I thought it was good. While this series hasn't been been "the greatestestest series ever", I find that it feels more like classic Who; and I like that. I also like how Smith examines things. Just something about his face and eye movements that very quirky.

It does feel like classic Who.
I'm just enjoying looking forward to watching something new on TV.

It does seem pretty clear that there is much more of a classic tome going on.
The forest/oxygen plant was kind of a call back to that projector in Nightmare of Eden.
It was one of Tombo's. it begins where to space crafts become phased together.
I'm sure there is tons more callbacks homage or whatever you want to call it.
I am enjoying Matt Smith as the Doctor more than David Tennant.

...., and the end, I must say Pond is very sexy when she is horny but I really don't like this sexing up of the Doctor! So you mind when Amy Pond is doing it, but you didn't complain when Jack Harkness was.

Watched Mawdrynn Undead, the first story in the Black Guardian trilogy.
I don't think I have seen this since it was first aired!
All I remember is that the Brigadier was in it and the introduction of Turlogh!
I really enjoyed this story - classic Who had this weird way of offering up a really intelligent story like this one and then a really silly one.
I loved stories with continuity, I didn't remember that when the Brig remembers the Doctor, there's a montage of the first 4 and enemies!
The two time zones were a cool thing to do.
It was quite an intelligent plot for Mawdrynn tricking the companions into thinking he was a newly regenerated Doctor - his final mutation was pretty eerie considering the BBCs gypsy effects.
The extras are great with an interview of most of the cast.
And a great little Drama starring the Brig being interviewed by a reporter.

Ooooooo I didn't know that was coming out on DVD already! Of course, I'll have to wait a bit for the US release. But, worth it.
I seem to remember being very put off that The Brig didn't have his stache'. Of course, it made sense later once I realized (A) it was deliberate to give a different "age" to the character, and, (B) the actor never actually had a real mustache...it was always a prop-piece.
BTW, is Nicholas Courtney gay? I'm not sure why, but I get a gay vibe from him these days. Like, he's hiding it from the public or something. I don't know. Is he married or anything?

I was rewatching the last episode and noticed something. When the Doctor leaves Amy with the soldiers, he's not wearing a jacket, says his goodbyes, and then they show her hands and he takes them and tells her to start trusting him and asks her to remember what he said when she was 7. For the whole bit of dialogue they keep the camera focused on their heads but you can see the Doctor is wearing his jacket and has a watch on. Then he leaves and the next time they show him he's with River and not wearing a jacket. I wonder if this is supposed to be him from the future coming back to nudge things along or just a continuity error.
I've checked out the audio plays/books. I enjoy the books a bit more because I think audio needs narration. While it's nice to hear a full audio play with a cast and sound effects it can get confusing at points because you have to guess at a lot. Plus the audio books have Tom Baker and David Tennant who are both great voice actors, Tom Baker especially.

Thats not what he said at all.
He said what is wrong with him, not what do you not like about him, as if to suggest that Peter was someone he should automatically like.
And why the hell does he have to justify himself anyway?
If he isnt a fan, then he isnt a fan. Oh, pull the cock from your ass, Cunty. You know what I mean! If Ray doesn't like him, then there's a reason. What's yours? To be fair I haven't really seen too much of Peter Davison's stuff. Like Mccoy I started on his first episode and it didn't really hook me so I never got around to checking the other ones out. Though I only gave Colin a chance because I liked looking at Peri and then actually enjoyed his first season with the longer episodes (I just prefer that format). With Mccoy Mel was the big turn off. I just can't look at her, can't listen to her.

Tonights episode was better, but still had silly weaknesses.
Strange that the people of Vienna in the 1500s all spoke perfect English as their first language, and most of them had London accents.
Also, you have to wonder why nobody gave their clothes a second glance. If they are saying its some kind of distortion thing like the psychic paper, then why did Amy and the twat need to dress up when they entered the school?
The interaction between Amy and the Doctor is spot on, but the boyfriend was an overly drippy, annoying twat. Cliched in fact.

The Tardis has always telepathically tranlated languages into English. It's been a plot point many times. Their clothes aren't that radicaly. They probably just saw them as foreigners.

shame it cant translate your post into English as well.
I will say, if you think that their clothes werent that different to the clothes the 16th century Venitians wore, I think that you are deluding yourself.
Especially Amy, as no woman back then would have been showing her legs off.

Best Tom Clancy movie. Ever. Best Jack Ryan. Ever. The End Liked the latest episode, but mainly for Matt Smith. That dude just controls the scenes. What a Doctor. I'm loving Number 11...  Also, I want to insert my penis into Karen Gillan's anything. She makes me feel funny in my pants. Ever.

I followed someone's advice in here (I don't remember which Dr. Who fan it was), and watched Blink, Fear Her, Army of Ghosts, Doomsday, and then went straight to Time of Angels and Flesh and Stone.
I think I'm going to have to do some more research with the backstory, but is the man River Song is going to kill someday The Doctor himself? Or is it just future storyline stuff and I shouldn't pay attention to it yet?

Matt Smith really does seem to understand the Doctor. I can see why they chose him.
