Seriously, though.

...yeah, I have nothing.
Okay, maybe a few things. I really wish I could see these episodes without having the RTD years so clear in my mind. As it is, this episode very much felt like a ripoff combination of The End of the World and Planet of the Ood with a touch of The Sarah Jane Adventures thrown in, right down to the visuals. I realise that certain facts have to be re-introduced with every new companion, and every new viewership, such as the fact that the Doctor is the last Time Lord. But does it really have to be so blatantly, mindlessly copied? That just feels... sloppy.
I did enjoy both the Doctor and Amy in this, more than in The Eleventh Hour - they're becoming more distinct as their own characters, which is nice.
