(First watched 2010-07-01) Dodo is really dippy. She continues to not really give a shit or be weirded out about stumbling upon a group of time/space travelers. | (First watched 2010-07-01, -05) Dodo is really dippy.

This story is off to a strong start. For a simple thing, it's nice to see some actual live action rather than a reconstruction using a sometimes hard to hear audio track. And for another, the setting is very interesting. A time millions of years in the future where the entirety of humanity is on a single space ship in shrunken form, in an attempt to find a new home. But like Europeans bringing disease to North America, our travelers have brought viruses from the past that these people haven't had to deal with, and shit breaks loose. | This story is off to a strong start.

So in the second episode they fix the disease problem, go off safely... and show up back in the same place hundreds of years later, the Monoids apparently being the ones on top going by the statue. Time travel as a piece of the plot rather than just setting the stage at the beginning of the first episode! I do notice that before they left, though, Earth looked pretty goofy getting destroyed. I also note that not far into [[Doctor Who Series 1|Nu Who]] they had the end of the Earth shown under very different circumstances. Timey-wimey. | |||
