Sorry Moffat, I'm still not convinced.

At least it could have been scary. Like Blink. But it wasn't.*
At least something could have actually happened. Like in GitF. But it didn't.**
At least you could have introduced an interesting new character. Like in tEC/tDD. But you didn't.***

***Don't get me wrong. I think River has potentials. But so far I've only seen her whining about this Doctor is not being hers yet. WTF? River, be cool, for god's sake. You can be, I believe in you.
**Okay, some people DIED. So what? Although I have to admit I like that Dr. Moon is Morpheus. And the little girl is Neo. How Matrix-y of you, Steven.
*Sorry, can't write anything positive about that. It just wasn't scary, sorry.

BUT BIG POSITIVENESS: the Doctor is NOT OOC! Hurray! SM actually CAN write Ten. Then why didn't he do it in GitF? (I'm actually thinking about forgiving him for writing a Doctor who would leave Rose and Mickey alone on an abandoned wreck. Maybe it was just too early for him to know who Ten is.)
BIG POSITIVENESS NO.2: Donna is a kick-ass! Yes, we already knew that, but she still is, even in an episode written by a male chauvinist.


Yes, Doctor, you ARE Pretty Boy.


I loved that Donna kind of admitted that she thinks he's a pretty boy, but at the same time she didn't let him to touch her. Donna, you ROCK. But I just don't get you. I would let him touch me ANY TIME. I would even ASK for it.

So, next week then. As I said, this episode (and on episode I mean the whole two-parter here) has potentials. We'll see.
