Oh, my 'isttas. What would I have done without you, taking care to all the little things and details in an ep? Because the last ep of DW (which I have only now watched),left me "huh?" a little bit. But then I saw Amy, and again was stunned by her beauty. She has that affect on me, mostly because 11 is... not that much with the looking, but oh-so-much with the passion. Which is still cool, and yet - he seems younger than her.
The iDaleks indeed made me think, at once, "collect them all!", but something in that ep didn't sit correctly. Maybe because I understood and heard only about 80% of what they were saying. However, once again I see the same theme I see in other pop-culture media I consume. And it's hardly the first time.
From the current DW to BtVs, season 8, I see again and again the same idea. The same theme. "Something is absolutely fucked up with the world, and we're the ones who did it". The vampire popularity in the comics, the Daleks ("I created you - no, we created you!") and hurting the space whale in DW. It's exciting. It's scary. It's pining down a notion, a feeling. Between the Amnesty latest scandal to ridicules legislation and court rulings (though in my country, courts are usually the final stand to protection), it feels right.
There's a TV show that will start airing tonight in Israel, named (kind of. Hard to translate the exist meaning) "Scoundrels". It's about two elderly men, from the generation that built and fought for Israel. One day, after they see what the youngsters are doing to their old love, they decide to fight back for the country they believed in, after years on which they feel as if their dignity became into nothing. So they starting a mass murder of rude, insensitive 20-something folks. And I think it's brilliant, dark humor, and I hope the TV show will be as good as its description.
And from the two elderly men of Scoundrels to the Doctor who's trying to fix space and time and hearts, I think of the subtext. Of our world, our lives. Of what became our reality.
