Burn with me

Dude. 42. Awesome :)

The Doctor was lovely, the guest stars were likeable and I'll miss one or two of them, my love for Martha continues to grow like a well tended rhubarb plant, and I didn't even mind the complete disregards for the laws of physics. My only slight gripe was that as always the scriptwriters sold us on the whole 'ZOMG WE ARE GOING TO DIE UNLESS WE ACT NOW NOW NOW' and then proceeded to delay rather important actions so that Character A could have a semi-decent heart-to-heart with Character B as the seconds ticked by. But details details. Overall it was a cracking ep, good return to form, and yet again a possible nod to The Casting Spoiler That Can Not Be Named - WHEEEEEE! =)

Uh oh. Our household begs to differ. *g* I have a physicist husband who winced and closed his eyes through most of it, and declared "God, L, Sam and Dean are better than this crap" - which is pretty major for him.

Katie just shrugged and said "Mid-season filler ep, right Mum?" - I love my little fangirl.

I didn't buy it at all. It reminded me of the Satan Pit, which I hated utterly, so I suppose I was biased. However, I did love the confidential and all the model space ships. And next week's ep looks brilliant. *g*

Hehe, the last film I saw was Sunshine and if you thought the physics of DW were bad, trust me they pale to nothing in comparision with that film. Though to be fair it was still a good hour or so of tense entertainment, and the sun was very pretty :) In any case, I think that trained me up a bit in the whole Suspension of Belief that was required for this ep, plus it was nice to see a Humanity Vs. Sun scenario which didn't end with every cast member dying horribly. Though I have to say that the suit did remind of Satan Pit, which like you I was utterly bored by, but this time time we had Martha, no bad make-up, and more importantly I was still on a Fangirl Squee High following hte lovely clip of Barrowman/Jack last night =)
