Doctor Who Christmas Special
+ The bad out of the way first: I really disliked the way Abigail was handled. She was LOVELY, but also there to be pretty and selfless and uncomplaining and a source of manpain and dead - and literally refridgerated, wtf. So, you know, there was that. *already plotting fix-it fic*
+ The solstice and Christmas are the only midwinter holidays, show? Really? Eesh. The halfway out of the darkness motif was lovely, though.
+ Also, a lesser complaint really but not NEARLY enough Amy! Her as the ghost of Christmas present was awesome but I wanted moooore! AMY! (Her moments with both Rory and the Doctor were completely adorable and lovely, though. *draws hearts around them all forever*)
+ Things I loved: the time-travel and memory stuff in this that was all very Moffat-y and also great. A lot of really lovely little moments, like the Doctor being terrible at card tricks, hee! <3 And just in general, ELEVENTY, DOCTOR OF MY HEART, how so awesome? :DDD Also, space fish! Again! I approve.
+ THE TRAILER OMG. a;lsjdas; SO EXCITED, MUST ACQUIRE TO WATCH MANY TIMES. Things I noticed to squee over this time around: the Ood! Amy not telling the Doctor everything! RIVER! NAKED RIVER! RIVER SHOOTING THE DOCTOR'S HAT OFF! The spaceship from The Lodger! a;lsdjas We can has season 6 now?

And I think I fell heartily in love with Abigail, so much so that I sort of shushed the instant "wait, what the hell kind of male generated plotline is this?" and enjoyed her voice and face and tralalala living in denial.
