Hello it's good to be back

The great thing about jet lag is that you can wake up at 4.30am in the morning and wonder what it's all about. Anyhow I missed the final two episodes of Doctor Who when I was away in Florida and finally managed to watch them yesterday. Now bear in mind I am still time zone knackered when I say the following:

Doctor Who - as good as Buffy or your money back.

The finale was epic and ballsy and not at all what I was expecting. It just blew me away.

Now despite this season having a woefully inadequate lack lustre two parter and a dreadful standalone episode, it was easily the best thing I watched all year. Better than Heroes, Lost and Battlestar Galactica. Finally a show has come along which has captured my interest in the same way that Buffy did.

That definitely perks my interest. I've caught the sporadic episode with David Tennant, who mostly looks weasel-like when you see bits of eps out of context. So, you're saying that he and the story arc develops such a sway that you become fascinated? I watched Life on Mars in a similarly choppy fashion, but it didn't take me long before I loved the show and think the last ep (which I saw even though I didn't have a continuous through line of the rest), thought that last ep was just about the best one I'd ever seen for any TV show, bar none.
