I didn't have much respect for you lot before but I've got none at all now. I think you'd watch and enjoy literally anything.
This episode was a disaster. There was no tension whatsoever. Moffat creates a secret and then dribbles it out bit by bit across the course of the episode. There's no narrative drive, no clash of character, no twists of plot, no muscle, no grit, no conflict. It just gets revealed very slowly whilst characters make embarrassing jokes. It's not drama in any sense, it's spectacle.
'The Impossible Girl?' I thought it was the 'Impossible Astronaut'? 'The Soufflé Girl' - isn't it 'The Girl Who Waited'? (Amy) - or was the boy who waited (Rory) or the last centurian?
An essential quality of storytelling is PERMANENCE. An exam is passed, a car crashes, someone dies. In Moffat it's just some swirly soup that we go in and out of. A character dies and then lives. The universe is destroyed then restored, forgotten, remembered.
This is garbage. A Sontaran butler, some Sarah Walters lesbian victoriana and a f**king Silurian in mourning. If you think this is good you've lost your minds. A 'conference call' that takes place in a dream, more Riversong, more 'spoilers' more calling the Doctor 'Doctor Who', more reckless myth-making about the Doctor's past - who gave Moffat the right to create all this garbage about secrets? The last of the timelords and the timewar was bad enough but now we have a f**king Galifreyan soap.
Unbelievable.
Utter shit.
Yup. And no one has mentioned the name of the doctor which opened the doors. So no one cares. for me it might have been Biege. Not sure. Might rew
