The Dollhouse episode didn't seem very original to me. I could swear I've seen that same story before somewhere else. At any rate, the dolls were sufficiently creepy, and it was a big departure from most of the recent Doctor Who episodes. I liked the fact that this episode could have easily been about Tennet's Doctor with Rose & Mickey in tow. Style- wise I liked that throw back a little. It was an enjoyable one. However, continuity wise it seemed a little wonky as my 10 year old daughter pointed out- Amy and Rory seemed pretty calm for parents missing their baby. It did seem like the episode should have played earlier in series 6. Fun all the same.

That was one sta-range episode. I like the change in dynamic at the end, though. How this all spins back to the start of the season should be interesting.

Man, looks like 2012 is going to be a long one for Doctor Who. No season 7 until Autumn. So Christmas episode (and an Easter episode?) aside, we're going to be waiting almost a full year for new Who.

Hopefully the longer wait will make for some better episodes! (I haven't liked this season much.) And maybe some cool multi-Doctor anniversary episodes???

Yeah, I haven't been blown away by the second half of season 6.

I've finally caught up on this part of the season. I actually got a chuckle out of the Kill Hitler episode, and agree that the others were okay. The hotel episode had so much potential, but didn't pay off.
I'm interested to see how they do without Amy and Rory, however, I will miss looking at Amy. |

That seemed awfully light for the penultimate episode. Must be some heavy shit next week.

I think I'm on ep 3 and I think Tennant is now my favorite DR. He really grew into the role. This 3rd Doc has impressed me very little. He reminds me of George McFly...

Tennant is my favorite doctor as well. I also really like Baker, Pertwee, Troughten, McGann, and Eccleston. It's pretty close for me. There are some episodes where I'm feeling that Matt Smith is possibly the best, but then there are those where he seems like the worst. The Smith era has been the most extremely uneven era of any of the Doctors. |

You know... I kind of liked the Closing Time episode with Craig. It was goofy as you can get, but the dynamic of the Doctor with just the one companion really made it about the Doctor again. Which I thought was quite refreshing. It wasn't an amazing episode by any means, but an enjoyable one. I like the Doctor without Rory and Amy. I hope we get more of that going forward.

I didn't think i was going to like Matt Smith, but he pretty much sold me with his first episode (reeruned "geronimo" aside). Amy Pond grew on me. Rory I could still do without. As far as other doctors go, Tennet and Baker are my favorites. I seem to be the only one, but I couldn't stand Eccleston, and don't mind a bit that he left. |
