The Waters of Mars
Nov. 15th, 2009 10:39 pmVery brief thoughts behind the spoiler tag, of course.
Okay, plot-wise, this was basically the same idea as in "42," with water instead of fire as the possessing element.
But this wasn't about the main plot. This was about The Doctor, and the continuation of the hubris he's been showing ever since the end of last season.
And man, how good that story's becoming; it almost makes his horrible treatment of Donna forgivable.
Plus, I liked the entire supporting cast here.
Oh, and seeing John Simm in the preview (as well as Catherine Tate and Bernard Cribbins) only makes me want the next special to arrive even sooner.
