Doctor Whovians 12 years, 5 months agoI don’t know why, but River’s true identity sort of pisses me off. I might have to watch that episode again.

Doctor Whovians 12 years, 5 months agoOH MY GOD I REALLY WANT TO FLAIL ABOUT SOME NEW CHARACTERS IN EP 7. people who’ve watched it know who i’m talking about. i’d like to autostraddle some of that. oh man, can they have their own spin-off show?
-
Yeah wow I thought I was just being crazy and wanted it too much but eventually there was no way they weren’t. They could easily make a show about them, considering the one person’s profession. (Ahh talking in vague terms.)
Thank you Steven Moffat!
-
YES! They were so awesome! And Victorian! And interspecies! Far too perfect characters for some fun adventures to not have them turn up again
-
Just imagine the fan fiction possibilities.
-
Yes…there was that….and also a certain someone in uniform I’m hoping we’ll have a flash-fo/back to next seasonette…..
-
“Why do I put up with you?” *tongue*
They need their own show like, yesterday.
-
Completely. The shout out to the gay married Anglican marines was good, but lizard lady and friend were amazing. Fanfiction should take this up, or the BBC, but I doubt they will.
-
So freaking awesome, I want a series following them.

Doctor Whovians 12 years, 5 months agoSo. Wow. It’s gonna be a loooong summer.
-
Seriously. Autumn? What does that even mean? That could be November!
-
According to the Wikipedia page, which is citing the Doctor Who magazine, the next episode is airing in September.
-
In the meantime we spin backward through time and re-watch 5 seasons, I guess….

Doctor Whovians 12 years, 5 months agoSo I just finished watching ep 6 The Almost People and no spoilers, but the ending was the most personally terrifying I can remember. I have nightmares where that kinda thing happens to me. How long until we can discuss things?
-
It doesn’t air in the US and Canada until next week. Usually we wait a week to discuss episodes, so I would guess next week, but I don’t care if you discuss it before then I’ll to avoid the thread to avoid spoilers
-
You sure? I torrent like mad, but I could swear BBC America was simulcasting a second showing to synch with the Brit next-day re-airing?
-
BBC America was airing them the same week as the BBC, but because last weekend was Memorial Day weekend BBC America had a marathon rather than show the new episode so the US is a week behind now (we got ‘the almost people’ yesterday and not ‘a good man goes to war’), maybe they’ll resync up at some point.

Doctor Whovians 12 years, 5 months agoI just watched a couple of Old Skool Who stories back to back and they were good, but I’m so sad right now. I watched “The Time Monster” (which featured a lot of The Brig) and “Seeds of Doom” (which featured a lot of Sarah Jane Smith). I’m still having a hard time believing we lost Nicholas Courtney and Lis Sladen back to back like that. So…[Read more]

It’s going to take a re-watching or two and some time, I’m not super thrilled with River’s true identity either but I think I’ll eventually adjust.
Yeah … it was the least surprising revelation ever. I mean, some of the Doctor Who blogs were joking about it from the beginning of the season. It just seemed too out there to take seriously … and behold! It’s actually true.
I’m just really hoping that the Doctor doesn’t spend too much time with her when she’s a young girl, I like their relationship so far but that might be a little too much for me.
I almost think that I preferred River when she was a mystery, this seems a little too last minute and mundane for the kind of hype that they’ve had with her.
I don’t know really, I think I need to rewatch the episode a couple times and then decide how I feel about it.
I think this whole Who Is River Song?!? thing has been built up and strung out for so long that any revelation as to her identity, no matter what it is, would seem like kind of a let down. I do like how it answered the question of how she knew the Doctor’s real name (she read it on his cradle!) in an unexpected way.
