Holy shit those last five minutes. And ugh, Hogarth.
Ugh, another «the Doctor holds a crappy sappy 15 minute speech and all is magically resolved and all issues that had before been raised magically dissipate into thin air» ending. Great, just what the show needed. More plot holes than the episode had frames, too. And don't even get me started on the double Oswin representing peace or some bullshit side-plot and the «President of Earth» thing returning.
Especially disappointing because the first episode of this two-parter, despite all of its flaws, at least seemed somewhat promising. On the bright side, Jenna absolutely nailed playing an «evil» character, and Capaldi made the best out of the mess he was given.
Silly story (though with a reasonable moral) and weak, uncharacteristic dialogue. Not a fan of the episode.
Twilight is useless, the episode.
Oh wow, an episode that's actually good. Thought they lost the ability to make those halfway through the season. One point of criticism thought: While I understand the repetitiveness was an intentional style choice, it could have done with just a little less in places. Especially in the end.
«I sure hope everypony else is having a better time» – That's what I also thought when watching this. All-around crap episode. Weak plot and forced, uncharacteristic & cringeworthy dialogue.
One of the best ever.
