Okay, The Devil's Chord was absolutely great. Jinx Monsoon actually was pretty amazing as Maestro. And I'm loving the idea that Maestro and Toymaker are these demigod creatures. Her campiness just fed straight into the Toymaker's from his previous episode.

When I saw the original 1965 Toymaker episode, he came across less as another Time Lord as it was implied he was, but as a demigod in control of his own little pocket dimension. Looks like RTD is really playing that demigod idea up. I hope we see more of these demigods.

But...that extended ending was a bit much and really set that episode back quite a bit for me. If there's anything that's going to ruin this season of Dr Who it's the RTD levels of camp and self-referential winks and nods. Ending the show at the "there's always a twist at the end" would have made me far happier than the five minutes we got after that.

But good show. Pity about that ending.

Finally catching up with Dr Who and Star Trek. Erigah was another episode that just hit it out of the park. This season is turning out to be a really great swan song for the series.

So. Doctor Who's "Space Babies." I...I couldn't tell if this was bad or good. It was a lot of both. But I decided that this one shot, and what it is, definitely tipped it over to...Very Questionable.

Still not sure if I'm going to like this new season...but...this is...a...Very Questionable start.
