MARK WATCHES DOCTOR WHO HAS RETURNED! And oh, how I have missed the Ponds and the Doctor. In celebration of such an event, it only stands that we must hold a liveblog party in honor! So get your computers and commenting fingers read, because Doctor Who is back!
oh god six weeks and six new episodes. I AM SO EXCITED. Also: Dear episode, please do not be full of Nazi-wank, even though I am kinda iffy about this episode in the first place? OH GOD. Shall we?
This liveblog starts relative to you. So if it is airing on your television, start liveblogging away in the comments. Same for if you happen to be watching it online by less-than-legal means. (Though I would just time it with another time zone so you can comment with other people!) We already do this with Fringe and it works rather nicely. To avoid seeing spoilery comments regarding the episode from past livebloggers, I merely stay on the first page of comments and comment away, only going back after it’s over in order to comment on what other people said.
Sound fine? Just make sure not to post spoilers before this episode airs.
As was tradition earlier this year, the review for this episode will go up on Monday afternoon. OH GOD I AM SO EXCITED.
RORY PUNCHED HITLER. I CAN DIE HAPPILY NOW.
The awkward moment when you realize you've saved Hitler's life.
HOLY SHIT RORY
"SHUT UP, HITLER"
"HITLER, IN THE CUPBOARD"
BEST EPISODE EVER Y/Y????
I think Rory must've had fun with that one.
FUCK YEAH RORY POND!
IN THE CUPBOARD WITH HIM
'Rory take Hitler and put him in that cupboard over there' – One of the stranger sentences to come out of Doctor Who.
Loved that line so much, will probably quote it topeople who have no idea what I’m talking about all week
'Put Hitler in the cupboard'
"It's her"?
Oh no she's been shot…kay then
OHSHITNO THEY'RE NOT GOING AFTER THE DOCTOR NOW ARE THEY?!…wait..HER?!
Well looks like Mel isn't going to last long.
SAY WHAT?
WEIRDED OUT (but don't die that would be sad)
NO WAY
NO WAY NO WAY NO WAY NO WAY
O MY GOD IT'S RIVER!!!!!
WAHT
NO FUCKING WAY!!!!!
Aaaaaah I knew she was talking like River!
ARE YOU RIVER?
WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT??????????????????????
fuck.
WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAATTTTTT!!!!!!!!!
HELLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!
FUCKING KNOCKED OVER MY ORANGE JUICE
Is that because the Doctor didn't come back in time to move your juice?
HOLY CRAP IT'S RIVER!!!
…THE FUCK?!
Awwww River, that's totally weird and kinda messed up but Awwww
HAHAHHAHAHAHA
SHE'S SO…. YOUNG!!!!
Good to see you River. She's gone all Doctorish.
i really hope Amy didn't tell Mel ALL about her relationship with Rory… o_O
river please stop
you are making me awkward
i feel the need to cough over you la la la
Oh Alex I love you so much.
River, GET IN MAH BED. Thank you please.
…jumpers?
Jodphurs. 😉
That makes rather more sense, thank you kindly 😀
Yes! Confirmation! It was River.
Ohhhh…aww they're good. I forget how much I love Matt and Alex together.
ROFL banana for gun, hee.
Oh FUCK that's right!! She's evil now!!
is this going to mess up the Doctor River timeline?
I was thinking about that, but decided in the end that it couldn't because there's too much stuff later on for River
Oh not the flashy vision thing again.
Evil River, this is brilliant!
Is it strange that I seem to like her more that way?
I knew that you'd know that I'd know that you'd know I know….
HER LIPSTICK!
RIVER WHY
The most powerful and dangerous arsenal in the Whoniverse: River Song's make up bag.
Well I guess this means the Ponds never will get to raise baby Melody 🙁
plus she's a woman? what?
'Plus she's a woman'
Not cool Doctor and not cool Moffat.
"I was on my way to a gay gypsy bar mitzvah when I thought, eh, the Third Reich's a bit rubbish."
RIVER YOU'RE THE BIGGEST TROLL EVER AREN'T YOU?
Oh god, she's so evil. I FUCKING LOVE IT.
Rory be punching people left right and center this episode, damn!
Who are the fuck are the mini-people and how do they know so much?
'Time can be rewritten. Remember Kennedy.'
ROSE!!! MARTHA!!! DONNA!!!
Ahahaha, lot of guilt there Doctor.
DONNA!
"Come on, there must be someone left in the universe that I haven't screwed over yet."
Awww Doctor <3
*wibble* Donna!
AWWW PADDINGTON!POND!
WHY CAN'T REGENERATE
Fish fingers and custard 🙂
FISHFINGERS AND CUSTARD
if that is the cure
ALL THE HIGH FIVES
(may even forgive Moffat for that incredibly shitty line about River also being a woman and being all unbalanced :|)
CUSTAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARD!!
A very appropriate battle-cry, methinks.
A terminator reference?
hahaha oh Evil!River
Well that's one way to go shopping.
FISH FINGERS AND CUSTARD!
A room full of fleeing screaming people, Amy and Rory must be so proud.
AHAHAH i love you Rory
How'd she get the sonic?!
didn't he give it to her? i can't remember
Doctor gave her the sonic while he was languishing of poison I believe
Yeah I think I must have missed that the first time. I caught it when rewatching earlier. I blame excitement over a new episode for that lapse.
wow, so comforting, space squids
The Silence and the Academy of the Question. Interesting.
oooo, I thought she said The Cylons!
TOPHAT!!! OMGGGG <3
OHSHIT
BUT OMG HIS SUIT AND TOPHAT! He looks so swish.
He looks so…. Dashing!
TOPHOT DOCTOR! IS THIS WEDDING DOCTOR?
'Are you serious?' 'Never knowingly'
Heee sonic cane?! Okay then.
I really love those robot things
And their voices
rock that goddamn top hat, Doctor. Glad to know that we have more than bunk beds in common, though I tie purple ribbons around my hat <3
well, that's one way to parent
Matt why so good at physical comedy? That's so awesome.
Ohhh…is he going to be poisoned for the rest of the series and the shooting at the lake is a mercy kill like…Snape and Dumbledore type deal?
OOOOOOO!!!! I wonder….
argh I keep thinking she's saying "Cylons" instead of "The Silence"
Me Too! I thought what? A crossover?!
my brain would probably melt O_O
I wonder how well the angst of BSG would fit in DW.
we'd have to bring back Tennant

I've read that fanfic.
The Silence aren't a species! OMG! Wow, we made a wrong assumption.
Ooooh explanation tiem
Well of course we don't know what the question is.
But the answer is, of course, 42.
That’s all I could think of throughout that whole answer/question exchange 🙂
I bet the question is: Doctor Who?
Stupid guess 🙂
That was my guess.
Yeah, that's exactly what I thought.
lol that guy looked a bit like Captain Kirk for a second
So the sonic works by pointing and thinking? Works for me.
GO AMY!
I rewatched Silence in the Library just yesterday and it is wrecking my brain to see Evil!River
Also watched Girl in the Fireplace and then around eleven became aware of ticking and could not sleep for another four fucking hours.
also christ amy, knight templar much? Those guys weren't that bad and you basically condemned them to die by googly metal squid
I thought that was kinda fucked up too, guess it's like hitting the wheel on a ship so it's going to run aground then running, banking on the fact that it has life boats to make you not a murderer. Still really fucked up though.
River music! Cmon River, do the right thing and help!
River help your parents!
🙁 🙁 🙁
The TARDIS taught River to fly her 🙂
The Doctor was busy that day.
NO PONDS DON'T START SAYING GOODBYES!
Awwwww so the TARDIS taught River to fly her? *wibble*
Even after Mels shot her! Sexy must be very forgiving – but I guess that's easier when you can see all of time and space. She can keep River's rebellious/murderous Time Lord adolescence in perspective.
Also, River is kind of also the Tardis' baby
DOCTOR DONT BE DEAD PLEEEASE. I MEAN, I KNOW YOU PROBABLY WON'T BUT STILL.
River learned how to fly the Tardis from the best. Of course she learned it from Sexy.
I'm waiting on River/TARDIS fics to pop up after this.
eeeeeeeeeewwww that's her mom (kinda).
THAT'S NEVER STOPPED THE FANFIC WRITERS BEFORE.
But he can't be dead
OMGWTFHOWWHATIDON'TWHAT
HE CAN'T BE AGAIN BUT HOW BUT WHAT….MOFFAAAAAAAAT!
NONONONONO
Can't she use her regeneration powers or something??
wait! how does this work?
…it just does?
Look on the bright side; we now have a way to get around the regeneration limit for the Doctor.
Doctor stop dying! You're gonna break Rory's record soon.
HA!!! CALLED IT.
