OMFG! NEIL GAIMAN DOCTOR WHO!
NEIL GAIMAN WROTE AN EPISODE OF DOCTOR WHO AND IT WAS THE BEST THING I HAVE SEEN IN MONTHS!!! OMG OMG OMG!
Okay, the things that were great:
1) Canon confirmation that Time Lords can switch sexes when they regenerate!!! That guy with the tattoo has been both male and female! This is awesome.
2) Gaiman ships the TARDIS and the Doctor even more than I do. TARDIS/Doctor OTP forever!!! Seriously, every second of them was great.
3) The ood were back! A little. This episode was so heavily steeped in the mythos of Doctor Who I could hardly breathe, and certainly couldn't catch all the references to it.
4) He wrote and Amy and Rory wonderfully. There were so many amazing one liners, and so much undeveloped backstory that you just knew was there.
Seriously, I can't say anything insightful. I think I'm just gonna go watch it again. This might be the best part of my graduation weekend and I don't even think that's sad. Can Neil Gaiman write Doctor Who all the time? Please?
I don't usually watch the Confidentials, but holy shit I am watching the one for this ep.
