UM MITCHELL AND WEBB AS ROBOTS.
Sorry, this is still all I'm thinking about.

Me too.
ghost_busting 8th-Sep-2012 07:59 pm (UTC)
Haha as soon as I heard David's voice coming out of that robot I was all "YEP I'LL STAY FOR THE REST OF THIS EPISODE."
djan31 8th-Sep-2012 08:01 pm (UTC)
It took me a minute to place it. Oddly enough, it was Robert's voice I recognized. Then I proceeded to flip my shit, because they're perfect.
crayzee_mouse 8th-Sep-2012 07:59 pm (UTC)
I know, I loved it!
batsublue 8th-Sep-2012 08:04 pm (UTC)
It took me a while before I realized it was their voices - it made me so happy :D
grapefruitzzz 8th-Sep-2012 08:33 pm (UTC)
THIS WAS EXCELLENT, CAN'T DENY.
pastelstar 9th-Sep-2012 07:54 pm (UTC)
Only good part.
fauxkaren 8th-Sep-2012 07:57 pm (UTC)
I really really dislike Chris Chibnall's work, so I haven't bothered to watch today's episode yet. How was it?
atomicdogmeat 8th-Sep-2012 08:02 pm (UTC)
Really fun. His best episode and a huge improvement on his others.
fauxkaren 8th-Sep-2012 08:05 pm (UTC)
Good to know! I'm downloading it now!
aredhela 8th-Sep-2012 08:26 pm (UTC)
I liked it, it was fun.
grapefruitzzz 8th-Sep-2012 08:34 pm (UTC)
Harmless with some cute quirks, and I'm a major Moffat-era bitch.
zoaster_toaster 9th-Sep-2012 03:04 am (UTC)
Actually not bad. Amy and Nefertitti were all over John Riddell's sexist bullshit and Amy calls out the Doctor on only dropping by when its convenient for him and lots of harmless fun.

Chris Chibnall is a great writer when it comes to incorporating historical figures/archeology/etc. with future technologies (i.e. Hungry Earth/Cold Blood)--he seems to have a thing for Silurians. Plus, he wrote one of my most favorite NuWho episodes ever, "42." I honestly would prefer Chibnall over Moffat or Gatiss any fuckin' day. He doesn't linger around "mysterious" facts and explanations, unlike Moffat. Logical explanation during climax in his stories is there in your face. And what makes his episodes enjoyable is the balance between the emotional and the scientific. In fact, I think I prefer Chibnall over Tom Macrae, and that's saying something as I loved The Girl Who Waited, and The Age of Steel/Rise of the Cybermen were the only episodes I enjoyed in Season 2 during RTD's era. Chibnall and MacRae are the only writers I like in Moffat's era... and maybe Toby Whithouse, too, but that's when I'm feeling nostalgic only (e.g. Vampires of Venice and School Reunion)

Curious what you dislike about Chibnall?

PS: Dinosaurs on a Spaceship was surprisingly excellent.

Actually pretty good. Much better than Asylum of the Daleks.
goldenlockets 8th-Sep-2012 07:57 pm (UTC)
good to see that mad eye moody will be making an appearance in this episode.
poiuytreww 8th-Sep-2012 07:58 pm (UTC)
Todays episode was SO GOOD. I've got my faith in DW back... till the next clusterfuck from Moffat appears.
ghost_busting 8th-Sep-2012 07:59 pm (UTC)
Filch is such a dick.

I quite liked this episode though. It was silly. And I'm choosing to believe the "You need a lesson in gender politics." line was subtly aimed at Moffat.
crayzee_mouse 8th-Sep-2012 08:03 pm (UTC)
I thought the gender politics line was a dig at Moffat too. I liked how Amy was written in this episode because it actually showed she had intelligence (working out how the computer worked) and bravery (helping fighting off the dinosaurs) instead of just cocking her eyebrow, shaking her hair and being foolhardy and arrogant for no reason. She was funny too, I liked the whole "Don't tell Rory I said I was his queen" bit.
atomicdogmeat 8th-Sep-2012 08:07 pm (UTC)
Yeah this is I think the first time I've actually liked her. I wish we have had two and half seasons of her like this.
celtic_thistle 9th-Sep-2012 05:21 pm (UTC)
YES! I loved Amy's characterization in this episode so much. Too bad she wasn't this good the rest of the time. She was smart, capable, and sassy.
zoaster_toaster 9th-Sep-2012 03:05 am (UTC)
I also loved how Nefertitti and Amy were all over John Riddell's sexist bullshit and am choosing to believe it's a dig at Moffat as well.
hollymarchosias 8th-Sep-2012 07:59 pm (UTC)
The last episode was better than I thought it would be.

But Moffat's Who overall is a big heap of "meh."
fanabana 8th-Sep-2012 08:00 pm (UTC)
Loved this evening's episode. Rupert Graves is so sexy, he should be a new companion.
poiuytreww 8th-Sep-2012 08:01 pm (UTC)
I agree. Rupert is such a hot silverfox.
djan31 8th-Sep-2012 08:02 pm (UTC)
unf, yes.
atomicdogmeat 8th-Sep-2012 08:02 pm (UTC)
Oh yes he was a total dish.
crayzee_mouse 8th-Sep-2012 08:04 pm (UTC)
I know! He had chemistry with Nefertiti and Amy, I loved it!
batsublue 8th-Sep-2012 08:05 pm (UTC)
Yes, yes he should be.
ghost_busting 8th-Sep-2012 08:12 pm (UTC)
I wish there was an after watershed special so we could see him and Nefertiti ~gettin' in on.
dweide_schrude obligatory — 8th-Sep-2012 08:00 pm (UTC)
does anyone have a link (preferably for a stream)?
mistyraven Re: obligatory — 9th-Sep-2012 03:08 am (UTC)
PM'd you
fauxkaren 8th-Sep-2012 08:00 pm (UTC)
I am looking forward to next week's episode though just because I generally enjoy Toby Whithouse as a writer. But I 'm trying to not get my hopes up too high.
grapefruitzzz 8th-Sep-2012 08:36 pm (UTC)
Whithouse? *bark bark whine*... dammit, my hopes are already too high. I want him as the next showrunner.

But robot cowboys, sigh.
funkybaby 8th-Sep-2012 08:01 pm (UTC)
i haven't even watched the first episode yet.
atomicdogmeat 8th-Sep-2012 08:01 pm (UTC)
This episode was so fun. Just fun. Could of done with out the rape threat to Nefertiti though.
classic_mold137 8th-Sep-2012 08:04 pm (UTC)
Yeah, that bit was so gross. I loved Nefertiti, though.
atomicdogmeat 8th-Sep-2012 08:04 pm (UTC)
She was amazing but underused. There were just too many characters in this episode. She needs her own episode.
anydoppelganger 9th-Sep-2012 12:46 am (UTC)
agreed. that was so squicky. but for the most part, I really liked the episode. the characters were well-written for once
missmonkeydust 8th-Sep-2012 08:03 pm (UTC)
That episode was fucking appalling.

A small part of me thought "Oh it can't get any worse then 'Asylum of the Daleks'" But it fucking can and it fucking did.

atomicdogmeat 8th-Sep-2012 08:10 pm (UTC)
I completely disagree.
missmonkeydust 8th-Sep-2012 08:17 pm (UTC)
That's your decision.
grapefruitzzz 8th-Sep-2012 08:45 pm (UTC)
It annoyed me less than last week, but it wasn't anything special. Mostly due to having likeable guest stars, but any fool can do that.
lusushi 8th-Sep-2012 08:06 pm (UTC)
I have totally given up on Doctor Who :/ I haven't watched since before River & the Doctor got married. Is it worth catching up?
atomicdogmeat 8th-Sep-2012 08:07 pm (UTC)
Hard to say. Season 6 is a mess and season 7 is only two episodes in.
missmonkeydust 8th-Sep-2012 08:09 pm (UTC)
I'd say it wasn't. The xmas special was rubbish and these two episodes have been bad.
beemo 8th-Sep-2012 08:10 pm (UTC)
season 6 was bad and i don't think season 7 has a plot so i am enjoying it more because the plot was bad
celtic_thistle 9th-Sep-2012 05:22 pm (UTC)
Season 6 was an abortion. Don't bother. Season 7 so far has one horrid episode and one decent one.
batsublue 8th-Sep-2012 08:07 pm (UTC)
It was so silly it was funny. I was cracking up throughout most of the show, especially when Amy was asked if she was a Queen too.
therearewords 8th-Sep-2012 08:11 pm (UTC)
To save my liver, we only did some live texting tonight

Starts out really nice. Gang, alien, Livingstone? And Rory's dad.
Yet again Amy is Emotion and Worry
I need an all guy companion team
No one listens to Amy of course. Rory + Doctor though
Rory I love you. Nef is go
rgeous.
Oh, random ~foreshadowing for Queen Amy?
Pterodactyl = Torchwood
Amy's hair makes her face more round
Oh really, crotch joke. And drool. Hilarious.
Rory I love you and I might be hot and bothered
Blablablabla
I like the robots
We need Endera (?) from ISA as a companion
What a sad villain
White barbarian with an exotic price? You kid.
Gee, Amy and Doctor time
And here's the - oh thank you Nef
Did the Doctor just kill with a smile on his face?
I like you, Brian
Nef, you're really hot.


And some props for Rupert. This was better than last week, imo.
