Things were said that resonated really deeply in me, and things happened that were undeniably important. And that just hasn't happened in so long.
Yes! This episode was like a breath of fresh air. I'm sad because I know it probably won't last, but I'm glad we got at least a few good episodes in this season.
This episode was SO damn good, and came at a point when I'd basically given up entirely on s6, so it was a nice breath o fresh air, even if in the end the s6 I acknowledge is only two episodes long and is "that time they met the TARDIS" and then "that time Amy got stranded for 36 years and then the Ponds went home because the Doctor is a gigantic douchebag".
This episode was amazing for both Karen and Amy. I love Karen, but I'll be honest and say I didn't really think she had it in her -- but she knocked it out of the park in this episode. The difference between oldAmy and youngAmy was so well-done, making them the same person while also emphasizing the years of pain and loneliness that had turned oldAmy so bitter. (And she was PERFECTLY JUSTIFIED in being bitter so f u people on Tumbr who say otherwise.) And we had slow-mo action scenes of badassery that made a point other than just LOOK GUNS ARE SEXY!!! Amy's skill showed how long she'd had to fight for her life, how accustomed to it she'd become, how hard she'd had to become...

And the Doctor/Rose parallels! My heart!
