Worse than everybody's aunt...
Apr. 19th, 2010 12:15 amah. See, I got distracted before I could write a whole post on how utterly fabulous new new Who has turned out to be for the first two eps. And it was, utterly fabulous, because Stephen Moffat is a genius, and the dialogue was so good I had to watch it with subtitles on just to catch every nuance...
And then the 3rd ep happened. Frankly, Mark Gatiss can just sod off, because the plotting was shockingly, shark-jumpingly awful. Honestly. Timeframes got mentioned three times and then promptly ignored, somebody mentioned maybe they could invent theoretical WW2-era space travel one minute and the next second adapted spitfires were circling the moon... honestly?! Also, daleks now come in all the colours of the ipod range, so, like, whatever. It was horrifically daft, and if it hadn't been for the Matt&Karen Show, I would have switched the bloody thing off in a huff.
But you have to love Matt being freakily alien-eccentric-professor-stylee Doctor. And Karen being all feisty and Scottish ("Oi, Churchill!" was pushing it a teeny bit tho....).
