I don't know what was more overlong, anticlimactic and disappointing, the season 3 finale or the season 4 Christmas special.

As a consolation, there's a small treat in-between the shit sandwich.

Oh wow, that's great. More than makes up for the two eps.

I should be picking up on season 4 later today. Besides a couple of shaky moments, I'm still really enjoying the show.

Just finished "Partners in Crime". My fanboy heart just melted.

Also, I like that Donna's going to stick around for a while. I actually kind of liked her in her first appearance, and she was cool here as well.

One of the most compelling arguments on what Doctor Who is.

Uh...

I was thinking about the possibility of this recently. Looks like my fears are coming true.

Honestly, why bother making a film franchise based off of the series when the show is still running strong? It's quite pointless. Maybe wait a couple of years for the series to end, if it even does, then let people who actually know what the fuck they're doing give it some thought, but this just sounds awful.

At first, I thought the movie was actually going to feature a crossover between 9, 10, and 11. Then I read the article.

Yeah, so what's the point of this?

They already did it twice in the 60s.

You want really terrifying, in 1998 there was speculation of a Doctor Who movie featuring Gary Oldman and written by...........

Akiva Goldsman.

*reads Gary Oldman* That doesn't seem so bad--*reads Akiva* Oh dear Christ! Thank God we avoided that one! I'd rather have Russell and JNT's ghost produce the show for the next two decades than let him touch it.

For all that's it worth, I actually liked Yates' turn on the HP films, though the quality of the movies usually hinged on JK telling the executives to fuck off whenever they wanted to change something. Don't know how he'll work under more liberal control.

Just saw Timelash. Now if you excuse me, I need to wipe the blood off of my mouth.

Makes The Twin Dilemma look like The Deadly Assassin doesn't it?

It made me appreciate Love & Monsters, for Christ's sake!

This show has been such an emotional roller coaster since I've started it. The series 4 had everything in it, to the point that I don't know how they'll be able to top it.

But I do know that the rest of the show will be, if nothing else, cool.

"Water of Mars" is so FUCKING BORING. And choppy looking.

I'm sorry, I can't finish this.

I actually quite liked Water of Mars. If only because of how much it brutally told the Doctor to fuck off.
