Surprised there wasn't a 50th anniversary post for Doctor Who!
What was everyone's thoughts on the show?
I'll avoid spoilers for this first post, but I expect there will be plenty of spoilers to come.
My thoughts:
A great episode that is a fitting 50th anniversary. The Doctors worked well together and it was nice seeing the back-and-forth between the three. We got to see more of the Time War than ever before, which was nice, and (in my opinion) the best performance of Rose Tyler in the 2 years she was a companion + all the extra episodes she appeared in.
I will say that it still feels emotionally disconnected (has been for a while), and the one scene where there was a connection I had ruined by the rubbish BBC America pre-show. I seriously don't understand how they thought it would be a good idea to have spoilers in a pre-show, but whatever. ...jerkfaces.
I enjoyed Clara's contribution (she's usually good, best companion since Donna in my opinion) and the timey-wimey bits were fantastic as well.
It was almost perfect. It could have been a lot better, seemingly easily, but I can't really complain about too much in the show.
