Omg that quote. ;___;
That led into mood whiplash territory for me. I got all wide-eyed while my sisters will probably be like LOL FUNNY.

Heck yes Amy is awesome. So why is she being retconned to try and jump the Doctor? D: I was like LOL and then I thought about it for more than three seconds. It was wandering into DO NOT WANT territory fairly fast.

Eleven's grown on me. A LOT. Omg. I went from I H8 U after hearing about casting to mellowing out and being indifferent to finally accepting him as the Doctor after the line about "There's one thing you should know about me. I'll always be a madman with a crazy box." or something like that. And episode two was pretty awesome.

Vampirish beings + Venice + Amy undercover? Yes plzkthx.

All last week it was bugging me that people thought it was so funny the Doctor was nervous around River. Because all people ever see is dating. Probably he's nervous because the woman killed herself for him, in front of him, after handcuffing him in place so he had to watch and then hear her data ghost repeating her last words to him over and over until he could escape. It's not cute.

So when she jokes about the handcuffs, I was all SHE REALLY JUST SAID THAT WTH THAT'S SO MESSED UP.

I don't think Amy's exactly being retconned, since we saw her leering at him right from her first episode. This was always the plan, unfortunately.

I went through pretty much the same process with Eleven, except that it took until The Time of Angels for me to decide he was the Doctor.

Yeaaah. I'm guessing by now a lot of people forgot the ending to the Library episodes. Or just didn't relate the two events for some reason. And I think I love Eleven's reactions to her.

And her joking about it isn't her fault, she doesn't realize the impact of what she's saying. I think it must be hard to write for her well without contradicting what she's said before about him.

Sigh. Amy, I like you. Don't go changing that.

It's not River's fault. I'm just seriously weirded out that Moffat thought that would be a good thing to have her say there.
