I'm not a Doctor Who fan, so I know absolutely nothing about this. I may be getting things entirely wrong here. Still, this is what this argument sounds like to me:

* An episode is written as comedic
* It has an ending that's really depressing
* That ending is supposed to set up similar scenes in later episodes that are written as depressing
* That's good writing for setting up the arc, and not bad writing for treating as comedic something we're later supposed to take as depressing

That whole "It was comedic then! But the same thing is depressing now! Why aren't you crying now? It's sad this time!" thing is why I gave up reading Sluggy Freelance. It just didn't feel consistent. Like I said earlier, I'm approaching this from an outside perspective, but I can at least say that this description doesn't really make me want to watch Doctor Who.

Yeah, it's not really encouraging me either. I can see how it might work with something where the fridge horror behind the comedy is subtler (and then the other scenes make it more overt and it's addressed as an actual problem), but... well, that kind of thing isn't even fridge horror, I'd be grossed out as I was watching.
