06: The Lazarus Experiment [[August 10]], [[2007]] | |||
(First watched 2007-08- | (First watched 2007-08-10) OK, so finally Martha Jones is permanent. Well, as permanent as companions get. | ||
The CG Lazarus monster was interesting... it was easily discernable as CG, but as far as completely inhuman CG monsters go, it's about as good as I've seen for a television show. | The CG Lazarus monster was interesting... it was easily discernable as CG, but as far as completely inhuman CG monsters go, it's about as good as I've seen for a television show. | ||

(First watched 2007-08-18) Beyond the near-real-time gimmick, this episode didn't do much for me. | (First watched 2007-08-18) Beyond the near-real-time gimmick, this episode didn't do much for me. | ||

09: The Family of Blood [[September 7]], [[2007]] | |||
(First watched 2007-09-07) Nice episodes. I'm glad the conclusion had time to boil with a second episode; I was afraid things were going to get quickly resolved in the last five minutes of the first. | |||
I'm reminded somewhat of Enterprise episode [[Star Trek: Enterprise Season 3|Similitude]], in that for some reason there's a temporary alternate version of a character created to aid the original, making for identity problems and ethical questions. In this case, John Smith has to try to deal with the fact that what he perceives as his entire life is just a fiction, what he thought were dreams were the reality, and that he essentially has to die to allow the Doctor to live. | |||
The notebook and sketches John Smith kept of his dreams of past adventures and selves was too cool. | |||
Baines--I quite enjoyed the crazy face his actor used for the alien-possessed version. What a sniff. | |||
Complaints... doesn't a device that completely rewrites genetics seem... too convenient to have just been sitting around? Considering he's been faced with various people trying to prolong their lives through gruesome means, people with strange physical disorders, and that he himself should be running out of regenerations soon, doesn't it seem that this device would be able to take care of such problems? | |||
