We bid a final adieu to the beloved Ponds on the mid-season finale of Doctor Who, but with such a buildup to their departure, is the episode a fitting goodbye?

Let’s bitch it out…

Well folks, if you can believe it, we’ve only got one episode left until Doctor Who takes a break before the Christmas special. So how did the penultimate episode do before the Ponds say sayonara for good?

Let’s take a closer look after the jump.

Doctor Who review – 7×03: ‘A Town Called Mercy’

This week on Doctor Who, we continued to get weaned off regular companions Amy (Karen Gillan) and Rory (Arthur Darvill) in another stand-alone adventure. This time we were hanging out somewhere in the Wild West. The Doctor’s (Matt Smith) Stetson wasn’t the only thing that returns, however; we also see a return of the ramifications of his traveling alone for too long.

Watch With Us: Fall 2012 Edition

We’ve played in the sun. We’ve taken vacations. We took in some conferences, some film festivals and we’ve watched some marvelous summer TV.

But let’s get serious because the fall is upon us. The glorious, beautiful fall television season. It’s a time when seemingly half a dozen shows debut each day, and shiny newbies compete with old favourites for the valuable real estate we affectionately refer to as your eyeball time and your DVR/TIVO space.

So tag along with us as we guide you through what we’re going to watch this fall…

Doctor Who review – 7×02: ‘Dinosaurs on a Spaceship’

With a title like ‘Dinosaurs on a Spaceship’, it’s impossible not to have fun during the second episode of the current Doctor Who season. With last week’s season opener and this week’s offering, it looks like the series is opting for a return to standalone adventure episodes. Even so, we do get small glimpses into what to expect for the rest of the season.

Let’s take a closer look after the jump.

Time traveling fans rejoice: our favourite Time Lord is back for a brand new season of adventures! The seventh season premiere of Doctor Who marked the return of the perilous Daleks (who were absent all of last season), while also introducing – and subsequently faking us out – to The Doctor’s (Matt Smith) future companion.

Ending months of speculation, the BBC has announced that the seventh series of Doctor Who will premiere Saturday, Sept 1 in the UK and a week later, Saturday, Sept 8 in the US (on BBC America) at 9 EST. (Update: it appears new episodes will air the same day in the UK and US in an effort to curb US illegal downloads)

Flashback recap – Doctor Who 4×08-4×09: ‘Silence In The Library’ and ‘Forest Of The Dead’

The Doctor Who Project: At the behest of TVAngie (and many, many of my students), I’ve been catching up on the 2005 revision of Doctor Who. I’ll be posting my thoughts on some of the big episodes as I make my way up through the series. Thus far I’ve tackled ‘Blink’ – a series high point – and 4×03 ‘Planet Of The Ood’ – a weaker episode that seems reflective of the quality of the first half of the fourth season. With the arrival of River Song (Alex Kingston), however, things seem back on the path to recovery.

The Doctor Who Project: At the behest of TVAngie (and many, many of my students), I’ve been catching up on the 2005 revision of Doctor Who. I’ll be posting my thoughts on some of the big episodes as I make my way up through the series. Last week I tackled ‘Blink’ – which was a series high point – so it’s a little ironic that I’m following that up with one of the weaker episodes in recent seasons: 4×03’s ‘Planet Of The Ood’. Or as I’ve subtitled it: “Why I never want to see the Ood again”.

I’ll be posting my thoughts on some of the big episodes as I make my way up through the series. For now I’m up to season four, but before I move on, I thought I’d tackle ‘Blink’, the Doctor’s tenth episode of season three.
