You watched it. You can't unwatch it.

I'd post about 24, but I'm too busy hitting my head. So on to some Doctor Who.

The Rescue (One, Ian, Barbara, Vicki)

Wow, just not a whole lot to say about this episode. Its whole point was to get Vicki on board. Its plot seemed to revolve around the Doctor's naps. When he wasn't napping, he was talking about napping. I'd love to say he was going through a "fuck you all" phase, but no. He was really, really interested in napping. At least there was a wee bit of sweetness in him being sad about Susan. Between naps. Oh, and there was a guy pretending to be an alien so that when he and Vicki were rescued, he wouldn't be blamed for killing people. But as this was not nap-related, I sorta tuned it out.



The Creature from the Pit (Four, Romana, K-9)

• Got a chuckle out of Romana hauling out some of the Doctor's pack-ratting crap, to which he protested that he doesn't keep junk. :D "What could you possibly do with the old jawbone of an ass?" "Don't be a Philistine." Ha!
  
  
• I'm sorry, but I just don't like this actor doing K-9. It sounds wrong. (Although the Doctor and K-9 reading a book together - so cute!!)
  
  
• Bwah! The Doctor's unplugged the communicator that links up to Gallifrey. Distress calls? Screw 'em! :D
  
  
• The Doctor's getting beaten on by moss balls - "Romana? Would you come here a minute, please?" *snickers*
  
  
• "Well, to be fair I did have a couple of gadgets which he probably didn't, like a teaspoon and an open mind." Heh heh.
  
  
• The Doctor flinging himself down into the pit was very familiar. ;)
  
  
• Um, wow....
  
  
  O_O
  
  
• The Doctor talked about being born under the...something sign. "Crossed computers?" Anyway, it was the symbol for the maternity ward on Gallifrey. Okay, I'm being nerdy in finding interesting *anything* with a hint of the Doctor's past. "Maternity ward" to me says NOT LOOMS. :D Oh sure, they *could* have named the loom factory the "maternity ward," but *why*? It'd be rather ridiculous to use a term like 'maternity' if it was something that only applied to lower species. Yes, I'm a total dork.
  
  
• The episode went on for about 20 minutes too long. Getting the creature out of the pit should have been the end of it, but instead there was a tacked-on plot of "the world will end in 24 hours!"
