Filler Up!

Filler episode. “The Lodger” was pleasant, and warm, but filler nonetheless. It really was this year’s “Love and Monsters”. To be honest, I watched while doing a bevy of other things, so perhaps I missed something of great magnitude, but I think the big WOW of the episode was the teaser for the next episode.

Now before I start talking about the next episode, let me just say, “WHAT DO YOU MEAN THE END OF THE SERIES IS UPON US?!?!?” I can’t believe there are only two episodes left. I won’t even discuss the “specials (which weren’t)”, but for the last few years, I’ve been sitting here tapping my finger on the desk thinking, “Just wrap this up so I can go on with my life” as time went by. By the time the last two episodes of S2, 3, and 4 arrived, I was ready to get it over with. I do NOT feel that way this time. I feel like we’ve been given just a taste of this new experience, and I want more. A lot more. *sigh*

On to the preview: The Pandorica. Still don’t know what it is, why it’s important, or what it holds. Old faces are back, which I personally look forward to seeing. I’m not claustrophobic, but there’s something non-threatening in all the empty space in the cave. I’m certain that it’s all very, very threatening, which will no doubt make me feel foolish for thinking there’s enough space to maneuver out of harm’s way. Heh.

My one big hope is that the next two episodes are not striving to be the epicness of all epicocity (i.e. Journey’s End). There appear to be many elements coming together, and with a title like “Big Bang” we’re sure to have some big things happening, but as long as it stays confined to our Doctor and his companions, I’m ok with that.

  16. Have you ever considered about including a little bit more than just your articles?

    I mean, what you say is important and all. Nevertheless just imagine if you added some great
    graphics or videos to give your posts more, “pop”! Your content is excellent but with images and video clips, this website could definitely be one of the very best in its field.
    Great blog!
