Doctor Whooooooo

Oh dear. :D And I may have talked about the end of S2.



Yeah, knew there was going to be almost *no* Doctor or Rose in this ep and so really didn't care about spoilers. It's kind of like checking out spoilers for a clips episode. Who the hell cares?

Apparently you either really love it or really hate it. Basically conversations go something like this:

"Dude, that was a piece of shit."

"No, it was *brilliant*! You just don't see the genius behind it!"

And so on. Kinda amusing since people are starting to turn on each other for voicing their own opinions. The "you suck for feeling that way and I am so much better for feeling my way" nonsense.

Me? Obviously I haven't seen it so who knows yet. I'll probably end up loving it since I have such low expectations at the moment. But it'll have to do more than that old self-parody and/or break-down-the-4th-wall concept which has been done *so* many times before. Shoot, I *just* finished watching the X-Files episode Post-Modern Prometheus. "I want to talk to the writer!" Classic. But it makes me sorta sad knowing that BP's on her way out to have a filler ep like this in there.

*sigh*

Wandered over to OG to check out the ep boomage and they have BP's most likely replacement on the News page. In just a matter of days I've gone from absolute undying love for Doctor Who to really wanting this series to be over so I can be done with it all. Guess that makes me one of those bitter shippers, eh? Just, no love at the moment. Really none at all.

ETA: Have seen it now and thoughts are here.

*Huuuuuuuuugs*

Yeah, I can't believe there's only 3 more episodes. Bloomin' 'eck, mate.

It wasn't too bad an episode, to be honest. A bit silly, but sad as well. I kinda liked it. :)

I don't expect I'll *hate* it. I mean, it'd have to be on Rob Schneider levels to get me to that hate place.

put it this way for 30 mins, i was sitting there going "wtf is this shite"

a few bit are cool, a few bits funny (Though I would not expect less from Peter kay) the monster is pretty original, but bits are *very* predicable.

I have to say it wasnt a Doctor who ep to me.

Oh dear. Maybe I'll just try and find the five mintues that *do* have the Doctor and Rose...

I've seen a lot of people say that. Shame, really.

It gets much better when you watch the Confidential about it too :)

or at least it did for me *scratches head* but then again I kinda liked the ep as well.

*wanders off*

and I am going to be completely shallow for a minutes and say how much I loved Rose's hair in that ep. It was awesome.

and the first part of the ep so reminded me of a Benny Hill episode *g*

The first part or the braids?

both *g*

but particularly the braids. I love them!!

Yeah, they actually worked on her - of course, not much doesn't. :D

I have to say I'm not a fan when her hair is straight - it makes her look all old and something. I much prefer the curly style or when it's in braids (especially the way she had it in the Christmas Invasion that looked wicked)
