A ten! Yes, you read right, a ten! The big one-zero. This is how you properly do a Doctor Who episode! This is by far, one of my favorite Doctor Who episodes.
Where to begin? It starts off catching my interest right off the bat. It keeps my attention throughout the whole episode as well. That is the way it should be. There is also zero romantic scenes between Martha and the Doctor. That is always a plus ten thousand in my book.
This is really one of the freakiest episodes I have seen so far. The concept of statues moving when you take your eyes off them makes my skin crawl. Not only that, you can't even blink! To make things worse, they can turn lights off. You can't escape them! I also liked how you were sent back in time when they touched you. This creative villain was a breath of fresh air. I am so tired of the Cybermen and Daleks. It makes me look at an everyday object in a whole different way.
The whole idea of having the Doctor interact through the DVDs was awesome. It was a good way to make it a "Doctor light" episode. It was definitely better than Love and Monsters. I really enjoyed having to gradually find out what the Doctor was talking about on the DVD. At first it seemed like he was crazy, but in the end it all made sense.
I loved how you got bits and pieces as the episode progressed and it all came together in the end. I wish they made more stories like this. This episode was really fun to watch.Typically I end up just frustrated.
Rebecca White likes to sit at home and watch Doctor Who with her husband Ethan and her dog Moomar. She has a cat, but she does not like watching Doctor Who with him. (He gets ideas from the Daleks.) Follow her on twitter @grumpywhovian and check out her blog grumpywhovian.wordpress.com.
