Still catching up with the internet. I see that The Waters of Mars has won the Hugo, which pleases me. It definitely was the best of the year-of-interruption specials, and not just because of the last ten minutes.

I wonder what was behind Turn Left being the nomination. Did they put Midnight up for consideration? I can't imagine why they wouldn't have. If there was anything else from that season really, really deserving of being put up, it was Fires of Pompeii. Definitely not Turn Left (which I don't froth at but I definitely consider one of the weaker outings of s4, which had an overall strong first two-thirds before sort of deflating), but I really don't see how after Midnight anything else would even have looked like an option.

Yay for Waters of Mars, though! I definitely approve of that winning.

Yesssss. I was totally excited to see the little snippet of Eleven and Sarah, but there was also a little brain static of "hey, you don't look like David--oh, wait."

AND JO HEAD YES. I think I was even more excited about that. Partly because of the aforementioned thing, but mostly because I've seen the Doctor recently, and the Doctor in general and Sarah relatively recently, but Jo's been gone for so so long. <3

No idea what was put up for consideration, because I so agree with you - Fires of Pompeii before Turn Left, and Midnight before both.

My brain and your brain were in tune for that. :)

And Jooooooo!
