I'm watching on BBCA, but I'm still d/l the UK airings because the commercial free viewing is more suitable to my understanding of the episodes. And I get it 3 to 4 hours beforehand.
Mark Sheppard rocked his role and I loved that it was his own father who played his character's older self. I don't think we do know who shot the Doctor. Afterall, the girl got out of the suit - we don't even know for sure who the girl was (will be) or who could have possibly ended up in the suit. Amy being pregnant, but not pregnant, is like a fluctuation in time-space. Like a phase shift. But I don't understand how that will play out. The girl being able to regenerate raises all sorts of traumatic issues. I go apoplectic thinking about them.
I'm in the mood to watch a River Song marathon wherein I watch them from HER perspective. "Impossible Astronaut/Day of the Moon" followed by "The Pandorica Opens/The Big Bang" followed by "Time of the Angels/Flesh and Stone" followed by "Silence in the Library/Forest of the Dead". Her timeline in reverse is kind of creepy and every time we meet her the more sad I feel because we know more of her fate that she doesn't but we learn more of the Doctor's acquaintance with her from our/his perspective. Only Moffat.
The Silents are creepy ass mo-fos. They do have an almost typical Grey Alien look to them. They also result in memory loss, and therefore time lapses that are typical of alien abduction stories. They seem to explain perfectly all the alien stories we hear about. With their memory altering ability it just makes them scarier. Sid mentioned a comment that you could torment your kids who are watching by marking them with ticks after they go to sleep. It's cruel, but amusing. Do it to your hubby. :-)
