I immediately liked Tennant, so perhaps that's why I liked him better.

I think we agree about the angels, they were so badass and the thought of them anywhere and anytime made them scary. Knowing there are hundreds if not thousands of them for some weird reason makes them less scary.

As for the episode, the end is how the episode began. How he figured out how to otsmart the angels. It really was a brilliant story with an amazing twist and I believe it was nominated for several awards as well.

Lastly, I have searched IMDB and there are few tv episodes rated that high or were as well received
As far as first impressions, Smith sold me in his regeneration scene. And by the time the Eleventh Hour was over, I was all over him.

Blink ended how it began which has been done. It's a stable time loop. It's so frequent it has an entry or possibly more on TV Tropes. It's good, but not brilliant.

May have to rewatch everything to be sure.
Do you mean episodes, or the specials?

Kinda hated the End of Time.

Loved the last couple episodes of series 4 though. There were some bad, even cheesey elements, but....I cared more for Donna leaving than any other member of the cast at that point.

D. Mormon allegory.
E. or 5. Or possibly that roman numeral thing. Hitler Sparkles.

I don't know why, perhaps because I heard that Tennant was a huge DW fan and was a life dream to play him that I knew he loved the role and played to the best of his ability.

With Blink, I love its the gold standard for reference. They created an absolutely terrifying monster and did a great story as well. It was interesting for me, because after I watched it, I watched it again to see how everything fit together so well having already viewed the ending. I think you know what I am trying to say here that it was one of those "special" episodes that you always rememer (Like Empty Child/Doctor Dances, The Eleventh Hour, A Good Man Goes To War.)

1) What the fuck
2A) are you
4) talking
Q) about?
