New Who Review for Silence in the Library

I'm going to ask that those that have seen the second half of this please be careful about what you say in comments. I would really hate to spoiler next week. And SciFi, it would really stink if you didn't show Doctor Who this next Friday. Taking a break between the Sontaran episodes was bad enough. I can't imagine what the fan reaction would be if you decided to wait another week on this one.

I will also say that Ariel slept with her light on for a couple of nights after seeing this and Caroline has NOT seen this episode nor will she see the next one either.

Overall fine performances all the way around. It was nice to see David play the Doctor not so confident in what he knows or thinks he knows because of someone he might or might not know in the future. Moffat plays well with dumping us in the situation and then having it worked out like a puzzle. It worked for Blink and it is working here.

Creepy from almost the get go, this one ratchets up the tension slowly to where I found myself on the edge of my chair by the conclusion.

And then there is the mystery of River Song but more on that behind the cut.

I am grateful for having one shadow right now.
