I wouldn't say that I'm a SJA fan, since the show isn't dark enough to hold my interest, but the girls love it and I tend to half-watch along with them. And the kids *are* cute.

Of course this week I'm glued to the telly! :) DoctorDoctorDoctorDoctorDoctor! I am STARVED for Doctoryness! And the ep was very lovely indeed. Mr Smith and K-9 snarking at each other was fab (although I could have done without the girls repeating every single line!), and I loved Suspicious!Clyde, and Rani doing pretty much anything (she does Evil Glares beautifully) - and her parents are a HOOT! *loves Ghita (sp?) ENTIRELY too much*

I'm only a TINY bit grumply that SJA got a full 3rd season, and a visit from the Doctor, and Torchwood didn't, but... *deep breath* COE was AMAZING, so I'll try not to be bitter. *resolve face*

Oh I don't *hate* RTD. He's done some awesome stuff. I'm just, um, done with his writing flaws? Now, COE, in my opinion, did not have most of them, it was tight.

*laughs* I wish I had an icon of Tinkerbell!Doctor...

No kidding. CoE was like... the anti-SJA!

I actually like SJA a whole heck of lot. I think, if anything, Doctor Who's problem is RTD wants it be *both* angsty as hell and have a happy ending. There are ways to do that, but he won't let Ten learn and grow, and actually face his flaws. So it's just frustrating. More frustrating then Angel's and Buffy's tepflon epiphanies. That's my take.

Oh I do too! CoE was bleakness without hope. SJA is always saving the day. And yes, DW tries to have it both ways.

Well from what River said, Eleven will have taken a fair few steps in the right direction... (Not that I don't love and adore Ten in all his flawed glory. I'm missing him already!)
