Loved the ending this week.

Now let's go save Pond!!
(Also, check out the preview on the official site. ;) )

The ending was the highpoint of the whole two parter.

Are you telling me that The Doctor's Wife got compressed into one episode to make room for this crap!?

EVERYONE in the last two episodes was a reactionary moron. Even The Doctor seemed disinterested by it all. That's to say nothing of the plotholes. Which Doctor exactly had the Sonic? What happened to the shuttle from the mainland? What possible reason did the Gangers have to immediately be sure that the unconscious Doctor was "one of them".

Ugh.

Episodes where people set up their characters and then heel-face-turn and become moronic charicatures of themselves (I'm looking at you, Jen) irritate me an awdul lot.

Was this whole craptacular two parter solely there to set up the season premiere and to stop the Doctor from ending every episode with the same scene (Scanning Amy AGAIN)? Actually, thank goodness on that point - that was getting old.

The Doctor's Wife should have been prioritised as a two parter over this dreck. It's crapness actually makes me care less for what is very likely the awesomeness to come.

Also, was I the only one thinking "Avatar"? Particularaly in the first part. I think the only thing that made the second part interesting was the fact that there was another Doctor, and the ending.

The Doctor's Wife defintaly should have been a two parter instead of this.

The Prequel for episode 7 is better than this last two parter has been. xD

Grrr....I wish they would release the damned thing on iTunes already

Well that was interesting, had a feeling about who River really was, and turned out to be right

but still so many questions

Right there with ya, Jb! My favourite episode so far, I think. Loved it.

Just read the spoilers and I was right, but I was wrong about how she's a Time Lord...

And GOD DAMN Why are they doing the fracking WAIT ONE WEEK IN AMERICA thing again!!! This pisses me off

EDITED TO GET RID OF THE F BOMB

That was fun

Not quite as epic as they were going for, but close. I just can't believe The Doctor is as attached to Amy as he was to Rose or even Donna. Smith's Doctor is a bit more aloof with his companions, probably on foot of what happened to Donna. To suddenly be referring to them as "people I love" rings a little forced. They seem more like "People I keep around".

I'd love to have found out more about patchy.

The gay jokes were laid on thick in this one, luckily, they were hilarious. I had to pause it after the thin-fat-gay-married-anglican-marines gag to have a good belly laugh. Also, I'm pretty sure this has opened up a whole new fetish market: Silurian tongues.

I can't say I was pleased to see a reference to the turdfest that was Victory Of The Daleks, though it was light enough to be passable.

I was just wondering... where was captain Jack in all of this? What did the Doc do for all these people? Are these references (in large part) to extended universe stories?

Also: Next episode's title - unorthodox but ballsy!

Don't rub it in

it might get ugly LOL j/p.

It just pisses me off that they've been airing it the same night it airs in UK...and now they're doing the entire "oh you have to wait" thing again. I'm sure a lot of us Americans agree!

Vortex · « **Reply #751 on:** June 08, 2011, 03:01:35 PM »

Series 7 and a Christmas Special have been confirmed, along with Matt Smith.

Nice. Anyone know when the mid-season hiatus is due to end?

I've heard september but i'm not quite sure!

Vortex · « **Reply #754 on:** June 20, 2011, 02:34:33 AM »

I'm pretty sure it's September.

So, who else heard the "good" news? No full series next year.

That is good news. Means the Moff can focus on Sherlock, which was a far better series than his destruction of Dr Who.

I actually happen to be one of those who likes Moff's Who, sorry Limey

. HOPEFULLY he can convince the Beeb to stop this AMerica HAS to wait one week thing...because I honestly will have to warez it if they do make us wait...sorry for mentioning it but GAWD that pissed me off royally that I had to wait for the last two episodes.

He says on Twitter that it has nothing to do with Sherlock. And apart from the Flesh episodes, I think this series has been great so far.
