Whoa. Never seen you this happy about anything!

Loved it. Haven't seen a planet like the one we get in the end since Thoros-Beta.

Yeah, Ace and Adric were played as teens. I think I refer to the companions and guest cast as "kids" now since I'm thirtysomething.

Hey, no problem discussing it!

Stalkers: An American Hidden Secret

I was sort of worried that "Into the Dalek" had nothing to offer for kids, but I think there's been enough youth perspective added to this batch of stories that it's still young-people friendly.

I sort of liked it, although it kind of wanted to be Dan Simmons's "Hyperion." I read it in high school so I have no idea whether it was really any good or not now.

She actually turned out to be "the boring one."

He sort of mouth-breathed his way to victory.

I wondered why the Teller didn't turn Delphox into soup since she made him turn the innocent guy's head into soup and was trying to cover it all up. Just a little bit.

I was thinking this since I saw the "Next Week" preview. Glad it turned out to also have a little "Wizard of Oz" in it, too.

The stakes were low, I have no idea how deep the civilization or the world was supposed to be, or what year it was set in. It wasn't entirely a disappointment though, with bits like that security guard saying that he found these "really interesting worms!"

Not a big fan of heist movies, so this story wasn't aimed at me.

Ah, "Doesn't he look tired?" was the last thing I was implying.
Capaldi is fantastic as the Doctor.

He did have to catch his breath after some running, which was noticeable.

Sort of Farscape-flavored, which is not a bad thing at all.

The last three stories have been a fantastic break, haven't they? Cautiously optimistic about next week's ep.

Second time in as many days I've seen "ming mongs." (Over at Doctorwhonews, granted, which *is* Gallifreybase, I think?)

Came home late, watched it, loved it, can't read all of the
comments because I'll die if I don't get some sleep tonight.

Here's hoping that your instincts are better than mine.
Could be a good matchup; Capaldi vs. "monsters inc."
