Rest assured I was on the Internet within minutes registering my disgust throughout the world

Just saw this week's Doctor Who and you know, the episode was decent, all things considered, it had its moments, had some instances of human beings actually acting human, didn't feature any gratutitous kissing (at least, not involving Ten)...

...and then I saw the previews for next week before turning it off.

Oh god.

Oh god.

OH JOHN RINGO GOD NO.

I don't believe I've hollered "WHAT?! WHAT?! WHAT?! NO!!" at my televised media display screen before with quite the fervor as I just did, and that includes the response to the concrete slab-fucker scene from a few seasons ago.

There's only one way this little premise could work and if what we see next week is not that way, I fear next week I will be hollering "RUSSELL T. DAVIES YOU ARE DEAD TO ME, DO YOU HEAR ME? OOPS NO, YOU CAN'T, BECAUSE YOU ARE DEAD TO ME."

Sigh.

Somebody on the SA forums created an image of a Doctor Who title card with the caption "Something Hugely Retarded" by Russel T. Davies. (Should have been the real title for last season's finale.)

My money is on the Doctor visiting Earth in 1968, meeting the failed pilot team of Gary Seven and Teri Garr, and hooking up with the latter. Makes as much sense as anything else.

I hadn't even thought of the fact that this daughter might be the product of a booty call yet to be seen this season.

OH DON'T YOU DO IT.

Also, I grabbed the SA image: http://www.spatch.net/rtdavies-title.jpg

Well, Rose does come back for the "Turn Left" episode that will be airing in a few weeks...

Hell, Gary Seven basically was an American version of the Doctor. Never thought of him that way before.
