"I loved you for that"

[muneca_brava]

So, I watched WoM a second time, and listened to the commentary. And it's still just as depressing and scary. I was not in shock as much anymore, but I still spend the last 20 minutes going "oh no" and biting my nails.

The podcast was fun because it is basically RTD, DT and Julie Gardner having a hoot for what is probably the last time (with microphones in the room, at least). Apart from that there wasn't any exciting new information, although they did giggle a lot about the final. I love how excited they all are about it :)
I am going to miss all of them. I think it's very rare to actually miss the producer of a show, but Julie Gardner is just such a lovely person.

You know, it didn't register the first time 'round that Ten actually told Adelaide he loved her. Not in that way, but still a bit of a milestone.


I have absolutely regained my love for DW. The last couple of months, I was becoming sort of indifferent to it. I'd found new fun shows, I didn't care what Moffat was doing, didn't care about DT leaving anymore (well I did care but just accepted it). The excitement was gone.
I just watched Sunday night out of loyalty,in a way. Because I still call myself a fan. But with this episode the squee is back, full-force.

And that means I'm really getting scared and sad, really, that RTD and DT are almost gone. And very anxious about S5 (No, SM, I will not call it Season 1), because while I want to give Moffat the benefit of the doubt and not judge everything he does because of one horrible episode (GitF if anyone was wondering), I do think that RTD's particular characterization and main plotlines are what make me love it.

I'm going to give it a fair chance, and I do believe Matt Smith could win me over. But I doubt it will be equal in my adoration to the show as RTD made it.

I was very bothered when he said "...I loved you for that." I wanted very much to remind him of a certain blonde girl whom he never told he loved, even when he was hurtling himself into a pit full of Satan, but that's just the crazy shipper in me.

Matt Smith, I have faith in you. SM, not so much.

It's weird - it didn't bother me that much. I think I saw the "loved" more as a figure of speech than any real expression of emotional feeling. In the same way that I could see Ten going, "Ooh, I love nibbles." Not to say that Adelaide is exactly like his love for food, but the expression "I liked you for that" or "that really struck a note with me, well done!" just doesn't have the same ring to it. XD

I know it wasn't love-love, but after him spending 4 seasons staunchly avoiding the word, it was a bit weird. idk.

Well, it didn't bother me exactly, because I know it isn't that kind of love. But after all the trouble he goes through NOT to say it to ANYONE (especially Rose), it does pop out here.

Which is why it's strange it didn't register with me until RTD pointed it out himself on the commentary.

Matt Smith, I have faith in you. SM, not so much.
Me too. But, I live in hope.

I have absolutely regained my love for DW.

That's how I feel, too! I've been going OMG OMG SHOW OMG :D :D these last few days. And it feels really good.

Also I have new icons of Ten being crazy and angsty, so I'm enjoying getting to use them.

It does feel good. It's still the only show I can get this excited about.

Also I have new icons of Ten being crazy and angsty, so I'm enjoying getting to use them.

It feels wrong to use any of my happy icons. I keep going back to this one. It'll be my default until christmas, probably :)
