The Night of the Doctor

Almost all of y'all have probably seen this, but if you haven't, you should REALLY watch "The Night of the Doctor," the mini-episode prequel to the 50th anniversary special.  (If you are working phenomenally hard to avoid spoilers and haven't watched the trailer or anything, save this mini-episode until just before you watch the main episode.

(Hello - here via a link from who_daily) I think you've pretty much summarized my feelings pretty well. I still have hopes that the identity of Hurt's Doctor and the Time War elements will be resolved in some elegant and satisfying way, but I don't have a lot of confidence.

On the other hand, I've pretty much been running around going, "OMG, EIGHT!!!" continuously for the past day.

Hello there. I'm glad you agree! At this point I have no idea whether the show will make me delighted, angry, or just frustrated.

This little webisode was made of pure delight. I have been gushing about it to anyone who will listen. EIGHT!!!!!! I've also been super happy to see the outpouring of fandom love for him.

(Your icon is kind of perfect for right now. Eight leans in from the edge, as if to say "hi guys! Remember me?")

I both agree and disagree with your thoughts on it

Showing up late to the party just to say that I agree. Especially about the Rose bit, but also about having liked the idea of Eight being the Doctor in the war, and being disappointed that it wasn't him.
