NWR for Vampires of Venice
May. 24th, 2010 09:47 amBut first my short review of the end of LOST. Spoiler free and I ask that the comments are the same. I’m OK with that explanation but I am not loving it since it was the one that they said it wasn’t after the first season but it really was but a slightly different version of it. Also, considering all the padding they had this season, the very end (aka the answer) seemed rather rushed. So not the best ending of all times nor the worst
Ok back to the good Doctor who has some issues (heck he has the whole subscription) deciding to helps some other people with their issues with mixed results for them and for him.
The costumes in this one were fun but the Beeb has always done well with costume drama. We get to know Rory better and it amazes me how polarizing that one character is in fandom. Personally, I am hoping that we get more time with Rory and Amy.
More about the villains in the spoilers section. They are doggone hard to talk about without spoilers really.
Anyway it looked good and again felt like an episode that you could drop just about any Doctor in and it would have worked. I think that is interesting that RTD’s Doctor Who was very much his playground and you couldn’t see another Doctor doing what his Doctor did but here Moffat is producing episodes that could be just about any of the Doctors probably with slightly different results. And I am enjoying that. It feels more connected to old Who than RTD’s run did (I’m not saying that RTD’s work is not Doctor Who or in the DW universe).
So in the immortal words of River Song ( Spoilers )
