Dr. Who

[Kheldarson]

It made me cry. Mostly for that last scene.

As for the prevention...we don't know what went on through Amy's head the past 36 years. We're given broad generalization (ie survival is paramount, don't trust the Doctor, still misses Rory), but no specifics. We know that she was told she would refuse the help later on. So I can see why it works, but it's hard to give the proper characterization in the 15-20 minutes they had for it.

Jester - don't know what cable company you have there...but we have Bright House Networks and though they don't seem to mess with the Doctor Who Insiders, they do tend to put local interest commercials over some less local/national spots and they will often be out of sync, cutting into the middle of other commercials. It's extremely annoying.

[Jester]

Amusingly, when I watched a replay of the episode later, the Insider was just fine. But it seems to happen a lot on the first runs, as this is not the first time it has happened to me. (I always DVR the first runs.)

[It's me]

I really liked this episode, for a few reasons reasons...

First, it gave Karen Gillan a chance to really show off her acting skills...

Second, it dealt with the question I am sure a lot of us sometimes ask: If you could reset your life to an earlier age, would you do it?

And finally it gave us another glimpse of who the Doctor really is... the sorts of decsions he's had to make over the centuries, the burdens he has to carry. I wonder what this is going to do to his friendship with Amy and Rory.

OK, I was kind of blindsided by the ending of "The God Complex" episode that aired here on BBC America a few hours ago...and I'm feeling a bit bummed. Anyone else??

I got a bit teary from it, actually. I mean, even though I understand *why* The Doctor parted ways with Amy and Rory (Spoilers!), it still made me sad to see it happen.

Also, yay! Craig is back next week. Am I the only one happy about this?

[BeenThereDoneThat]

Craig is a fun character, so maybe next week's episode will bring some much needed comic relief.

I was shocked! Totally didn't see it coming. Not sure how I feel about it though.

Yeah, Karen kicked ass in that episode...

however, as someone who, if I could have but one assurance on how things would turn out (which Amy had) I would jump on the chance to rewrite my history in a heartbeat.

ETA- anyone else here watch so much BBC that the one time they have an American on that show it sounds to you like he has a funny accent (obviously the question is aimed at my fellow Yanks on the board, since I suppose an American accent would normally sound just a weird to a Brit as theirs does to us).

It is a very fun episode. I little light on the menace, but Craig is fun, as is the Doctor working in a toyshop.

Oh, and you find out who is in the space suit.

This season of Dr. Who has been alright. The thing that is missing, to me, is that they have spent too much time on Earth (or dealing with an Earth-based issue).

Below is one of my favorite scenes from this season:

What is your favorite scene? (Would you like me to repeat the question?)

I know that next week, no matter what, there is going to be a massive screw to the audience.
BBC has already announced a season 7.
So, either the Doctor dies and season 7 was just a tease.
Or, the Doctor finds a way at the last minute to save his life which we have already had established can't be done (fixed points in time can't change, that has been common through at least all of the 6 seasons of the 2005 reboot).

I had a couple of thoughts to combat this, but, at least one would piss off a whole lot of people and I don't know how to hide spoilers on here in case anyone hasn't seen the episode with Craig.

I've never had it happen that an American accent starts sounding odd, but I have snapped into a place where an English accent sounds normal, and I can pick out a Welsh accent no problem. Normally, while I can tell it's different if someone points it out to me, I have trouble distinguishing Welsh from English.

I know that next week, no matter what, there is going to be a massive screw to the audience.

OK, there is NO WAY they're just going to end the show, it's way too popular, and they just gave the Doctor a whole bunch of extra regenerations. I'm almost sure that Stephen Moffat can pull this off in a way that doesn't get me angry, either.

It is going to be some wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey stuff that is going to save the Doctor and leave us going "WTF, Moffat?"
