DW: S08x09 – Flatline

Hi Guys,

let’s talk about the new episode of Doctor Who. I kinda like this episode. We see Clara taking the role of the Doctor and again i have to say the ‘monster’ or the idea behind them is not really good or interessting. But everything else is really good.

I am the Doctor. You can call me Clara.

The TARDIS were minimized and the Doctor is traped in it. So Clara has to do the Job of the Doctor. After she critize the Doctor in the last episodes, is she now in his position. She is investigating the missing people. With a little help from the Doctor she is a pretty good job. She understands how difficult it is to be on this side. There is the group of people she has to get there out alive. She lies alot in this episode, to the group, to her boyfriend. She doesn’t mourn the people that died, she just keep going. I thing the Doctor is a bit harsh. Because she did a good job. She did everything to save the guy from his sacrifice mission and also saved the Doctor. People died but this where death, she couldn’t make much about it. But of course she wasn’t Clara, she was the Doctor.

Looking into a mirror

The Doctor is really harsh to her in the end. I think it is because it was like looking into a mirror. He saw himself in Clara, he saw what he make out of her. That changes, the lying and everything that is what he is making her. All the adventures, all this stuff they are going through, its changing people. It did from the first time. Nobody step into the TARDIS and left the same. Are this good changes? Maybe you can’t say if it are good changes or not. It depends on the way you look at it. But we know how the Doctor looked at it – who the tenth doctor and the eleventh doctor looked at it. What did the twelfth doctor see when he look in that episode at Clara? He sees himself. He sees someone whom he doesn’t know if he is a good person or not. He looked at someone how did everything to save him, like hedid for Clara… he looked at someone that take the risk. He doesn’t think that he did good stuff. Maybe he saved the world, but people died. The wrong people died. They did what they had to do, but they didn’t do any good, they just do what was nessassary.

I think he is afraid of what person he make Clara. He doesn’t want her to change. Because of that conflict this is one of the stronger episodes.

We will read us at the next episode of Doctor Who.

DW: Battlefield

So, i love this episode because the Brig is playing in it and UNIT is there again. A UNIT without the Brig. I really have big expetations. The Brig is in retirement but he goes back when he hears that it is about the Doctor.

This Story had a cross over with other demension. With Arthur and Mordrid and they are knowing the Doctor as Merlin. So it is fun to see all people recognize the Doctor as Merlin. But the best part is that the Brig also recognized the Doctor.

It is really lovly to see the Doctor and the Brig interact. It is so sad we can’t see the Brig with another Doctor. He is perfect and he brings Bessie. The Story is for my taste a little to much magic, but i really like everything else. UNIT Stories where alway the best because of the characteres. And the Characteres have not losed anything. It is sad that Benton is not also back. But as long we have the Brig i am happy.

For everyone which love the Brig, this is a really good story. The Brig is amazing in it and it did him really justiz. The Doctor is really cold. He fight with words and that is amazing but he also is distant. He choose a side and don’t have any thoughts about the enenmy. He no longer tries to safe everyone.

Long live the Brig and UNIT.

DW: S08EP08 – Mummy on the Orient train

Sooo,
my internet was just making my life very complicated, okay complicated is not the right word but it takes me ages until i excatually could see this Doctor Who episode. But here it is and lets have fun with it.

The last goodbye

My first thought when i saw the Doctor and Clara on that train, was okay he just thinks she is there (yes watching to much AOS) and the second tought was okay, he gets into the past and take Clara at a time before they fought. Than i thought about robots and everything else but this? Really? A last goodbye trip? Which idea was that? This is a totally stupid thing to do. For both sides. This episode make most of the good stuff of the last episode just vanish. Clara was hurt and dispointed and than she just go on a last trip with him? Telling him that she don’t hate him and snuggle with him. This is nothing i find good.

Are you my mummy

The story is not getting me. I am a big fan of ‘The Mummy’ but this was, something… i don’t know. It doesn’t make sense to me and that is strange after seeing an episode where the moon is an egg with big spiders (DW: S08x07)… but why is the mummy goes after the ill first? Because the are the weakest? That doesn’t make sense, even less when she is a soldier. Because go for the boss, ever. Then there is someone send a train with doctors and Professor on a journay thorugh the universe. With fake passengiers and fake train? Why? We never learned who did it, why he did it. Because really? The Doctor didn’t do something special. He just tried to find the final word to end it. Everyone else could has done that.

The Doctor is the Doctor

So we see a Doctor on that journay that didn’t try do save everyone. We saw someone that just didn’t care enough. Of course he cares but not like others did. He is actually – like Danny said – an officer. The other were just his soldiers, there just to be cannon fodder. He is the worst. Don’t get me wrong i love the Doctor like that. I love all the othersides he had over the years, but this is a side he didn’t show often. Most of the times he just wants to save everyone. But this on didn’t just know that he can’t, he didn’t even try to let them in, because will use them to save himself and Clara. Nothing more nothing less. So he needs Clara so he keeps on saving people.

That is the End

This end scene in the TARDIS is the best in the episode. Claras question are important. She beganns to see and understand that Doctor. Than she just decided to end her relationship to Danny. I know she didn’t but for me, is this the end. Danny wanted her to not to lie to him again. But this is what she decides to do. She decides to travel with the Doctor again and she didn’t told Danny. She lied to both of them and that is disapointing.

We will see how this will turn out.

DW: The Greatest Show in the Galaxy

Welcome to a new story,

i like the beginning. It beginns with the circus director who welcomes as to ‘the greatest show of the galaxy’. Again we have very special costumes and special characters. The Doctor is getting junk mails. It is really fun to see the reaction of the Doctor and Ace. I didn’t get warm with Ace, but i really like the Doctor. He is a playful person and also really, really dark and i find it really interessting to see it.

We see this side never like that before. No Doctor destroys thinks and person with so much self-satisfaction than this Doctor. He is so proud of himself for all he did. That is really amazing to see this become the Doctor. I know i said that before, but i really love that fact.

Even if i don’t like Ace i like that the way she is shown in these story. She is really afraid about the circus und i like how insecure she is, but i don’t like that her answer to everything is violence. (Yeah, i know i write that before but this is what is important for me)

But i like the greatest show of galaxy. They are special characters and you don’t which is on which side and what they what. There is a mysterium and i really  like the play with all that things. We have professors, Harlekin, Werwolves and robots. There is something for everything.

This is my favorite story so far from the seventh Doctor.

DW: S08EP07 – Kill the Moon

Good evening guys,

we ant to talk about the best episode so far of Doctor Who? Okay the best episode in this season. I am totally in love with it. This episode makes everything right. It is a long time ago that an episode makes my cry like that. The idea is stupid and actually i don’t like the idea but everything is so good. Okay, just lets start with the episode.

The idea is that something is with the moon and to save the earth they want to blow the moon up. The only things i don’t like is that there are spiders on the moon and spider webs and of course the solution what happens to the moon – we talk later about that. The atmosphere is dark and really good. They have a few really good effects. It is fun to watch. The girl we met in the last episode (DW: S08EP06 – The Caretaker) have a part again. Clara wants the Doctor to tell her that she is special. Something the new doctors could do and do really often, but this Doctor can’t to it. So he takes the girl and Clara to a trip to the moon. Of course it is not so simple. The met a team that want to blow up the moon.

After the girl got attackt she wants back home. What i think is really relastic and important. Also important is that the Doctor don’t get it. Because all that don’t understand humans is the important think in this episode. He finds out that the moon is an egg. So the creature just starts to live. The Woman is afraid of what will happen to the earth and Clara just don’t want to kill a baby. That is an opinion that the girl also have. But the Doctor refuse to help. He is talking and talking and letting Clara stand there. He left them alone. The astronaut, the school girl and a teatcher to decide the future of the earth.

Clara wants to talk, to discuss but there are just going in circles. The astronaut just don’t want to take the risk. But this also means something else. If the blow up the moon and the Doctor will not be back, they will die there. When they get contact to the earth. Clara have an idea. She broadcast to the world and tells them how the situation is and that the should take out the lights when the creature should be killed and make the lights on when they want to let it live. We all know what the humans will decide. But it takes Clara and the girl really hard.

The astronaut wants to do it but in the last moment Clara and the girl try to stop her and then the Doctor is back and brings them to earth. So the can see the birth of this creature. Nothing happend to the earth. Also the creature let the a souvenir, a new egg.

That is not the end. Clara don’t understand what the Doctor had done. The Doctor talks about respect, and making decisions but Clara is just at the end. She feels left behind, alone, like dump little human, with no real importants to the Doctor. She never wants to see him again and she tells him that. That is such a strong scene.

What will we see next time?

DW: Survival

This is the last Doctor Who Story for me. That is really sad. I am at the end and i don’t want it to end. But after that i will rewatch the film, because he is the real end and i will write about it. But i  can tell you i am not a big fan of the movie but of the Doctor. Paul McGann is an amazing doctor.

Okay, i like Ace a little more in the Story. She is anouyed at one point of the Doctor. He is havening problems with Cats and is not a real surprise that the Master have a play in it. I love stories with the master. Ace wanted to know what her friends are doing. So they go back to eart in the preesnt. People vanished into. There are this creatures and also it seems like thereis something like a sickness. The Master get yellow eyes and not just the Master. Everyone. It is a really good Story. Doctor Who would be awesome when it when it would be going on.

DW: Silver Nemesis

Hey Guys,

so welcome to a story to featured the cybermen,  two people travels from the past through time to find the power and a group of soldiers whats the same. In all this the Doctor and Ace standing.

It is an really interessting idea to have three groups fighting over the power. Nobody should win, but that is life. For me it is too short and not deep enough. I want more and i want deeper stories. The Doctor must of the time just sit in the green and hears Jazz music.

And here is a question ask by Ace, who are you.

September 25

DW: Happiness Patrol

Hey Guys,

now we are looking a new episode. It is from the design again a very special episode. There is the hapiness control and the literal candyman. I don’t like Ace very much and the last story don’t changed anything about it. Actually it seems like she does nothing. That is a step back for Doctor Who because the companions were ever the best of him. We don’t need someone how workship him and all she do is getting violant. I am hoping for more.

In this Story Ace is doing something. I don’t like her and she don’t get any real ‘action’ but she has something to do. The Story is not mine but the idea is pretty good. Because that’s how the world works. They want to controll everything. But you can just be happy if you can be sad. You need both. But i think the people will never learn that. What is really happiness?

At the end you have almost sympatice for the ‘villian’ and you must change your picture of the Doctor. Because how he saved the day, is cruel. This is a cruel Doctor and i like him that way. I can see the developement the Doctor was going through and the whole big picture is really amazing.

So see you for the next Story.

DW: S08EP05 – Time Heist

Hey guys,

sorry i am late again. I am working on it. I will work from know on in a different store, so maybe it will be better. We will see. But now lets talk about Doctor Who. Actually i am not pretty sure what i thing of the episode. This could be a episode that i will find good when i watch it again but right now i am not a fan. So it starts with a really interessting setting. Four people and nobody remembers why they are there and why the let someone take their memories. The Doctor can shine with new characters and i was really excited to see him interact with them, but i was totally disapointed. Clara get all the character things. I love the Doctor with more than one persons. So this are the episodes that are mine. But the Story is a little stupid? I don’t know if stupid really fits here. But i can’t think of a better one. I don’t see the logic in there. Yeah totally everything makes in a way sense, but on the other not a bit. Why should she feel guilty, after all this years? Why should she call the Doctor? And all that you can only trust yourself and you can’t trust some one how looks like you thing… makes no sense to me. I mean yeah in a way they are both right, but why they bring it in this episode? There is nothing that give us something to think about it. Is one right? Or what would be the consequences of one. There is nothing.

So yeah… it started so good and now i am a little disapointed. But maybe i set after a few good episodes my standards higher… don’t get me wrong it is not really a bad episode… it is something in between.

September 18

DW: Remembrance of the Daleks

Hi Guys,

i am really excited to see this episode ‘Remembrance of the Daleks’ because like the title already says it has Daleks in it. Also they promised me UNIT – I miss understood that. They mend a organisation LIKE UNIT not UNIT itself – and there is nothing i love more than them. So i have a high expectance for it.

So in the first episode we see the military that does hear what the Doctor says. Ace didn’t get warm with me and of course some Daleks. And for the first time in the classic we see that Daleks could climb stairs. But the second episode don’t is very interesting. Ace is not getting any sympathy. I hope there is coming a lot more to her character. She is brutal and a little dump.

So in the third episode you see a few things i don’t know what i should think about it. The little girl who is everywhere is working for the Daleks. It is – i don’t know – there is nothing in the episode I specially like. For me it is like they wanted to do something like UNIT, but for me they don’t succeed. There is not really a chemistry between the people and the Doctor. The character for me are to stereotype, to flat… there is totally no UNIT feeling coming up, just stupid army people. Even the ‘betrayal’ of someone don’t get me because, who cares. I don’t get any of the characters.

I hope for really good characters, I hoped for Mike, Benton, or the Brig. Characters like that make a story good. But this is for me (and of course some of the reasons are my ‘freudscher’ reading mistake) a totally disappointment.

You could make so much more out of the fight Daleks against Daleks… i am really disappointed. The only good think is that we see the dark side of the Doctor. The fourth Doctor had the order to eliminated the threat of the Daleks on the roots. But he couldn’t do it. He couldn’t do a genocide on the Daleks, even after everything they will do. But the seventh Doctor just destroyed Skaros. He destroyed a whole planet without much thought. That is a totally different Doctor that is a Doctor which is far away from the way he walked long ago. He wanted to see the galaxy, he wanted to explored the universe, than he wanted to make a differents, he wanted to save everyone and now he is becoming a warrior, he is becoming something dark. You can totally see that some day he will become the Valeyard.
