- enjoyed the Master. enjoyed the Master and the Doctor relationship. loved the idea of Martha being a macguffin. loved using the Master's own tools against him. LOVED that the not!toclafane were the humans from Utopia. adoooooored Martha!Mum getting over her Doctorh8 and the idea that they all quietly, sekritly plotted and schemed.

- that said, the "think about the Doctor all at the same time and he will magically not!regenerate" part was fairly lame. i mean, unless this was a long lost episode of Peter Pan or something.

- also deeply lame was Rusty's apparent sudden forgetting that the Grandfather Paradox isn't. the show's entire premise is built on quantum realities, and how they're all separate in space-time, you know, like quantum mechanics actually is, and now suddenly he doesn't remember that anymore and makes a paradox plot? wtf for? he didn't need it to have the not!toclafane come back and kill some humans. it was all just a lame - there's that word again - set up to get time to go backwards and undo the ~~Voyager Episode~~ last year. jeebus fuck, Rusty, your characters have fucking time machines for fuck's sake, you couldn't come up with something better? [and i'm not even going to THINK about why time went backwards, one year EXACTLY, when the Toy That Saxon Built go boom. this is me sticking my fingers in my ears singing la la la la la la la.]

- and very nearly tying for first in the deepest of the deeply, deeply lame is Martha going into the TARDIS, the second time, to essentially punish the Doctor for not being in love with her. how the fuck is that his fault? i love Martha. i rilly, rilly, rilly, RILLY love Martha, but that was totally obnoxious, and i may possibly be the most pissed about that.

- but the most DEEPEST of the deeply, deeply lame?

Jack's the Face of What.The.Fuck?

and THE DOCTOR DIDN'T GET THE REFERENCE UNTIL MARTHA POINTED IT OUT TO HIM???????? riiiiiight.

what a complete and utter waste of something potentially fantastic. and Jack lives so long he TURNS INTO A GIANT ALIEN HEAD IN A JAR JUST FOR FUCKING CUZ????????

if he can't fucking die, he can't fucking die. and if his body heals itself, which, you know, is HOW HE CAN'T FUCKING DIE, then he's not going to age because aging is cells not regenerating. gawd, that was sloppy.

i didn't hate the ep, and there was much about it that was awesome and fun, but the stuff i got issues with throws this ep in the bin where i store the VoyagerEpisodeThatDoesntExist and the GalacticaEpisodeThatDoesntExist.

i hate it when they blow perfectly excellent acting. ah, well, nobody's perfect. better luck next season, mates.

i'll be over in my happy place where Jack's a proto-Time Lord, if anyone's looking for me.

a fucking CRUISE SHIP can BREACH THE TARDIS???? SINCE.FUCKING.WHEN??????? Rusty, buddy...you either need to stop taking drugs or stop hanging out with Lucas; whichever one you're doing is making your brain dribble out your ears.

i *knew* there was something else that pissed me off.
