Doctor Who Story 212 – The Pandorica Opens/The Big Bang

The Pandorica Opens River! Yay! Didn’t think I’ve see Liz X again. I like River as Cleopatra. Yar, there be Cybermen! It’s Rory! Because obviously it is, because Doctor Who can’t keep anyone dead. Their deus ex machina of Rory’s appearance is horrible and lazy. But I’m glad he’s back. Amy’s happy to see her dead fiancé, who she forgot about. Why doesn’t River know who Rory is? It’s her dad, she set them up as Mel. The Big Bang Oh it’s wee Amelia Pond! Oh, the Doctor’s wearing a fez. I forgot Amy was dead, and I only watched part one a few hours ago. Rory waiting 2000 years… Read More »Doctor Who Story 212 – The Pandorica Opens/The Big Bang

Doctor Who Story 211 – The Lodger

I love this episode. A guy who never wants to go anywhere, huh? I love so much how silly Matt Smith is in this episode. His body work is fantastic. The head bang is one of the best moments in all Doctor Who history The cheek kisses! The back of his soccer costume is 11!

Doctor Who Story 210 – Vincent and the Doctor

Well, I guess I’m going to be crying soon. This is one of my favourite Doctor Who episodes. The Doctor assuming the monster is evil by only seeing its face is not cool. Not cool, Doc. I like Vincent and Amy flirting. Doctor Who rarely discusses depression, rightfully so, it is a kids’ show, but maybe they should more? The echoing of Vincent Van Gogh’s depression with Amy’s sadness over the loss of Rory is excellent. “I’m not the marrying type.”

Doctor Who Story 209 – The Hungry Earth/Cold Blood

The Hungry Earth Doctor Who loves stories about digging holes. Someone saying “None of your business” to the Doctor who just wanders in asking random questions. I like that this episode takes place in the past, but it’s 10 years in the future for Rory and Amy. I like people kissing, but don’t kiss your coworkers. Cold Blood I forgot all about Rory being shot. I remember that he disappeared in the crack in the wall, but I forgot about him being shot. Amy forgetting Rory is horrible. So much about this episode I really love, but it doesn’t come together as a memorable episode. It’s about Humanity’s worst, and… Read More »Doctor Who Story 209 – The Hungry Earth/Cold Blood

Doctor Who Story 208 – Amy’s Choice

“Five years later and you haven’t changed a bit, except for aging.” Rory needs to cut off that ponytail. Wow, that was terrible.

Doctor Who Story 207 – The Vampires of Venice

Rory is wearing a stupid tshirt from his bachelor party. I recently walked by a woman wearing a shirt that says “I Do Team” or something like that. Made me think how horrible our society is that we make clothing for one wear only. HAHAHA! The Doctor, the cake, telling Rory that Amy tried to kiss him, and he’s a lucky man, she’s a great kisser. I love this show so much. Oh great a plague episode. It’s more fun when we’re in a plague ourselves. Amy’s a bit mean to Rory. My wife makes a good point. Amy is a stripper, so Rory should be less nervous about a… Read More »Doctor Who Story 207 – The Vampires of Venice

Doctor Who Story 206 – The Time of Angels/Flesh and Stone

The Time of Angels River’s great. Sulky Doctor because River is better than him is great. I forgot how great this episode was because I was focused on how bad the story is. See, and the video clip moving is dumb, but the interactions between the Doctor and Amy, River and the Doctor, Amy and River are all so good. The Doctor is on Virginia Woolf’s bowling team? Hmm, she died in 1941, a lot later than I would have thought. Amy’s hand turning to stone. Is that a reference to the Pompeii episode she was in? The best part of this story is truly the relationship of those three… Read More »Doctor Who Story 206 – The Time of Angels/Flesh and Stone

Doctor Who Story 205 – Victory of the Daleks

That’s not John Lithgow. “Would you care for some tea?” Once again Amy is proving herself to be more intelligent than any previous Nu Who companions. The British bombers in space yelling “tally ho” is amazing. This is the most British show there is. What’s the translation of rels to seconds? This is why Google exists. “A rel was approximately 1.2 seconds.” Amy really shines through in this episode. It’s really obvious why she’s my favourite companion of the modern era. Here’s some more Lithgow.

Doctor Who Story 204 – The Beast Below

What adult doesn’t think this education system is creepy as fuck? The Doctor is such a liar, but I like this intro to adventures with him. I’ve never loved this episode, but I certainly love Matt Smith and Karen Gillan. The Doctor pushing off that he’s the last of his species with, “Long day, bad day” is prefect. Close your mouths! They always went on about how Rose was brilliant, but I think they show Amy’s smarts.

Doctor Who Story 203 – The Eleventh Hour

Hate the new logo, but the rest of the opening credits is an upgrade… though the old logo sucked, too. Amy praying to Santa is great. I like that the TARDIS has a swimming pool in the library. Matt Smith is great. The whole eating scene is such a great scene for the wackiness and wonderfulness that is Matt Smith. The Doctor leaving for “five minutes” and Amelia’s reply of “people always say that” is heartbreaking. And now she’s packing a bag to run off with the Doctor. Rory! Olivia Colman! Oscar winner, Olivia Colman! Amy is great! This doctor needs to listen to her staff. “Do I just have… Read More »Doctor Who Story 203 – The Eleventh Hour
