Hi, just like Irisess, I’m new here too.
Really enjoyed reading everyone’s comments. I wanted to quote and reply, but I’m not sure how to do it, and I’m actually too lazy to work it out right now. LoL.
Regarding this episode my comments are:
1) Moon = egg = I can never accept this part of the storyline. End.
2) After lots of thinking, I appreciated how the Doctor left the blowing up the moon decision to humans. I started following Doctor Who during the 9th, so I think we’ve all gotten used to the Doctor being the hero and saving the universe. So just like Clara, I totally freaked out when the Doctor up and left. But after reading the comments, I had to let go of my anger to the Doctor. This episode taught me that sooner or later, not even he has all the answers. Which I honestly think makes the story so thrilling because we get to discover new things with the Doctor, instead of hm being the know it all :p
3) Courtney was an entertaining character, but I do kinda hope she’s not the next companion. Of course, I’m just being biased for no reason now, but truthfully, even if she does become the next companion, I’m just gonna accept it anyways. And I have no idea why I’m expressing this thought out.
4) I’m kinda really hoping for Danny to join in the Tardis. Anytime soon would be great please. Although it would really make his and Clara’s teacher life reeaaalllyyy hectic.
5) Since it’s my first time here, I just gotta say how much I’m loving the 12th. There’s this new and fresh hecticness and frenzy just oozing out. The forgetful, rude and dismissive personality is very entertaining. Now, to anyone who’s reading this, keep in mind that I started following during the 9th, so I have no idea how the 1st – 8th were like. I’m just making a stand that Capaldi is an excellent Doctor contrary to what some other people think. Although now that I think about it, I don’t think those people would be on this thread. Hrm…..
Okay, enough ranting. Conclusion: minus the whole egg thing, this episode was thrilling! I’d put it 2nd after ‘Listen’, because that episode scared the daylights out of me.
And now I leave with Courtney’s line: “Is it a chicken?”
-Dil-
