Hmph.

Good: Yay, we finally get Doctor Who in the States!

Bad: Commercials seriously mess with the flow of the episodes. Skiffy saw fit to cut chunks out of it, too. Should've expected that, really, but I'm a bit irked that they cut out the moment at the end of EOTW where Rose lays her head on teh Doctor's shoulder. Not to mention Cassandra's "old Earth ballad" line before the playing of "Toxic"; that really needed some introduction. And I think they must have cut something out of the intro to "Rose," although it was probably just incidental shots. It did seem like the BBC versions have longer beats in a lot of the scenes. Bah.

Still, outweighed by it finally being on the air here, woot!

Also: an entire community for Harry Potter/Doctor Who crossovers. Hmmm.

Yeah, I really didn't think there would need to be any cutting. Bah, commercials.

They cut this from the end of the second episode, which made me sad. :(

um, that link appears to be no more. I presume you're talking about the head on shoulder thing?

I've already decided to get the dvd set when it comes out... so I guess I'll see it then.

Oh, poo.

Naturally. *g*

Mmmm, DVDs. I'd love to get them when they come out here, but as they're BBC, they'll probably be quite expensive, and I will be a just-graduated unemployed sort of person, so...yeah. Perhaps not. *sigh*

They surely cannot be as pricey as the Star Trek sets. That was pure extortion on Paramount's part!
