May. 7th, 2007 06:15 pmI can't do it, y'all. I watched the first fifteen minutes of the latest DW episode, and I can't bring myself to watch the rest. Does anyone not know how that will end? If so, have you ever seen or read any other sci-fi, ever?
But Martha looked pretty in her party dress. That's nice.

General question for PC users: is there a way to exchange the functions of the control key and...um...I think it's the option key? The one next to the space bar. Command/open-apple on a Mac. They're exactly the opposite of what I'm used to after two decades of Mac keyboards, and it's been driving me batty at work. I've heard murmurings about some way to do this sort of thing around the internets, but I fail at Google today. I'd prefer not to have to download a program to do this. Is there something in the control panel to do it, maybe?

Date: 2007-05-08 11:16 am (UTC)Amen! I thought, upon first seeing Ten, that the lingering "waaaaaahhhh" went away with the regeneration (and hell, even Nine didn't get this bad). I thought "Hey, look! Cute! Fun!" and that the whole Harriet Jones thing was just a flukey regeneration thing. And then what we got, well...there's a reason I stopped writing Ten!fic, which was basically that my idea of Ten and Rusty's turned out to be radically different, and I don't especially enjoy writing characters who start shouting on a dime.
I got that far. That, in part, was what made me stop watching.
Yeah, the whole "Every companion has a family" thing really needs to go away. We've seen it once. We don't need to see them go through the same things every single time there's a new companion. Enough with this "grounding the series via companion families" nonsense--I'd like my show a little less grounded, actually (especially if it means we get the hell away from Earth, hahaha)
...I AM NEVER WATCHING THIS SHOW AGAIN.
Yeah, that'll be jumping the shark for sure. If that happens, I'll definitely be burying my head in old-school/Big Finish, possibly indefinitely.
