2//End of the World

So first off I really liked this episode. It's probably my obsession with dystopian novels and culture that made me enjoy it so much. One of my favorite parts was how when Lady Cassandra came with classic items from earth like a jute box, which she called an Ipod, and played "classic" music. I find that interesting because when you think about what we learn in history classes, we have no idea whether any of that is true because naturally humans exaggerate and forget things. So for all we know something that happened in the middle ages could be completely fabricated by human error. I also liked seeing the other alien races and I agree with Rose they did look very, alien. One thing that bothered me was how Jade looked very humanoid while the other trees looked...well like trees. Was it because she was a girl? I don't know but I was sad when she died cause I did like her. She almost reminded me of the Ents from LotR.
It wasn't a surprise that the Adherents of the Repeated Meme were in on the scheme to kill everyone. They just looked kind of evil with the dark cloaks and the raspy voices. I was slightly surprised by Cassandra being a part of the plan but when it came down to it, she acted odd the entire episode being over dramatic about everything. I always think when you try to make yourself look not guilty you end up looking worse.
The relationship between Rose and the Doctor starting to form some more and I did like how they got frustrated at each other. Because of the situation in makes sense that Rose would get a little bothered by the whole situation, it would be overwhelming. I'm also really interested to hear more about the war that destroyed the Doctors world. I hope that is explained more in the future. Overall I think they was a good second episode and it defiantly made me want to continue watching and writing this posts.

Till next time
