First of all, I watched the Second Doctor serial The Mind Robber today. Two, Jamie, and Zoe. I haven't seen much of either One or Two, but so far I like Two better than One.

Yeah, I can see the Two/Jamie. XD Jamie just...completely draped himself over the Doctor in the very beginning. Also, on a shallow note: kilt! Frazer Hines looks good in a kilt. *g*

I am very curious as to when the doors stopped needing the switch on the console to open.

The lava in the beginning? AHAHAHAHA. I totally would never have thought it was lava if they hadn't told me. It looked more like, dunno, oozing dough. On the plus side, this did not turn me off, aside from a bit of laughter.

I thought it was a very cool premise. I really wish New Who would do more non-Earth settings. I have a few questions about the execution, but I suppose Doctor Who has never really been about the totally accurate science, huh? XD

I didn't enjoy it as much as I would an episode of New Who, but I also didn't get as bored as I was during most of the One serials I watched. Mostly I'm watching Classic Who to know more about the Doctor, so I'm looking forward to seeing the other five I don't yet know.

Now, Torchwood.

Oh my God. I'm still crying. I started bawling during that final conversation between Owen and Tosh, and just haven't quite been able to stop. I don't think I've ever cried more than at most a few tears for something fictional, but yeah. Bawling.

Oh Owen. Tosh. Those were such good deaths. I hate that they had to die, but I'm so happy about the way they went. They became my favorite characters, through the course of this season, and I was so rooting for them. And now I'm just so proud of them.

God. I can't think about Tosh's "Because you're breaking my heart" without starting to cry again.

They really carried this episode. I felt sad for Gray and Jack, and omg Jack was buried for almost 2000 years, how traumatizing is that, but... OWEN. TOSH. *tries and fails to hold back sobs*

I will probably have more thoughts tomorrow, when I am a bit more removed. But for now...thank you, show. I never would have believed you had it in you, during season one. I'm so glad you were able to provoke such an emotional response in me.
