A film in 1996 made only limited impact. The show was relaunched 2005 with a massive budget and it has used a lot of Computer Generated Interfaces (first season of the new series was shown late in the evening on DR and a rebroadcast happened a day later in the afternoon). The new show has probably been a pretty fine success for BBC even though it is hard to really measure over the 50+ countries it has been sold to! In 2012 Matt Smith(Doctor Who?), Karen Gillian (Amy Pond), Arthur Darvill (Rory Pond) was at Comic Con at a Nerd HQ Q&A and with Steven Moffat (Executive Producer) and Caroline Skinner (Executive Producer) in the Doctor Who Panel. You can also see them Featured at the Nerdist premium youtube partner channel. How the Ponds get out of the series? My personal guess is that they realise that they need the real world more than the doctor after Rorys dad getting sick and a very unpleasant travel.  | ||

+ Show Spoiler + I feel like it was a missed opportunity to not bring in Rory's dad at least once in the episode. Most likely at the end after his uplifting message to them last week. This isn't a problem with the episode but in my opinion a missed opportunity. Still incredibly good and a fitting end to the Amy Pond story-line | ||

I felt like I was going to be with rory/amy killing themselves too, but their survival really cut into that for me. Thats fine I guess, it doesnt have to be super sad, but I'm a little shocked you people found it so anyway. Their sudden survival jarred me right out of that mindset. I agree that threw me off. It would have been a way more dramatic and fitting ending.. I do like the afterthoughts page though. | ||

I still dont understand why he cant see them again, so he cant travel back to manhattan during that time period anymore. What exactly is to stop Rory and Amy traveling to a different bloody city so he can pick them up. Or you know River moving them through time when she goes back to give Amy the book anyway.... | ||

Sometimes time can be rewritten... other times it cant. By now I just roll with the punches of the show and accept what I'm told lol because it never makes sense when you think about it again. Just to bring up a similar example, remember madame de pompadour or whatever her name was in versailles? She died before he could see her again because he was too late... Why didnt he just take the tardis to a few months earlier so he could say goodbye to her? Timey Wimey | ||

Whining about latest episode: + Show Spoiler + I thought the episode started off great, but then went to shit as soon as they found a dying Rory. I would've much preferred them to die after they jumped off the building. Now instead we get some half-assed ending by some "weak survivor" of the angels. The reason I'm calling it half assed is because it doesn't make any sense, first off, a paradox would kill them(The angels) all? Guess not, creating another paradox would rip new york apart? What paradox would there be if they continued traveling with the Doctor and ended up dying at the point they would have? Not to mention the attempt at giving them a "happy ending". I can't believe so many people thought this was a fitting ending. They died a meaningless death caused by a survivor of their "ultimate sacrifice" my head was on my desk from lameness by the end of this episode. | ||

Hopefully the new girl will inject some much needed x factor I want to know who gets to deliver the news to all the people Rory and Amelia had a life constructed around. I'm comforted by the fact that the new companion is hot though. | ||
