Doctor Who Instant Reaction Post
Oct. 24th, 2022 07:43 pmJust finished watching "The Power of the Doctor"...
* How. Did. They. Manage. That.
* I didn't get spoiled on _anything_, except for the one spoiler everybody already suspected, and I didn't believe that one. Seriously, _how_?
* Most fanservicey episode ever? Oh definitely, but, well, I _am_ a fan, so. And it was very well-done fanservice.
* Overall, I really enjoyed that. I was braced for a disappointment, but Chibs didn't let me down this time.
* Except for the thing that I will need to write a very angry rant about, some time when I'm not so tired and I've had a little time to let it rattle around in my brain. I mean the New Series Theory of Regeneration(tm) and why it is wrong, wrong, wrong, and how Chibnall somehow managed to make the problem _even worse_.
* But overall, still a good one, thumbs up. (I'm not sure the plot made 100% sense, even by DW standards, but I've given up on demanding too much sense, so we're good.)
