(First watched 2009-01-04, -08, -09)  The first episode was quite interesting.  The slow discovery of the oddness of their situation and how their interaction with the rest of the world is not as it should be reminded me of [[The Langoliers]].  The Doctor's explanation of how it's all quite explainable by dimensions of time doesn't seem to make much sense, but really his understanding of stuff like this is supposed to be way beyond the viewer's.

(First watched 2009-01-21, -22)  So they introduced a TARDIS magnet which can point to the TARDIS.  Of course, after giving this to one half of the group, the other gets lost and can't find either the others or the TARDIS.  They also have a... time travel television thing, which they use to check out various points in history.  From [[Abraham Lincoln]] to [[The Beatles]] to a very different-looking [[William Shakespeare]] and Queen Elizabeth I than the earlier ones the Doctor would meet later.  And along with losing the TARDIS for one group and getting trapped by something with tentacles for the other... the Daleks have indeed followed them there!  I enjoyed Ian reading some science fiction book and saying that it was pretty far-fetched.

So in the second episode they actually all got back to the TARDIS and took off.  But the Daleks are following again!  Short of destroying the Dalek time machine, how can this end?

So in the third episode they drop by the top of the Empire State Building.  Interesting to see the Daleks there again before.  Though I'm a bit surprised at Ian and Barbara.  I know they've gotten used to life with the Doctor, but early on their main concern was getting home.  I know their stop wasn't long, but they found themselves in mid-1960s Earth and never even brought up the possibility of jumping ship.  Then the Daleks go off to scare everyone to death off the Mary Celeste.
