geebsTV commentary:
Nikita- Seriously, Nikita can be so frustrating. She thinks by running away and handling things on her own, she's keeping her friends safe, but their her friends, they're going to be helping her whether she wants them to or not, so since they're gonna be working towards the same goals anyways, why not work together instead of being all emo?!
Its amusing that they excuse Alex being alive even though she's out in the open (ha, on Birkhoff describing her as Batman, its kinda apt) with Amanda and the shop being all, "we can't kill her yet!" and leave it at that. But again, they need some excuse for her to be around. It'd be kinda boring if she was just undercover like everyone else. Her being a big name rich philanthropist chick gives her something interesting.
Doctor Who- Aah! That was so confusing, and at first I didn't think it made sense, but going through the wikis, I guess it kinda does. Them hiding Galifrey and forgetting and just thinking they destroyed it, sure that's fine. What bugged me though was, if it wasn't really destroyed, then what was that whole thing with Rassilon and the Master? (also, since they referred to all 13 of them, are they making it that Capaldi is indeed 13, Smith is really 12, Tennant 11, and Eccleston 9? Or are they just keeping them as 9-12 and counting Hurt as an incarnation, but not in the numbering scheme? Also, what, at the end, was that Hurt regenerating to Eccleston? What did he die of? Being tired of it all?)
I had to look it up, and I guess Rassilon did all the stuff with the Master to recall Galifrey from the LAST DAY of the time war. I thought it was from right before the Doctor destroyed everything. But I guess he could be recalling it from before all the stuff in this ep happened, and once the plan failed things went on as they did, and then War Doctor blew everything up.
But still, I understand there's billions of innocents he was saving, but doesn't that mean Rassilon and all those assholes are still alive? Or is it assumed the Master and he killed each other when Galifrey went back? Otherwise, its like, okay, all those non-dicks are alive, but then so are the evil government folks, so if the Doctor does re-find Galifrey, won't those guys be in charge? And with the Daleks not around to keep them in check, they could be all evil? Or are they presuming now that the war is over, those folks will be much less jerks? Hopefully they'll explain it when the Doctor inevitably finds Galifrey.
The second thing I was confused about was old Fourth. Are they implying the Curator guy was the retired Doctor, that he turned into an old version of his Fourth self? But we just saw 10 and 11 talking about Tenzalore and the fall of the doctor. If he dies in some big battle, how can he be back at this museum curating?!
