The Good: A susan reference!

The Bad: Creepy Stalker Doctor following around Clara's parents and little Clara. Can we stop having the Doctor meet his companion when they were young girls?

I saw someone say today that Moffat deliberately puts an average show in the episode 2 slot. Do they think Moffat is a wrestling booker, who traditionaly put the worst match on a card in the second slot?

another episode that seems to echo past episodes, including the traditional "take companion to the far future" and the Master episode where the people of Earth came together to restore the Gollum Doctor in the cage back to normal.

The baddies also seemed reminiscent of Pyramids of Mars.

Looking forward to next week's episode:

Why did the doctor make Clara give up her ring for the space cycle? Just grab the TARDIS and make it easy. The stuff with the sonic screwdriver and. holding up the indiana jones style door was neat.

This is my first season of 'live' doctor who. I already like watching multiple episodes in a row a lot better

I actually enjoyed it. The signing was pretty tight and the Doctor/Clara dynamic is starting to come into focus. The Doctor crying over his memories was rather intense as well. While, I do agree this seemed like a rehash of the second Amy Pond episode, I thought this was much much better.

Maybe there's a running cycles theme for this season. Motorbike last week, space cycle this week. Not sure how they'll get one on a sub next week. (That was a sub, right?)

I'm liking the new episodes, but I'm having a hard time focusing on the plot while staring at Jenna-Louise Coleman with my brain going "Buh..."

Girl. Pretty.

I thought it was a test to see if she would give it up.

He is still trying to figure out who and what she is after all.
