I suppose it is a testament to where I am in my own life that I heard that line as his admitting that he was falling in love with her.
I am shallow.
Mal: You are very much lacking in imagination. Zoe: I imagine that's so, sir.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Oh, I hope not. Rose is still too soon, especially for an immortal.

Woe to the fucking wicked.
There is also River still in play, but I agree that we should not go back into Doctor/companion romance, and not just because Moffat will fuck it up beyond the telling.

You're right--Rose's relationship is near in Earth time, but must be way way far away in Doctor time. Still, that's not a well needs dipping in too often. Captivated, like he was with Amy is just fine.

I just continue to be blown away by Tatiana Maslany in this show. She does an amazing job of playing not just all the different clones, but then Sarah-as-Beth and Allison-as-Sarah too.
Co-signed. And Allison finally won me over this ep.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart
I'm intrigued by the "Your biological child? She's not adopted like mine?" and I enjoy how they rushed right past it. I had also enjoyed how they showed us the darker than her kids, an episode later showed her surprisingly white husband, and then let me wonder about it for a while... Adopted? Prior relationship? Is this some clone thing? Stupid like Dale Gribble? Opted for donor sperm from a not-matchy friend? Weird casting like Seventh Heaven where they had a kid who I spent two seasons thinking was adopted?
And if loving Fee is wrong I don't wanna be right.

"I remember when they eventually introduced that drug kingpin who murdered people and smuggled drugs inside snakes and I was like 'Finally. A normal person.'” —RahvinDragand
On Seventh Heaven didn't they just keep accreting more vagabond children in that household as the older ones managed to escape the ball of dysfunction?

The original family line-up had five kids. The older four looked sooper white to me and the youngest (who seemed a good bit younger) was sort of darker with curly hair. I just figured she was adopted. I'm not sure what all happened after the first two or so seasons.

All is well that ends in pizza.
In the Doctor's personal time line, Rose was 200 years before he married River Song, and River Song has been dead/stored only slightly less time. Of course, he only had a clue how important she was when she died, having only just met her.
I've had an idea that Clara is a manifestation of River trying to break back out of the Library...

I hope Clara is her own thing. "I'm not happy," meant something. I feel like I want to do a rewatch of episodes purely for clue hunting. Fun.
I didn't dislike the submarine episode, but this last one had some great genuinely spooky/scary stuff. The way they, well, filmed - whatever - the creature in the pocket universe before we ever really got a good look at it was so creepy.
