Discontent and the Doctor

[meirwen]

Okay, I wasn't right back.
And, in the interests of full disclosure, I didn't rewatch it. I tried. Truly. But I got about as far as when Wilson has his last gasp...oh, wait, not "Wilson"--Handles...and I just couldn't take it any more.

A while back a meme was going around the interweb, that in one incarnation looked a lot like this:

I totally agree with everything you have written about this subject

[meirwen]

Yes, that would have been infinitely better as a farewell, and all it would have taken would be a bit of a tweek.

And, yes, I fear Peter will bear the blame when people start realizing how bad Moffat's stories are.

Did you notice that The Doctor was Handles' saviour?
Dare I type it?
Handles' Messiah.
Do I think that the character line was created for that pun?
Maybe.

Thank you so much for this review.

I'm not happy with what I've written (happier with "Doctors and their discontents" than with this piece, but both are truthful, so I think I'll let be).

You are entirely welcome.

And I forgive you for pointing out the pun. That is how much I love you (head hurts from pun now; time for tea).

[meirwen]

All of what you said (and I have to go back and rewatch that scene with the curator--I think I still have it on the DVR).

The planet is called Karn, they're the Sisterhood of Karn, first seen in this episode:

I was so happy to see them again, it brought back old memories of the episode.

I sadly have to agree that I do not like what Moffat does to his women, at all. I'm increasingly gritting my teeth through the difficult episodes, and Marc and I have long gripe sessions about them.
