Generally insipid and wishy washy. I would smash that Catherine Jenkins she's bang tidy.
However the new series trailer after it looked rather interesting, so it wasn't a total waste of time.

I don't normally watch it, but I gave it a chance and it was alright to be honest. Considering they painted themselves into a corner doing another 'Christmas Carol' themed episode, I think it worked quite well. Matt Smith does a fairly decent impression of David Tennant (I mean really, make him a bit different).
Fuck Jenkins, it's Pond all the way (even though her only role in the episode was to stand around looking kinky).

Yeah the episode was a bit meh overall, but it is a tad rare to see Sir Michael Gambon over here so that was nice.
New season looks spiffy and awesome.

It was Who. I don't judge Who. I turn my brain off and watch Who. Therefore Who is good.

I look upon it like Christmas Carol with a Dr Who twist rather than Dr Who with a touch of Christmas Carol.
It was alright. Couple of glaring plot holes, but the flying fish bit was interesting.

I thought it was quite a clever adaptation of A Christmas Carol and was personally glad the companions weren't in it much, I find them annoying. I also found the opera singing was grating and fortunately I was watching a recording so I could skip through that.
