    They broke the rules with the Master. They could easily just use the whole River gave the Doctor her remaining regenerations to give the Doctor more.

    So is Hurt the 9th incarnation? Or does he not get a designation? Is he the doctor without all of the flavors, so to speak, of his different incarnations? Or, rather, is he the amalgamation of all future and past doctors?

    We have no idea, but from what the Doctor said, Hurt-Doctor did something that the Doctor hates himself for doing. The dialogue about breaking the promise seems to indicate that he did something that the Doctor wishes he had not done, and the clothes suggest that he was between Eight and Nine.

    I liked the fact that we actually saw the end, kinda forces you to appreciate the coming episodes because I hope they just do a 12th regen and quit the show. also made me realize I will miss matt smith when they introduce the next/last doctor.

    good finale, still didn't save the season from being the worst.

    I can sadly agree with this.

    The delivery of Clara's signature line was completely underwhelming. Not surprised but disappointed.

    Moffat seems to think it's cool to hype something to hell and then completely dismiss it in an offhanded way.

    So because I've never watched a Tennant episode, I had no idea River was dead. Spent half this episode stopping in the middle to google shit I had never seen. Probably cool for long time Who fans, but there was a lot of references to shit I didn't get.

    Shame on you. Tennant was a cool doctor. You should watch it.

    No Tennant? What about Eccleston?

    You now know your mission for whatever free time is available to you.


    Real talk though. I found myself watching Silence in the Library/Forest of the Dead again (and watching River die all over again oh why did I do that to myself) and I'm thinking about just how much of series 5/6 was set up around the shit River said.

    I was rewatching the Season Finale and I noticed something.

    Spoiler: show
    When the doctor landed on Trenzalor, one of the windows on the TARDIS broke. On the Tomb of the Doctor, the TARDIS has the same break. Don't know what it means but thought it was worth pointing out.

    She's only in that two-parter.

    But srsly, watch 9th and 10th Doctor's runs. Great fun. I personally enjoy musing over the similarities and differences between each Doctor.

    I wonder if they're going to keep the crack now.

    They did go out of their way to show it cracked. So yeah, probably.

    I've really grown to like the show after marathoning all the 2005+ eps in the past year. However, this past season/series seems to have had a breaking point in every episode where all belief turns to disbelief, all reality to abstract, in order to resolve episode conflicts. I love that they tried to abandon '70s scifi tropes by abstaining from Daleks and Cybermen most of the time, but it seems like they made up an ending to every scifi conflict with abstract dialogue instead of defined solutions.

    Amy and Rory should of left on a stand alone two-part episode: Asylum/Manhattan. The remaining episodes should of started Series 7 and establish Clara better than what they did.
