      Intro was great, no question. The whole thing was pretty good, a bit predictable. End was a little silly.

        a bit predictable

        Someday we’ll all be completely stunned when the sickeningly adorable alien creature doesn’t turn out to be evil.

          The adipose babies weren’t evil, though. Just the nanny and her methods.

          The Doctor hasn’t yet.

        Silly is par for the course. I welcome silly, as opposed to the morose it could have been. Donna and the Doctor’s saga got some closure without becoming a complete tragedy.

      That made me giddy. You can kinda see Disney’s new influence as far as scale. Also, Alistair Lock’s score over the episode was phenomenal.
