The only one that hit me there was the lone one looking in the mirror. Well, and the one in the cooling pipes...I wept there.
> Roses reaction to Mickey staying certianly has the potential to allow for her to ease up on her possesiveness of the Doctor and brood for Mickey. Or one can hope so anyway.
Oh, absolutely. It was as if she knew she'd always have him to fall back on...and now, he's gone too.
> Why is it bad juju for Rose to look up Pete (and Jackie) but it's perfectly acceptable for Mickey to stay behind and take care of Rickey's gran?
It's a good point.
> The cliffhanger resolve was almost laughable.
Yep, mentioned that. And I think if the episode had aired as a 90 minute piece, it'd have not been so bad, while at the sae time continuing to make light of 'the last TARDIS in the universe is extinct' pathos of part 1.
> And the whole traveling like we did is impossible. It was a fluke, but flukes happen, and it could happen again. i dont' know. It was just a bit of a let down.
I can see that. There are rumours that Mickey will be back in the final 2-parter, but I don't know what they are based on.
