I sat at my computer for two straight hours before I had to go to work hoping to download the episode. Of course, it did not pop up in time, so I had to wait excruciatingly slow hours until I was home from work and could download it and watch it.
I'll actually not abuse capslock this week how's that?? But still, no really deep thoughts here.
I can't even remember everything I wanted to write about. I guess I'll just start with the obvious.
- Rose and New Doctor. I was spoiled for it. I had went on youtube to see if the episode had popped up there. Parts of it had. That final scene between them was one of them, and of course, since I have no self control, I had to watch. Back to when I saw it in context...*sigh* My shipper heart leaped with joy when they kissed! I am happy that Rose gets to live her life out with the Doctor - a human Doctor with who she can grow old. I mean, Billie Piper isn't coming back permanently to the show, so obviously, she couldn't go off and live happily ever after with the Doctor. This is the only way for it to be if she's going to be with the Doctor. I know Rose wasn't completely happy with the decision and especially without it being in her control, but I think once she does see that he has the same memories as her Doctor, she'll come around a bit. It'll be just like when he first regenerated. The one thing that kind of upset me though was that the Doctor didn't seem upset that she was kissing this other guy, and it didn't seem very hard for him to just leave her. He had missed her. Shouldn't he be sadder to leave her behind again?
- Loved the hug between the Doctor and Rose at the beginning.
- Mickey and Jackie. I missed you so much!!! And the Doctor not letting Jackie touch anything? Hilarious! And Jackie joking that she named her son Doctor? Brilliant!
- Jack, I love you. And I love how everyone wanted to hug you. I want to hug you too. Though it kind of sucks that the whole "He can't die" bit was never explained to Rose.
- Haha. Gwen Cooper in the 18th century reference. Awesome!
- I love how Rose thinks Martha is great! Perfect.
- K-9!
- Loved the whole family touch. The Doctor really does have a lot of people surrounding him who truly love him and that he would die for. Yet he once again ends up alone. So sad.
-DoctorDonna. Loved it. And then, it went and broke my heart. Donna. La pauvre. I'm so sad for her. She saved the world, and she can't even remember it. She was brilliant (as the Doctor would say) and has no idea. It's just so heartbreaking. *sniff*
I know that there's a lot more to be said. But I just can't think of it at the moment. My mind is on overload right now. Wow. Just wow. Unbelievable episode.
And if someone could make me an icon of the New Doctor/Rose kiss, I would love you forever.
