I'm actually a little surprised at the high scores here, based on trailers and whatnot. Normally any movie with a description even vaguely close to this one turns out to be a colossal pile of shit. I might have to see this to believe it.

Be warned, though, that Netflix doesn't steer you towards the specials between seasons 4 and 5 if you're going through in order. I've known multiple people who finished out season 4, jumped straight to season 5, and were like "What the fuck is this shit?" because they didn't know about the specials between leading up…

As I mentioned in a comment thread at the time, if anybody's going to take a marriage ceremony in a collapsing pocket dimension seriously it's going to be a Time Lord.
