Sorry folks, it's been a busy week and I never found the time to post this first one.

The Doctor's Wife

*big goofy grin*

Called it.  *checks date*  Almost four years ago to the day I posted a fanfic about the TARDIS being a communication-impaired Goddess who stole away with a Time Lord.  Not that I'm saying Neil Gaiman stole the idea from me, or even ( Read more... )

I didn't complain about the slow development. My complaint was that the threat was a spliced-together job.

It's like architecture. Picture a building made out of massive stones. Now picture a building of the same size and shape made out of rubble. Unless it's built by a Grand Master like Frank Loyd Wright the rubble building simply isn't going to be as impressive as the building made out of massive stones, and Graham is no Grand Master of DW writing.

of course the Doctor has a room. But it's lonely there, and sometimes fills up with ghosts. It's much nicer to stay in her room.

I wouldn't start complaining about unanswered questions in TRF yet, as it is an un-concluded two-parter.

To be fair, I HATED it. And I really don't care to watch the second part. But, I will, just so I have the full story to judge it on.

I don't mind unanswered questions in a two-parter. I like unanswered questions in the first part of a two-parter. That doesn't change the fact that the story is built on a poor framework that had to be propped up in all kinds of overt ways.
