I love it. It has a real "the thing" and "alien" feel to it. My only complaint was that I loved how the doctor's arc led him to his "time lord victorious" moment, but I felt that ended too soon. I think an episode or two of him going off the deep end trying to control history would have been phenomenal.

I don't.

I might be misremembering episodes but this was one of the worst uses of the sonic screwdriver which somehow changes an electric powered vehicle into a ROCKET PROPELLED vehicle.

I truly don't understand why so many people continue to give this show a pass for the laziest writing of any Sci-Fi show I have ever watched.

Almost 100% of the episodes end with the lazy wand being waved and doing things it never did before. There is a reason the damn thing was called a SCREWRIVER.

This girl is making it hard for me to focus on the storyline. Easily one of the hottest women I've ever seen.


About to get truly bashed, but I find her incredibly unattractive. Her proportions are just wrong.

IMO, I think it's much better if you think of it as happening just before Classic-Who's Valeyard.


I did hate the sonic-enhanced robot part.
