40X3: '''Planet of the Dead''' ''[[]] [[]]'' | |||
(First watched 2009-05-15) I kind of liked how almost the entire show went by without an appearance by the TARDIS, and even then it was just an exterior--no need for fancy dancy equipment. Otherwise this one just felt like kind of a long episode, not as grand as some of the other 90 minute ones. Also seemed a cop-out that he refused to bring along the thrill-seeking thief because he was no longer bringing ANYONE along, rather than because she was a thrill-seeking thief. | (First watched 2009-05-15) I kind of liked how almost the entire show went by without an appearance by the TARDIS, and even then it was just an exterior--no need for fancy dancy equipment.

(First watched 2009-11-20) Wow, the Doctor really went too far this time. Eventually all but saying "Fuck the laws of time! I'm the Doctor!" I'm surprised he didn't go for a less drastic solution sooner, though. I mean, sure, the explosion there was important to history. But were the forensics results of any possible remains left after a nuclear blast important? Evacuate them to a distant part of time and/or space and they'd be alive while leaving the original flow of history intact. | |||
Also, gotta say that Adelaide's end solution seemed a bit off. So she was convinced the timeline should've been left as it originally was, and wanted to put things closer. But... a strange in-home suicide is not exactly going to have the same effect as a mysterious death on Mars. | |||
