Re: Doctor Who 7x01 Discussion! SPOILERS AHOY

I thought it succeeded at its main aims, without being great. It:

a) reintroduced the main characters
b) got lots of daleks into the season opener, and then teased with a "next time" that had dinosaurs on a spaceship
c) got to play with the history while also giving a reason why no future dalek episodes ever need to refer to any of the older episodes, setting them free

I liked the "remind them who I am" and then deleting him from their memory thing. I liked Amy seeing the mad daleks as people, although I thought it could have been executed better. I laughed at the "daleks disguised as people, daleks on the bus!" aspect, which is so aimed at teasing children and getting them excited. I thought the "she's really a dalek" twist was obvious, but then we were probably supposed to have guessed and got that dread at the situation.

I thought they slightly overdid the "I'm so perky" aspect of dalek-girl. But I did get choked up at the Amy/Rory conversation where Rory was trying to give Amy his wristband: the whole of it, from beginning to "why didn't he just tell us?".

So, I thought it did its job, and I enjoyed it, but it wasn't a great episode.
