Episode 5 - Flesh and Stone

[Rory]

So if everyone has forgotten The Daleks invading and assuming they were 'devoured' by the cracks in time then nobody died when they invaded?

Oooh, I loved this one! I wasn't as obsessed with it as usual before now, now I've fully gotten used to it, and the entire series seems wonderful! I'm not completely over Rose yet but Amy/11 could work...
The "can't open your eyes" thing was unbelievable genius! Well, that's a tad over-reacting... but it was good!

[The doctor11]

It was good, but not as good as last weeks, amy trying to get that communicator really annoyed me and then it just shot to the spaceship, what? the direction was way off

I quite liked both The Time of Angels and Flesh and Stone. Might have liked The Time of Angels more, not sure though.
I'm just going to blurt out thoughts, so I'll put it in spoilers. Sorry if it's a bit... unintelligent I'm using up all my intelligence in exams. So yeah...
[spoiler:1qdlr7iv]I'm unsure how I feel about River Song, I liked her in Silence in the Library/Forest of the Dead, but not sure about her here, I mean I don't not like her, she's just a bit...? I don't know. I like most of her interactions with the Doctor, and liking her new character development as a criminal (I have a thing for bad guys). She was a bit weird at the end though, laughing and smiling and such.

Talking about a bit weird at the end... Amy and The Doctor... what? It was very odd and sudden... seemed a bit out of character, but not totally unbelievable. Despite that I actually quite liked Amy's sudden attempt at seducing The Doctor, but not so sure about how that will play out long term. I like that it was a less long term idea than with other companions.

The Weeping Angels were still good, as others have said not nearly as scary as in Blink, but still. Also not sure about seeing them move, however it wasn't too bad.
While I think I'm still adjusting to the new series, it is definitely growing on me, not that I had a problem with it in the first place. I'm so happy it's back on TV regularly. I overall like Amy, but she does have some irritating traits, I hope they will be sorted out. The Eleventh Doctor is growing on me, still trying to figure him out though. He's sometimes a bit over-the-top. But I must admit when he's angry, I just want shut up, look at the ground and apologise.

Next episode looks... interesting.[/spoiler:1qdlr7iv]

Well, I'm slowly dipping my toes into Series 5. These two (Time of Angels & Flesh and Stone) are my favourite so far. I'm still confused by a lot, but I've been watching them with someone, so I had a hard time concentrating. Seeing River Song again..nice!! She's always good. Still thought the encounter with David Tennant was bit better..but it's nice to see the Doctor recognize her.

Two things that stood out for me (and yeah, they're weird things):

1) I liked when the Doctor realized something and put his hand over his mouth. I don't know why, I liked it, but it honestly made my heart go "ping" in a way. Not love or anything, but it felt weirdly REAL. So far, I'm seeing this hopped-up puppet Doctor who I just can't SEE as THE Doctor...but that moment, it was a beginning.

2) Did anyone else think that the music for Amy (especially when they were in the hydroponics area) sounded a LITTLE like a few notes of Owen's Theme?

oh, and 3) (yeah, can't count) I liked the whole Docctor/Amy thing...in the middle..her, eyes closed, him reassuring her. Very nice and real. The bit back in the bedroom..NOPE..sorry I don't know why..just weird. I don't like ANYONE pushing themself on anyone.
