You can now talk about the season as a whole. The only reason I am putting things behind the cut is that some people haven\u2019t had a chance to see the episode yet.<\/p>\n<p>Well that was fun wasn\u2019t it? The pay-off was nice. I have one or two quibbles but we are talking that timey-wimey kind of stuff that you just kinda backburner when it comes to Dr. Who.<\/p>\n<p>I do like how everything in the season was relevant. Including what looked like a few continuity goofs but turned out to be something else entirely.<\/p>\n<p>And a round of applause for the actors. They managed to make it entirely believable and some of that dialogue was a mouthful. And River Song was redeemed in my eyes.<\/p>\n<p>I am grateful that Moffat was given the reins and allowed to do what he wanted to do with the Mythos.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>I think the sequence between Amy, River, the Doctor, and that poor Fez was one of the funniest of the season.<\/p>\n<p>They did a lot of extra footage this year to splice together this episode. I am sure that some fan has gone back and tracked all the shots and where they were dropped in. Rather clever I thought.<\/p>\n<p>So Amy remembers things that didn\u2019t exist. I still think that she is in a pocket universe. Again the companion as Deus Ex Machina is used. I am really hoping that this doesn\u2019t happen every season from now on. I really don\u2019t mind if everything isn\u2019t connected. Or go back to a couple of episodes telling a story and have done with it.<\/p>\n<p>How does Rory remember he was plastic? Yeah, that bothered me a lot.<\/p>\n<p>But it was all niggling points. Overall I was quite happy with the whole season.<\/p>\n<p>I am looking forward to the next season. I have a feeling that we are going to find out about River and why Daleks aren\u2019t happy to see her.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Spoilers behind the cut and in the comments.
