Why the long case?
Rose's return in season 4 is kind of cheesy. :/
Funny thing is, Rose was so badass in all the scenes where she doesn't actually interact with the Doctor. The stuff in Turn Left gives me chills. They should have killed off 10 in The Stolen Earth.

Yeah and unfortunately it ruins the impact of the awesome ending to Doomsday.

Why the long case?
When she is reintroduced with that giant gun, there's this really out of place dominatrix feeling. It was confusing seeing her all the sudden being so independent.

Most of the ending to season 4 is kind of cheesy. RTD just took the "kitchen sink" approach it seems.

I don't want the Ponds to leave the show.
Rory and Amy are so awesome.
Don't worry their future is really, really safe.

Says there will be 5 episodes more info coming soon now, did they change it?
Throwing it out there, if there are less episodes I would theorise the possibility that they aren't including some sort of 50th anniversary episode which will come separately from series 7.
Greater at dying, at least.

The 5 episodes are the first HALF of this Season. The rest will come after Christmas.
It's really, really stupid.
I know these are the first half, but he posted that it said there will be "12 episodes, more info soon" from the link but now it says "5 episodes, more info soon", so I was asking if they changed it or if he got that bit from someone else.
I think Rory died more in season 5 than Sean Bean has in his entire career.
Can I just say how much I hate this whole restructuring of the episodes? I much preferred it when we got every episode earlier in the year, then a Christmas episode.
Splitting the episodes up might not be so bad when it's like a US 20-odd episode Season, but a 13 episode Series just makes it seem weird and fragmented.
I hated it when Glee did a similar thing with Season 3 where, IIRC, we had a Christmas break, then ANOTHER month or so break.

Blame America. Seriously, they do it with all the television series over there, including How I Met Your Mother. It's to give the illusion your show runs all year long, with re-runs in between. But in the end, it's just so, so infuriating. What's even more pathetic is that the series is starting so late, so we've had to wait months anyway. When Series 7 finishes, it will have been two years since Series 6 started.
This is the US's fault? lol.
I thought it was because of the Olympics and its run up, the 50th Anniversary and the BBC being little bitches with money.

They changed it.

The Beeb often make that sort of mistake. I wouldn't pay it much attention.
Always nice to see the Ood pop up unexpectedly.

Considering that RTD gets the full Terry Nation treatment in the credits when they're brought back, I think they're a big component of the universe now. Which is cool. Love an Ood.

I wanted Jack back just so hit could hit on Rory instead of Amy.
That would be glorious
Jack: "So, you die a lot, too, huh?
Rory: "Uh, yeah. Part of the job description, I suppose."
Jack: "Do you wanna maybe...die together?"
Doctor: "Jack, please. We're in a very tense situation right now."
Jack: "Well, I am, too."

Now do Amy being flustered at not being the center of a man's attention.

All I want is a shot of Jack getting dressed in Amy and Rory's bedroom with both Amy and Rory looking very satsified.

I'm interested in Chibnall's second episode.
Granted, I'd be more interested were it not Chibnall writing it, but it's still an interesting premise.
The Doctor knows there's an alien plot, but it takes a long time to swing into action. He has to stay at the Ponds' house for a year as a result, and the episode's set over the course of that year.

Martha was a charming performance in search of a consistent and compelling character.
I like a lot of what Agyeman did, but Davies handled the character horribly.

This is what I feel about Freema Agyeman. Acting was just fine, especially under the circumstances of how her character's turned out.

Nah. It's Moffat's "movie poster" strategy; each episode has a blockbuster, attention-grabbing premise. These posters are just to highlight that.
The Asylum of the Daleks poster was the one with the Doctor, Amy and Rory reflected in the Dalek's cracked eyepiece.

calling it now, The Power of Three is going to be awful.

It sounds like The Lodger as written by Chibnall- what can go wrong?
:S
But seriously, the concept has a lot of potential for slow-burn character development that we don't normally get in the series. Chibnall really has some convincing to do that he can pull it off, though.
