass with the gun last week...
- which brings me to my next point, how'd they happen to travel with the Doctor this episode? I missed the cold open
- I think I'm most disappointed with the way Eleven talked about using a gun. It could've been so interesting, and it could have tied into what he did in the previous episode but I don't really think that happened. If it did I'm sorry I missed it.
I finally figured out something that is kind of mind-boggling, though, and that is I feel more of a connection with classic Who characters (Barbara, even! And I finished her era 2 years ago) than I do to Eleven, River, Amy, or Rory.
