Doctor Who 9.4



"My first proper alien and he's an idiot," declares one side character when he, a feisty woman named O'Donnel and the Doctor arrive in a little empty town on the hunt for the alien spacecraft at the bottom of a flooded lake. The alien ghost from last week is {temporarily} still alive and yakking his head off, but the mystery remains. Who placed the words on the wall and who is trying to use the ghosts as beacons in the future? While the Doctor runs around trying to figure all this out, Clara is busy evading ghosts to get back her phone so she can keep in touch with the Doctor.

While it was a nice little wrap-up to last week's episode, this episode of Doctor Who was just kind of meh to me. It wasn't super exciting, it wasn't a huge "Oh that's how it worked," and it didn't leave a long-lasting impression. I did really enjoy the rock version of the theme song; that was probably the best part of the whole episode and if it sticks with this new Doctor, I won't object. *smiles*
