Doctor Who 4x08: Silence in the Library
In sum: I am so bloody scared right now and that was awesome and epic and suspensful and gut-wrenching and Moffat for the win and can it be next Saturday yet and I am never sleeping with the lights out again!
Post written as I watch:
* It's set in the 51st century! Eee, Jack! 2 minutes in and I'll already be watching the episode looking for ways to make new personal canon about this. I have Harkness on the brain lately, I don't mind telling you (epic Jack fic is on the way, while I mention it, though god knows when it'll be finally bloody finished).
* Did we just get more Doom Foreshadowing? D: "Always a death at the end." a;lsjdasj
* Oh, ack. I hate iPlayer. Well, no, I love it dearly for letting me watching Who before downloads show up, but dammit my connection can barely handle it. All of these notes are written in gaps where the programme's loading. I predict already there will be many more gaps than notes.
* GUYS. Donna + the Doctor = greatest Team TARDIS ever. I just. They are so great. Co-ordinated movements! I mean, I adore Rose and Martha and Mickey and Jack and everyone else, but these two are just so good as a team, whereas the others were all just fantastic characters in general, you know?
* Face with urgent message delivered in monotone! Freaking out already here, people. *clings* You know, I think the knowledge that it's a Moffat episode is seriously heightening my fear here, because I fully suspect things will only get creepier aaaah.
* Did Donna just kick down a door?? OMG LOVE.
* So it's interesting that the Doctor even lies to Donna, who he's very bff and on an equal footing with. Ah, you lovable psychotic bastard.
* "Almost every species in the universe has an irrational fear of the dark, but they're wrong. Because it's not irrational." ;alsdjkas that scared the bejesus out of me just in the trailer, and now? Eep!
* "I'm pretty boy?" "Yes! Ooh, that came out a bit quick." asl;jdas SO CANON.
* Who is Alex Kingston's character?? The suspense, it is mind-boggling! Haha. And omg, is that a TARDIS diary? How exciting! I want.
* ... wait. Are we doing a 'Time Traveller's Wife' plot? Is that what's happening? *dies of awesome*
* Hee! The extra buttons on TV remote controls really do do something! That's amazing!
* The Doctor really is in top form tonight. This, if such a thing is possible, may make me even more excited for the Moffat era.
* Gah. Ignored!girl is frustrating - she's going to die in a minute, yes? I never like this attitude of some people are a bit too rubbish to go on adventures, especially when they act much more like you or I would in these sorts of omgterrifying situations.
* That woman, and Donna, and oh my heart.
* "So why don't you know me? Where am I in the future?' iPlayer you rat bastard stop stalling on me oh my god oh my god Donna why are you so fucking doooooomed.
* FLESH EATING SHADOWS WHAT??? *shrieks* And they're on Earth???
* Okay now the unsolicited pauses are actually adding to the suspense. Aaaaaaah.
* No, seriously, I have a tendency to be a bit scared of my own shadow while walking home in any case. Now? Curse you, Moffat!
* Oh god oh god I can barely watch this any more and what the hell just happened to Donna and oh my god.

But she seems so hurt that he doesn't recognize her. That leads me to think love interest of some sort.
I am just so glad that I have someone to share my bed with tonight. This story arc is soooooooooooo good.
