Doctor Who rant, spoilers for Cold Blood.

[iamashamed]

WHAT THE FUCK. THE HELL WAS THAT? NO NO NO. I REFUSE TO ACCEPT THIS. THEY CAN NOT DO THAT...  WHAT THE FUCK.

Seriously though, not cool. No no no no no. I hate this, it's not right. I can't.. No. I can't even be that sad about it(even though I am), I'm mostly angry that they did this. What a cop out way to get Rory out of the way for Doctor/Amy. And no, I don't ship it, which is weird, because I shipped Doctor/Rose. But I just can't ship this. Ugh what the fuck.

Also, I know people have hated RTD but the guy knows how to make you FEEL SOMETHING and make plots, even if they were sometimes not-so-great.This whole season hasn't been feeling like Doctor Who, and I'm not that crazy about it. I feel like it started out well, but then it got worse. It's not terrible, but not great either. And everything happens ON EARTH. Like, have they even been on another planet yet? I think I am dissapointed. I would much rather have RTD back tbh.

And RTD has made some sexist plots, I know that, but at least he hasn't outright said sexist crap like Moffat, and I can't look pass that. I feel like Moffat is a genius on some areas, when it comes to excitement and horror, but in other areas he really lags... Something. I don't know what it is. The episodes feel rushed, and now that I think about it, none of the episodes have had that 'Doctor Who feel' since Moffat took over. I feel like Moffat is great in small amounts, but not in charge. The episodes he made in the previous seasons were SO MUCH BETTER, I think, and I don't know why.

I'm still going to be watching, but right now I'm not loving it. And I tried to like it, I really did, I was positive about it and didn't hate on any of the characters. But I'm not so impressed when I look at the overall picture. Some episodes were good, but there weren't many that I OMG LOVED!.

Something just went wrong for me, and I'm not sure about what set it off.

ETA: Or rather, I am missing the RTD era, basically.

I can sympathize with your viewpoint. It's VERY different. And I never had a problem with RTD and I do miss Ten and all the characters associated with him (Jack, Rose, Martha, Donna, etc). However, I still find the season is feeling itself out, getting a hand hold on things. It always seemed in the past (in retrospect especially) that the four series and the specials were very meticulously plotted out to drop hints and clues and mold around certain big events. This season, I'm not sure where it's going with this yet. I was just starting to really love the whole Rory/Amy/Doctor dynamic and they totally killed it. I hope HOPE HOPE there's some way to bring Rory back, though (some magical way?). I mean, it's Doctor Who, anything can happen, right?

I'M WITH YOU.

I don't know why people hated RTD, I never ever understood the RTD hate, really. I loved what he did with the series. I felt like he had a good grasp of what was going on and was always planning one step ahead, you know? And you're right, RTD really knew how to make you *feel*, that's exactly it. I'm not really feeling much in these new characters yet. Sigh. Although, I did get teary-eyed in the newest episode, just because I am a sap. Lol. But, yeah, I'm with you on this. Thanks for saying it!

I am so D: @ Rory dying... I was devastated. I've decided that what they're going to do is use the explosion putting cracks in the universe as a reset button. Hey, it could even undo what happened to Ianto! Then everyone's happy! ^.^
