I HAVE NO WORDS. THAT EPISODE WAS AMAZING. SERIOUSLY, ONE OF MY ABSOLUTE FAVORITE EPISODES OF NEW WHO, HANDS DOWN. I AM IN LOVE WITH RUSSELL T DAVIES ALL OVER AGAIN BECAUSE HE CLEARLY LOVES 'LORD OF THE FLIES' THE SAME WAY I DO. ABSOLUTE FUCKING LOVE FROM ME, RTD.

Seriously though, this was such a good Tenth Doctor episode. Such a good summary of who he is, I think. The beginning bits, all the fade-ins to all the different conversations? That was painfully good and sweet and heart-warming. And then the slow build into hysteria? And that horrific silence in the aftermath? Ugh, I'm sorry, I'm just overwhelmed. It was so good. I can't even articulate my feelings.

And Donna and the Doctor! So fucking sweet. I love them. I nearly cried with my love for them.

Tennant fucking BLEW MY MIND at least six different times, as did pretty much everyone else in the episode. Even Claude, who only had like six lines. The performances were unbelievable. The direction, too.

PiC would definitely be number two if I had to make a list of my favorite episodes so far this season, but it didn't give me that same wow feeling this episode gave me. I only saw it the once, though, so who knows, maybe if I went back and watched it again I'd appreciate it more.

Nah, you are right. It was definitely a good one, but doesn't compare to "Utopia" or "Midnight." It's a shame really that the writing most of this season hasn't been as up to par as the first three because -- as much as I do love Rose -- Donna is just a new definition of awesome.

Hopefully, the final three eps will carry on as awesome as this one and we'll get a great send-off to the season and RTD's tenure.
