DID IT SUCK? | Doctor Who [HUMAN NATURE / FAMILY OF BLOOD REVIEW]

[@HarrysMovingMedia]

All this time I've been thinking "I should really review something else" and then my love for the show returned when I binged through these episodes and Blink in one sitting. Marvelous stories, at the height of the revival. Looking forward to hearing what you all think!

[@aleksaivanovic8375]

JON SNOW honestly I doubt it will even come close to this level of greatness . Sadly I think Chibnal just isn’t cabaple of being a showrunner for Doctor who.

[@JONSNOW-jw3zx]

[@onyxowl70]

@@JONSNOW-jw3zx Looked on the wiki page and I'm guessing Chibnall is laying off on the writing and allowing other people to write episodes which does seem promising, however bit put off at how they are going for a more movie block buster style rather than the normal doctor who style. I think the cybermen story-line might make the show a bit more bearable.

[@fictiontheorizer1991]

@@someguy7317 Yes! Someone else gets it! For all their talk about the glory of peace, it's the refusal of confrontation, that is the reason for all the deaths here. And not once is that tragic irony ever realized in it's full impact. David Tennant's run was absolutely maddening sometimes.

[@johnnotrealname8168]

@@fictiontheorizer1991 This is actually a common feature of the Doctor. For starters he can be very callous about death, he rarely reacts when other people are about to be killed in front of him, except a mate, and in this series he moves on when the doctor, whose blood got sucked, died and Martha took the time to close his eyes. I only noticed it recently, after re-watching Doctor Who so much, since he just would not protest (Or bat an eyelid.) when people are dying in front of him. The Doctor has a definite morality which is heavily opposed to killing humans especially and has saved the Earth numerous times from foreign invasion, one must wonder that being an alien he empathises and wants them to live (For example in the Christmas invasion where he sees them off and later the aliens are killed, he has a hatred for man. This is mirrored well in the 11th Doctor's inauguration as well since the Doctor ensures they stay out.). Ultimately he is not perfect, people need to stop trying to claim him to be, but this is consistent with earlier in his run, he gives someone one chance to change and if this is not taken up then he snaps. He is silent and just wreaks vengeance, like killing a bunch of spider babies (Donna's expression at the time was enough to push through how honestly horrifying the Doctor can be.). He rescues Venice from not vampires but that ending is so @~?£ing sad when he is crying that the species will die. Of course there is the Master where the Doctor would never kill him no matter what. While the Doctor is a hero and good, he is an alien.

An interesting fact, but in the McCoy Era novel, there aren't any scarecrows. They were added for this episode. And have you noticed that the Doctor kills the family "justly", in the same way the teachers thought fighting in wars was just and honourable?

[@mrglibb]

He doesn't kill them at all, that's the scariest part of it. They killed, maimed, destroyed peaceful lives and stole the bodies of innocent people in an attempt to steal the doctor's immortality because they thought it was a gift, so the doctor punished them by showing them that living forever is a curse. He gave them the immortality they wanted, and it ended up possibly being the cruelest thing he could have done.

[@TheSmart-CasualGamer]

They would have died eventually. Well, Mother and Sister of Mine wouldn't, but Father of Mine was trapped inside a star. He would have died eventually.

@@TheSmart-CasualGamer Father of Mine wasn't trapped inside a star, but I see why you're misremembering it that way. He was wrapped in chains "forged from a dwarf star alloy" and left in a hidden chamber to rot alone for eternity.

I mean not to be nitpicky but I just from the science babble it sounds less like a self destruct and more like he overloaded some kind of systems which results in the explosion, so standard doctor witty solution. You cant really take the science babble at face value but still, he said something about rerouting energy to a primary heat converter.

On one of the DVD extras, it's noted that when everyone met for the read-though and introduced themselves and the part they'd be playing, David said that he'd be playing "John Smith". Actually, David plays three roles: the Doctor, John Smith, and the Doctor playing John Smith, not for long, but it's subtly different from the John Smith we've come to know. The Doctor really shows his alien-ness when he casually invites Joan to come travelling with him: the man she knew and loved is dead, and yet here he is asking her to try again.

[@qdllc]

The way the Doctor dealt with the Family was bone chilling....it was a concept confirmed in A Good Man Goes to War. If the Doctor was "good" he wouldn't need to observe so many rules. It makes you wonder what the Doctor did before he decided to run away from Gallifrey. Did he do dark deeds he regrets? Was he trained to do unthinkable things and had a crisis of conscience? We don't know, but these moments firmly establish that he has a dark side, and the universe is lucky he chooses to not embrace them.

When I first saw these I had to go onto Iplayer because I thought I'd missed an episode. The start was superb. It was all fantastic. I'd love 'John Smiths book'.

These episodes are the beginning of the Doctor we see during "The Waters of Mars"!

These are my two favourite episode on Doctor Who. Martha is so amazing

this video could be a lot shorter...... the answer is no. lol. great two parter.

[@qayyuma9622]

imo the best two parter of the revival and the doctor was justified in what he did to the family in tens first episode he did say "no second chances im that sort of man ".

When I think of the headmaster the saying "dulce et decorum est, pro patria mori "(sorry if I spelt it wrong but you know what I mean) just raced through my head

The olfactory system is the bodily structures that provide the sense of smell. When The Doctor says “olfactory misdirection”, what he means is that he fooled the family into thinking the scent of the Time Lord was coming from the watch and not from him, by acting like a human. Rather clever in my opinion.
