tencrushIn Russell's world, bumsex with Russell Tovey pretty much fixes all your emo manpain, no matter how vast, yeah?
That's pretty faily right there. Not as faily as that thing with Martha and you know who, but still pretty fucking offensively faily. As was that thing with Donna. Wow, that's a lot of fucking fail to heap upon an awful lot of companions.
DON'T LET THE DOOR HIT YOUR ASS RUSSELL.
Also, did Simm just disappear, never to be mentioned again, or did it just seem that way?

Or should I just count it up as continuity-fail?

Date: 2010-01-01 08:18 pm (UTC)Ahhh..I do look forward to seeing this. So, they didn't show the regeneration and the Doctor was alone when this happened. I'm sure I'll be crying when I do watch. I'm a very emotional person. :-)

Date: 2010-01-01 08:26 pm (UTC)It's like you could hear him screaming from the hilltops. I AM RUSSELL T DAVIES. THIS IS WHAT I DID. AM I NOT AWESOME? And the universal reply was.."Oh sure...Hey, look! It's the new guy!" History won't be kind to this episode. In the greater context of DW I doubt this will go down well. Rusty never did understand context.
Still love Simm's Master - yes, even after that - so I'm happy he can come back in the Moffat era. I prefer the continuity of the Master. He shouldn't change just because the Doctor does. I'm hoping Moffat might reign him in a bit, though.
Honestly, I thought the Alonso/Jack at the Cantina thing was cute. Jack moves on, and always has. Ianto was never his one true love, and that never bothered me. He's been around 1,000s of years now. I would imagine he deals with that kind of loss pretty well at this point. Didn't need the scene, but the scene on its own didn't bug me. (Plus, I think someone on GB won bingo with it)
The Martha thing on the other hand...Really? REALLY?! That was bullshit of epic proportions. When did we establish that she no longer loved the awesome, heroic doctor she was engaged to? Oh Yeah, they're both black. *eyeroll* I like the idea of her and Mickey working together, but they should work with UNIT. And not be fucking married. Russell's issues with authority have hurt the show.
Also, I want my fucking Time Lords back!! Proper fucking Time Lords. Parental figures of old. No more lonely Time Lord. No more "they went crraaaazzy!" bullshit. For God's sake, please?!

Date: 2010-01-01 08:33 pm (UTC)Anyone want to write some fic about the Captain and the Midshipman roaming across space and having sexytiems until the Midshipman dumps him for being a cock?
WTF! Martha and Mickey? Married? Oh Rusty you are a hoot, and you have such control over your characters to rewrite their canon history. Your powers are awesum, Mr Davies!
And Donna, so her head wouldn't really 'splode then? So what the hell was all that DOOM shit about her not being able to remember him at all, ever, ever again. At least she got married to a nice bloke, in what looked like the same wedding dress from her first appearance.
You really wonder why he bothered to put all the crap in at the end about the Doctor seeing all his old "mates" - what did it serve?
The Master is still there for Moffat to pull him out as a handy plot device if he cocks up royally.
My Dad, who hasn't really watched new Who, said that it had to be the longest goodbye in history.

Date: 2010-01-01 08:39 pm (UTC)I agree with what I've read elsewehere, which is that this episode was purely about how much RTD loves Ten and about how much Ten loves Ten, and if you don't love Ten as much as RTD and Ten do, then you're pretty fucked. That was awful. And Donna never got her brain back. Ew.

Date: 2010-01-01 08:39 pm (UTC)I do kinda love that in all this Rusty managed to work in his hard on for Russell Tovey. I don't think Tovey would touch him with a 1,000 meter cock, but dammit, if he didn't get to establish that his character is omni and willing. Now Tovey can go back to the actually good show that he's on...
