The Star Beast

I was watching with my housemate so I couldn't do my normal thing of pausing to make notes but it would feel wrong to not make a post so with that said...

...THEY'RE BACK BABEYYYYY

man seeing David and Catherine together again was so much fun!! the Meep was so cute and evil, the emotional stuff hit in the right way, I REALLY want to run around in that new TARDIS!!!!

a couple of quibbles (the sonic can suddenly do A Lot huh. and 'we're women so we can in fact just choose not to die' was a bit ??? especially given that Thirteen just had to regenerate and it was Ten who has been known to Not Regenerate Actually in a way very relevant to creation of the DoctorDonna) but overall I had a GREAT time, can def see how this was the most conventional of the three specials and I'm soooo intrigued about next week's!!

#seeing how RTD writes characters makes me really sad that we're unlikely to get Thirteen and the fam back before he leaves #I'd be fascinated to see how he would write them since character development (or lack thereof) was what frustrated me most about that era #the star beast #doctor who #dw #dw spoilers #ramblings
