annissamazingI've finished making all my flashcards and I've outlined two of four essays. I took a couple of hours off in order to watch the newest Doctor Who episode with ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
flydye8. I love watching these episodes with her! It's neat to see her reactions come through as I'm typing mine.
I've enjoyed these first two episodes more than I did most of Season 5, but there was something in "Day of the Moon" that stopped me cold.
I didn't mind River's jump in the pool. I actually kind of liked it despite the cheesy splash of water coming up out of the TARDIS.
What the Doctor does to stop the Silence... He just implanted the suggestion to murder every single one of them on sight in the minds of every human being for the rest of time. He basically ordered the human race to commit genocide and judging from Canton's bow-tie fixing, most people won't have any choice but to murder the Silence any time they see one, even if the aliens are not doing anything bad. Did this strike anyone else as extremely out-of-character?
