I can see where Danny is coming from. Although I did enjoy the acting by both Tennant and Tate and the character of Donna has been made better. Plus it was nice to see a bit more compassionate Doctor even if hes still brooding over Rose.

But thats as far as it goes. The aliens were just absurd and pathetic, if not cute. The stupidness of the plot was evident and I just sat in silence trying to figure out how on earth the team have run out of ideas and if I cracked RTD's head open I would see a Black Hole where his Brain might be. The theme was just too sharp and plain to be good Doctor Who and I preferred the original, much more Sci Fi and more jazzed up. Doctor Who is becoming a program for 3 years old now. RTD is quite happy to focus attention on Torchwood while leaving a classic icon of TV to rot and decompose. I am guessing they probably sense this seeing as how Rose is back.

I have no problem with Tate and Tennant, they are making the best of whats becoming an even worse situation. This episode gets a 2/10. I am not ready to give up on the series just yet, as next weeks episode does look quite nice. I'm dreading 'The Doctors Daughter'
