Dec. 25th, 2007 09:42 pmChristmas was really low-key and really excellent this year. I'm hoping for a similar repeat in 2008!
( Voyage of the Damned )
I've also finished The Sarah Jane Adventures, which was expectedly excellent (especially "Whatever Happened to Sarah Jane" - I think Alan is officially my favourite) and a bunch of First Doctor stories. "The War Machines" wasn't bad (lame character write-out, but Polly and Ben did pretty well for a first go-around and I loved the classic sci-fi theme of 'intelligent computer goes bad', which sounds like a spoiler, but seriously, all you have to do is pay attention and you understand what's coming), "The Daleks" is unexpectedly good, each episode actually being rather satisfying on its own. Susan has delighted and surprised me, all of the companions have. I am pretty much still in love with Barabara and am falling pretty hard for Ian too. "The Keys to Marinus" was a story I'd started some months ago and enjoyed and it didn't let me down all that much on conclusion either. It surprised me in a few pleasant ways.
