i actually reallly realllly love this ....chemistry between cameron and joe. like...

hm i like how she just goes BAm! BAM! at his ego and it strikes up so many sparks - but he can take it.

i like how she propositions him but the moment he doesn’t respond positively she literally backs off and gives him lots of space

and i like how they’re both extremely hot

Gordon going through her stuff is extremely shit of him

it’s implied that they do have sex but i feels like he’s come to the conclusion that he can’t handle her

Donna realises that Gordon lied to her again. why can’t he goddamn trust her? right. because he doesn’t - he fundamentally doesn’t trust her. he does NOT see her as his partner (edit: i like how he tries to be better)

Joe tries again.....

the problem with a somebody who’s so....seems so strong and mature is that she’s not

it’s heavily implied she has no money at all - all the people with money find that threatening

ah IBM is trying to destroy them bc they can’t go to court. Cameron gets a job offer from IBM i bet. Joe didnt forsee this. he left the BIOS with Cameron who took it.

wow they are not afraid to burn this character to the GROUND in episode two. it ALL depends on Cameron. But she left them her genius ideas lol

ahhh that’s why he’s such an entitled self-righteous crazy fucker - he’s the boss’ son.

thhis scene is bad lol. how do you rip somebody’s shirt open like that?? and then he instantly goes into some sort o f backstory dump. oh he’s a former nerd so sad. the way he delivers this is so weird - there doesn’t seem to be any genuine vulnerability in it

he did this deliberately

‘everything about you threatens people’ he knows them very well. he’s a great manipulator. but he doesn’t CARE about what happens to them. he uses them like tools. he does not consider their realities

ha. love how she catches him out but it doesn’t matter - it wasnt her he had to convince.

can’t BELIEVE there’s still people shipping Rose with current Doctors beyond - ‘that would be interesting and cool’

i LOVED them together. I LOVED, them. I watched Bad Wolf Bay scene 4 times and i CRIED my heart out every. single. time.

i was a teen and it was formative

but Ten and Rose were made for each other yeah? or ten was made for her. Rose is so . SO. THEN.

and she was left there, in the then. with the luckiest version of the Doctor.

find it mind-boggling that people would erase everything that came after just to keep her in the now and make her his eternal Partner even as the Doctor changed and changed.

look i like 13/Rose art as much as the next girl but. i guess im more a stickler to canon when it comes to throwing enormous amounts of it in disarray for a ship that  - i felt - was actually satisfactorily resolved - the most it could be anyway

i watched ‘the girl who died’

very GOOD doctor-clara interactions here - and i can appreciate the HURT and struggle that 12′s going through - that’s some real shit. and the baby stuff - very good

absence of women + explicitly lampshaded: very bad

horns on viking helmets: COME ON, bad

i am liking 12 more and more. very brash

i am watching the woman who lived

FASCINATING idea. love its execution. i’ve heard no argument from the doctor

he did give a good one (how to value life)

but - the event that catalysed such a complete change (that smile during the talk - hm) did not seem explosive enough

anyway good immortality introspection

moving on to the raven episode

NOT as good writing - very choppy scene changing. clara has regained some annoying quality

wtf a cyberman loved?

god. wow that was actually. REALLY. SAD. GOD. i cried. they actually had a good dynamic as fuck

heaven sent

this was actually A GREAT episode that ive seen the latter half of and Steven MOffat actually did a way good job there

IT IS REALLY SCARY EVEN THOUGH I KNEW WHAT IS GOING ON OMG

moffat CAN do such good horror!!!!!!!!

the only dumb thing about this episode is that he just spent 20 billion years experiencing a loop to keep something secret - and when he escaped it he just straight up told them

hell bent

why is gallifreyan fashion straight from a western? thats fucking stupid

but if this implies that the doctor comes from a peasant family im fine with it

the confession dial being ritual purification before dying and being uploaded to the matrix is a FASCINATING bit of lore

moffat LOVES brining his angels back endlessly

it sucks that it comes down to this. this weird memory wipe thing thats directly recycled from RTD ? why. it has nothing to do with the original dilemma of destroying time. this threat to Clara from the Timelords is ephemeral and sudden

this whole doctor is fascinatingly paternalistic in this - ‘i have a duty of care’. i actually think it’s a good exploration.

it just - makes no sense - it makes no sense that the doctor loses clara like this and clara is just fine and dandy. it’s a stupid twist - it’s a misdirection to get out of resolving the dilemma of clara’s life vs. time fracturing

in a way that was nice - it makes sense after a while - but mostly emotionally. even ashildr gets what she wanted in the end - having had to see half the universe first of course. it does NOT make sense that she forgets her life but keeps all her skills long enough that she can dodge every single danger until the end of time and makes it to the gallifrey matrix in exactly the right spot BUT

it‘s nice - Moffat got Clara out of her death somehow by giving her a TARDIS. it’s.....nice. but it’s fucking a tidal wave in time and narrative that doesnt make any sense

i suppose it was a way to separate the Doctor from her and

Clara in a way became emancipated from the Doctor - he was no longer the portal to time and space.... i guess i’m old-fashioned that I like the fae nature of the Doctor too much to appreciate it

also the question of the Hybrid and the prophecy is never resolved
