I know!! That was cute. For a second, I was trying to work out if Amy and Rory had had a baby I forgot about, and then I remembered.
Also, you can tell it's not gonna have a happy ending when the main guy's all bumpy.

Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.

This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Woe to the fucking wicked.
P-C, your reaction was mine. A number of people on my Tumblr feed loved it with sparkly pink hearts, but it didn't quite ring true for me. I think I may have gotten too caught up in the logistics.
Did love the Susan reference, though, a lot.

Yeah, I've seen very positive reactions from other people, but...what the hell was even going on? The Doctor won a shouting match?

Compassionately intolerant

Seriously.
That was my reaction.
It seemed like the whole hour was geared toward that one speech. Let's just say, it didn't hold a candle to St. Crispian's, if you know what I mean.
Super picky nit ahead: Perhaps I've seen too many episodes of Face Off but the makeup was _terrible_. I could see the edges of the prosthetics.
It crossed my mind that Moffat is somehow dedicated to making more like the earlier, more kid-focused, stories before the Davies era.
I don't think it is working as well as he thinks it is.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
I really liked the speech, what with the passion and the crying and all.

Actually Clara won the shouting match. And no it makes no sense: the leaf satiated Grandfather with the overwhelming quantity of nummy possibilities? But Dr. Who resolutions often make no sense. The delivery of the patter was quite good.

The status is NOT quo.
I missed the Susan reference.

We are Buffistas. This isn't our first apocalypse. -- Pix
When they first land on the planet which looks like the Cantina scene from Star Wars, the Doctor mentions how he first came here a very long time ago, with his grand-daughter.
