And I am asking for no spoilers in the comment section please. Let's wait until SciFi shows it in about a month I think (4 episodes left to air on SciFi).

My non-spoiler gut feeling having watched it twice now is that I liked it. It was not perfect but considering all the stuff that was crammed into those last 3 episodes, it was not a bad conclusion to the season. I will remind people that RTD is not out the door yet. He is still the show running until 2010. Again lets avoid spoilers or harsh language. I know that these last couple of episodes have caused quite a bit of consternation within fandom and I know that my experience is not yours.

Caroline is much better. She showed me this morning that she could bend her little finger without too much trouble. The red areas are reducing slowly and I am working on keeping her from scratching at them. Bad reaction to bug bites which means I have to make use that when she goes out that she is protected.

It is just Caroline and me today as Peter is driving Ariel to bowling camp. This is Ariel's first sleep away camp. I think she is going to have a blast.

Shoreleave is next weekend and, even thought I am not doing a costume, I have a lot to do. I have a table at the Art Show. I am not sure what is going to be on that table but something will appear. Might be the last appearance of redone 10 before he starts his journey across the pond to his new owner. I also need to figure out what I am doing for DragonCon. I am leaning towards a set of Torchwood hand puppets for the hand puppet set this year.

I do have a few things to do during Shoreleave. I am looking forward to them all and everyone I am going to see there. It will be nice to go. Caroline is looking forward to it too.

I am grateful that Caroline can bend her finger without crying.

I am very glad that she is feeling better! :) We will be at Shoreleave, and it will be great to see you! I hope we can find some time for the girls to play. :)

I won't give spoilers on the episode, I'll just say that it wasn't as amazing as I was expecting/hoping but it had some good moments. I didn't hate it, I just expected something different, and after a point was predicting the rest pretty accurately. :/

Yay, so glad she's feeling/doing better!

I was underwhelmed by the ep, just as I was by the one before it. Sad to say but for me RTD as showrunner has definitely lost his luster. It wasn't awful or anything, just too pat and clichéd--he really does write like fanfic a bit.

We're looking forward to seeing you next weekend!

I was gripped through the whole episode. And bawled through the ending. I was reading a lot of the comments on Digital Spy after their review and have to agree with some of them - particularly the crowded issue. But all in all... yeah. I'm getting ready to watch it a second time later tonight. Because I'm too much of a masochist.

However... I would love a chance to talk about it with someone who has seen it. Drop me an e-mail and we can chat about it?
