The Beast Below might have worked if it were two separate episodes with nothing to do with each other, and minus the goddamn stupid nursery rhyme nonsense crammed in at the beginning and the end. The Smilers get their own episode, and the Beast gets it own episode. At least then we aren't left with a bunch of stupidly pointless plot elements. Or fewer.

Hahahaha, I'd blanked those stupid smiler things from my mind- which shows how totally correct you are.
Edit: Nenw episode. Rory, such a nong. I hope he dies. Last edited by Professor Smarmiarty; 05-08-2010 at 12:49 PM. |

I really wouldn't mind if he died.

Still got stupid screwdriver shenaigans. Like the screwdriver can open the first gate that the Doctor could easily climb (so they didn't need it to do this to advance the script) but couldn't open the grate lock.

I wasn't a fan of this episode. Felt pretty filler-y.
Next week's episode looks like the cat's pajamas though. |

Yeah this is probably my least favourite episode from... well, all of New Who really. There just didn't seem to be anything going on with any of the characters. No emotion from any of the actors, the script was mediocre or terrible at best and felt very forced in parts. And WHAT was up with the direction here?? Seriously I couldn't even figure out where people kept dissapearing off to between scenes or anything. Seems like they had a bunch of shots leftover from other episodes and just threw them all together in a semi-coherent manner on this one.
Real messy. But next week looks promising. Perhaps this seasons Blink.

I liked some of the character moments (Doctor popping out of the cake at the begining was a great bit), and I think the actors did a decent job, but the script was more watery than Venice. "We. Are. Venicians!" Seriously? The Sonic Screwdriver aparently heals people in addition to Smartys complaints, that guy was killed by a *mirror*, and how the hell did that sight filter go nuts (after a very, very contrived lucky kick) and stick the old woman as she was even after it was taken off?!?. The Direction was terrible, as was the editing which should have fixed it, and the last lines were unnecisary (really guys, it's silent, we get it, you talked about this 10 mins ago).
It's too bad. It had good elements, but it was just lain lackluster in the end. I echo the interest in next weeks episode though.

Yeah, I kinda liked the Doctor deciding to blow up the Tardis. That was at least unexpected, but this episode, and a lot of the season thus far has been largely...meh.

Nah I picked that double dream shit in like 30 secons, same with the Weeping Angels statues things and I'm not that good at these things normally. Better writers required plz.
And the whole Amy and her emotions shit is terribly written, though after this episode I think we should move past it cause it seems resovled. |
