Watched Journey's End. Loved all of it except for the last ten minutes which I have decided did not happen. It's a good thing I was warned though since I'm pretty sure if I'd watched it without knowing what was going to happen I would've been yelling at the screen. As it is I am in a zen state where I acknowledge that RTD loves angst and will insert it unnecessarily anywhere he possibly can and there is no reason why I should have to accept this when it interferes with my enjoyment of the show. So in my head this episode ended after everyone walked off out of the TARDIS. It was lovely! I really do love ensemble shenanigans the most.
(But in a hypothetical situation where those last ten minutes did happen (and I stress they did not) I would ask what could possibly be the point of erasing all of Donna's journey? It makes no sense! You make everything that happened to her not matter, what is even the point of that? Seriously to screw her over like that just so the Doctor will be alone again? Come on RTD, that is ridiculous!)
Feel a bit bad for Rose and Handy. She's right you know, he's not the Doctor. He's got part of Donna in him, he's another person. Also wow Doctor way to be an enormous tool. 'He killed all the Daleks, he's committed genocide!' Umm. Right then. Who else do we know who's done that? My brother got him in one yesterday, we were watching The Doctor's Daughter together and we got to the bit where he holds out a gun to the war leader guy's head and is all "I never would. Found your society on that: a man who never would' and he turned to me and just said, 'The Doctor's a hypocrite isn't he?' He's only seen a few episodes with Martha and a couple of Donna's with me but he's clever like that. ;)
So I guess I've got five specials of the Doctor pulling his lonely boy schtick to look forward to then? Ah well, at least the Master's coming back, that'll be sure to liven things up. Apparently there's to be some ridiculousness involving hoodies and a skullface, I look forward to it. =)
