(First watched 2007-07-13) Heh. Well, [[Harry Potter]] and [[Back to the Future]] references certainly weren't something seen in [[Doctor Who Season 1|60s Doctor Who]].

03: Gridlock [[July 20]], [[2007]] | |||
(First watched 2007-07-20 and -25) I found this episode... unbelievable. In an allegorical sense I can appreciate that the people of the undercity were wasting their life away trying to get from one place to another, but... to have the entire upper city die off and noone notices? That they very quickly get used to taking decades to go from one place to another, when noone is actually reaching above after all? That nobody could figure out a way to open the ceiling? That there were giant devolved crab people living down there, somehow eating enough people to sustain a population even before there was the permanent traffic jam? That people already had the easy technology to create essentially free food and energy, but wanted to take a years-long trip to get a job? That even if the believed rules of traffic worked properly, it would actually be that hard to get a group of three or greater when EVERYONE wanted to get in the fast lane? | |||

04: Daleks in Manhattan [[July 27]], [[2007]] | |||
(First watched 2007-07-27) I'm getting tired of the Daleks, frankly. They're a cool enemy, but in that they were supposed to be wiped from time and yet this is the... fourth random run-in the Doctor has had with them in less than three years, it seems a bit much. | |||
Perhaps I missed something, but after the "One trip to the past, one trip to the future" thing, there wasn't an excuse given for this third trip with Martha, or admission that it's going to be a more lasting thing. | |||
