OH WEST WING. YOU KEEP GIVING ME THINGS THAT I WANT AND YET STILL HURTING MY SOULLLLLLLLLLLL. And the pilot episode! You're rerunning the pilot next week! *pets you*
Of course after listening to Steven Moffat it makes sense, but hey, shouldn't it make sense BEFORE we hear from him?
Wait! Please explain! Or is it worth listening to? I stopped listening to the podcast things after 'Tooth & Claw' because with Russel T they're just... not funny.
Totally forgot the whole Rose-brain-compatibility thing.
Also, what is Deep Space 10 doing being called "SS Madame de Pompadour"? Like, EH??? I think she's a great historical figure, I really do, but shouldn't you be naming theaters after her rather than a largely ugly and utilitarian space station?
I don't actually remember much from the commentary since it was, like, 3AM and my brain was in overload from new episode + Confidential + that. Mainly it was for the whole effect and because of that point at the end when the Doctor is swinging around to the ship for the last time and Reinette goes "Wait!" and the Doctor gets sad? Apparently that's the "moment" when he realizes he's in "love." I DON'T BUY IT but whatev.
BUT SRSLY RE: SHIP NAME. Honestly, it would have been way cooler if it was "SS Torchwood."

I'm torn! Because I did buy it, which doesn't help because I didn't like it and it just made me vexed at him and the show. And I know the episode order always gets tossed around hacky-sack style, but this whole two-girlfriends-in-a-row thing: not good.
And the ship name. SERIOUSLY. I think "SS Torchwood" would have kicked SO much ass.
So, I could be wrong, but I just assumed they wanted her kidneys or something, if only because they still want Reinette's brain after they have the chance to nick Rose's. Also, she's not compatible, because it's not about what's in the brain, it's just about being called Madame de Pompadour.
