She does! I don't know why people aren't just giving her all the awards.
Do they not realize everything that goes into it. Especially when she's playing one character who is impersonating another who is pretending ot be another?
I go online sometimes, but everyone's spelling is really bad. It's... depressing.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
Doctor Who: that was my favourite ep of the season so far. The story was well paced and structured, the means of defeating the bad guys was really quite inventive (though I'm lost as to how electric eels - which aren't eels anyway - wound up in a Viking village) and the character work by the three main actors was superb. (On the Doctor's plan, someone noted that it involved showing the aliens dodgy CGI over a dubious puppet, thus defeating them by showing them both classic and new Doctor Who at the same time.)
Some random thoughts:
- Yakety Sax!
- I loved the Doctor speaking Baby again. In Closing Time it was pretty funny; this one was remarkably haunting, and still true to baby.
- I never get tired of Clara facing down aliens.
- "Okay. You mash up Vikings to make warrior juice. Nice." Very Children of Earth.
- Bit of trivia: the director was previously the lead singer of the Vapours, of "Turning Japanese" fame.
- The Doctor talking about losing companions. Where Tennant and Smith would go all angsty (Tennant would probably find a rainstorm somewhere to stand in), Capaldi just sounds so exhausted by it all.
- "Reversing the polarity of the neutron flow. Bet that means something, it sounds great." Electric eels, incidentally, generate their electric charge by reversing the polarity of its abdominal organs.
- Finally, great work by Maisie Williams on the last shot.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.

Angsty Tennant. {Stares yearningly off into space.}
Oh, were you saying something?

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Holy fucking shit Jesse L. Martin.

There was an amusing Veronica Mars reference in iZombie tonight.

1. Is Captain Cold going to do a PRISON BREAK???? (What? We all thought it.)
2. I...think I ship Captain Cold and Barry now. What would that be named? ColdFlash?
