SO, SO SO SO.
This is the first episode so far this season that has genuinely felt like a Doctor Who episode.
I think it's interesting, but kind of trying that the message they seem to be sending is that the Ponds want to travel with the Doctor, but only when they want. It's kind of... weird. Like Amy is scolding him for traveling alone but then asks to be dropped off at the end of the episode.
On the other hand, things I loved: Amy acting like a badass companion. Ben Browder FOREVER. The Doctor going darkside, but also kind of not. A cyborg going darkside, but also kind of not. The fact that it felt like a Doctor Who episode.
