in praise of the first half of utopia

[tlr3]

i'm about tired of seeing people complain about the beginning of utopia. (spoilers for the ep. here.)

the basic complaints seem to be that it's a boring quarry, a familiar sci-fi set-up, too planet zog, etc. the first problem with this is that anyone who's watched the latter half of series 1, or torchwood, is only paying attention to all of that a

I have to agree with you, I am sick of the complaining too.

So am I. Hell, I didn't even know people were dissatisfied with this one until I read some posts linked on whodaily. People really blow my mind sometimes.

They get on my wick, just dont bloody watch it if it bugs you so much, you know what I mean? Shesh!

[nummymuffin]

Haha, I know exactly what you mean. I thought I'd read it all until tonight when I actually read someone saying they don't care for all the science fiction stuff, not impressed with the Master and the episode was eh. Um, why bother? Seriously. Why bother at all? I'd never watch a show I have so little interest in, let alone post about it in the ol' ElJay.

I swear, I had to clean my brains off the wall after that one.

People confuse me... MASSIVELY sometimes. It sort of confirms for me why I so rarely post in Doctor Who community posts outside of icons.

Some people are only happy when they're complaining

Doesn't like the sci fi stuff?! Flipping hell fire it's about a time traveller, dumboid!
