Doctor Who Stuff
Seriously, people in charge of Doctor Who...
Stop. Making. Me. Cry.
It's embarassing.
Every single episode so far has made me cry to various degrees.
Even the stupid Confidential of the first episode - Partners in Crime - made me cry, thanks to the tribute to the actor who was to play Donna's father, but he died.
I kinda figured there'd be a 'Jenny death scene', but it still got me.
For some reason, I was sure she was going to regenerate evil, but I don't know why. Possibly because of the end of last season. Remember when the female hand picked up the ring from the Master's grave? I was thinking maybe that was her.
AND...I cried like Martha when the Hath died.
And yay Donna for being smart. Although "I'm going to travel with that man forever" never ends well, does it?
Sort of 'classic' Who with the Doctor in one place and a companion in another.
I was pleased Jenny wasn't a daughter from a relationship, and I liked her, but she was still a bit of a Mary Sue, wasn't she? In a good way, but still...
I did wish the Doctor mentioned something about his granddaughter, when he talked about being a parent before.
The 'lots of running' thing was funny.
ETA: I didn't know this. That's kind of cool

no subject
I cried when the Hath died too! Even though I was yelling "YOU'RE A FISH, YOU CAN BREATHE IN WATER." I guess it was more tar than water, though. My nephew was really concerned about Martha, and declared that he "wanted the brown lady to find a new friend." Yikes.
Jenny was a bit of a Mary Sue. What I don't understand is why she had those amazing gymnastic abilities. The Doctor obviously isn't able to do that (though I'd love to see him try), and apparently none of the other soldiers could do that because they didn't follow her...so where did that come from?
