Evolution of the Daleks

[mrv3000]

• Oh, man. So the Doctor offered up his life for the people behind him, which isn't unusual. But it was the *way* he did it. "DO IT! DO IT! JUST DO IT!! DO IT!" Like the round and round cars in Gridlock, the Daleks always survive when he loses everything. And it seemed like he just wanted it all to stop. :(
  
  
• Heh. Davros mention. Well, they didn't actually say his name.
  
  
• Couldn't *exactly* figure out why the Doctor was helping to create a new race. That whole reasoning is a bit fuzzy in my mind. And I thought it was a solar flare that was supposed to give power to these people, but lightning did it?
  
  
• The Doctor's really got a problem with his screwdriver this series. Must. Not. Make. Jokes.
  
  
• The red shoes! Okay, the TARDIS makes stuff. *nods*
  
  
• Yeah. Why...why've they got the humandalek chained up like a pet?
  
  
• So we wind up with human-dalek-Time-Lords? But they're killed anyway, so trying to figure out their genetic makeup is probably just a waste of time.
  
  
• And the Dalek escapes. Right. So, money on the finale?
  
  
• Overall, it was...okay. Kinda doubt I'll be needing to see this episode again. Think I was too confused by motivations, and the insta-"humanity is wonderful and we must give up our war-like ways!" by the humandalek was a bit trite - have seen that good old getting a taste of humanity thing in sci-fi so many times before.

Ryan Carnes = Lazlo, aka. pig boy.

Hmm. IMDB has him as "Elliot." Was it Elliot Lazlo? Oh! Maybe Lazlo Elliot? Weird. But anyway, he was a cutie at the beginning, wasn't he? But then spent the rest of the episode under makeup.

Maybe part of it is that I'm a bit fed up of the Daleks now. They've just been a bit too present over the last three years!

Yeah, even though I've got this thing with Daleks (they're cute! they roll! *SQUISHES*), I was sorta hoping this would be the end. But I guess that's what finales are for.

Did they reapear this much during the classic series?

I think they were a bit more spread out, but it's hard to tell - I've been skipping around a lot.

Your Dalek love is odd and disturbing! They're not squishy! :P

Oh! And I've just remembered the Doctor's "Tullulah with 2 L's and a H." loved that! Don't know why but I did.
