NuWho...

tonight is a new episode of Doctor Who.

and the tv summary description makes me waver and have doubts about viewing it. here's why:

As you now (presumably) know, this is one of this series' 'misleading titles' - like The Doctor's Wife.

so it seems...like calling the first Amy episode Fish Fingers and Custard (or this ep could be called that)

[lil_shepherd]

I am still trying to work out how the "fish fingers and custard" fits into this one...

[rodlox]

maybe as a happy memory tied to regeneration and healing and friendship?

(preceeded by all that "guilt - lots of guilt, guilt - is there anyone in teh universe I haven't screwed up)...and a bit of similarity to the end of the Year That Never Was, when everyone believed in the Doctor, and that helped heal him.

I'm thinking aloud by this point. need to stop that.

EDIT: that or, it was part of his attempt to get the automated program to display humanity. (why he'd want that, is another question entirely - or is it?)

It was worth watching. Though I only got about a third of it.

[rodlox]

i think I understand what's going on in the ep...not entirely sure, but if i can be of any help, (or discussing), let me know.

[rodlox]

just saw it...its heavily River-centric. (very very little Hitler - he's more a plot device than anything else...and never did I think I would say that about Hitler)

also has shout-outs to the first Amy Pond episode.
