1. This whole damn episode was carried by the actors. Tennant, Cribbins, Simm.

2. The slash writes itself: "you could be beautiful" "I wonder what I'd be without you".

3. This isn't the first time RTD demonstrates a remarkable lack of understanding on the effect of celestial bodies in close proximity.

4. The Master never dies, people!

5. I hated that Donna stayed the same -- but at least she will be happy. (insert: and finally married! this one made me cry too)

6. Martha and Mickey -- weird. Truly weird. And alien hunters? Sheesh. And Where?

7. Sarah Jane knows what's going to happen.

8. The fucking cantina scene ripoff? Worse in context. And dammit, Barrowman can act. Confused, always trusting his doctor, and what the hell am I going to do here? all at once. He salvaged Jack, if nothing else.

9. I'm crying over the grandaughter thing.

10. The Rose part? Meh. But ok, he had to.

11. Utterly appropriate to have the Ood there.

12. "I don't want to go" -- beautiful. The wrecking of the Tardis? oops.

13. Welcome, Matt. And good luck to you!
