Doctor Who: Partners in Crime

[prillalar]

I should really have written up my Torchwood finale thoughts before I watched the BSG premiere. I should really have written up my BSG premiere thoughts before I watched the Doctor Who premiere. Too much TV this weekend!

That. Was. Awesome.

The music! So Looney Tunes throughout, beautifully frantic, and all the business at Adipose was so perfectly choreographed, everything happening at just the right moment. Beautiful. Like John Cleese silly walking in Live at the Hollywood Bowl, it almost brings tears to my eyes.

The little fat creatures were darling, like a cross between penguins and the Stay Puft Marshmallow Man. Doctor, you are lovely. Donna, you are hot and so much fun. I want to see your hats!

Of course, I can't help but think that if they hadn't interfered, all that would have happened is that a bunch of people would have lost weight. It didn't seem like it was hurting them at all.

But Rose? What the frack? I was completely shocked.

Cutest aliens ever! They were so adorable diving out of cat flaps and sliding down cars, I half expected them to reveal razor-sharp teeth and eat someone's face.

DONNA! "This is all your fault!!"

SHOW. ♥ ♥

I honestly felt a little betrayed when they didn't. It's one of the basic laws of sf -- if it's incredibly cute, and not from Earth, it eats your face. This is just the way the universe is supposed to work!

Donna was quite unexpectedly awesome. That pantomime thing through the windows -- brilliant. And I'm so glad they went out of their way to blast any possibility of Yet Another Shippy Companion into tiny bits. And then jump up and down on the bits. And then light them on fire.

I want a fat baby.

Mate believes Rose is part of an alternate TW. I believe that Rose is purposely looking for the Doctor and is using something similar to the key that her "father" from the alternate world was using before she closed the opening.

I... I think I'm gonna cry now. I missed it coz my stupid brother wouldn't stop playing Zelda. AAAAGH.
But it sounds like so much win. Do you know where I can watch it online, if such a thing is even possible?

I was surprised at the lack of face eating as well. But glad, in the end, that it did not appear.

Can't wait til next ep!

Donna was entirely made of win. Catherine Tate is freaking awesome.

Rose and Ten never really worked together for me; I don't want to see her back. Bah.

You know I love Daleks better than babies.

Ack, I'm late to this reply. Did you find a way to see the ep? I don't know about watching it online, but if you have Bittorrent, you can get the episode from mininova.org.

No, I didn't unfortunately. I don't have bittorrent either. Ah well. I'm sure it'll be repeated sometime. :D
Don'#t worry about the late reply.
