A bit of a mess, but in the end watchable. The atmosphere was very good though as already mentioned; you could almost feel how hot things were getting as time wore down for them through the screen.Morellahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08852528242739450099noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-58316563602936887082015-10-03T09:00:16.824-04:002015-10-03T09:00:16.824-04:00One thing I like about this episode is how mad the...One thing I like about this episode is how mad the Doctor was with humans, and specifically humans who just take resources from a sun without scanning for life first. The Doctor is just too pro-human for me sometimes!

Nice way to watch when on DVD.<br /><br />THe "BURN WITH ME" did not have the intellectual capacity to be used as a theme. There was no hidden meaning or turn of phrase with it. <br /><br />I to also thought of the lifeline idea with the phone call...Michael Colvinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14652603242977963534noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13727952.post-81145142732166222992009-08-06T19:47:34.261-04:002009-08-06T19:47:34.261-04:00I like this episode a lot.

I know it will never be deemed a classic or anything but it worked for me, especially after the previous three.<br /><br />Anyone else thrilled that Martha got a love interest in this episode? Riley would've been a decent companion as well.<br /><br />Love the continuing push of the Saxon mystery.

The whole ‘Burn With Me!’ plot felt like a tacked on excuse to slip a monster into a show that didn’t need one and to give the kiddies another toy they could nag their parents into buying. Russell T. Davis has certainly given into the merchandising side of the force.Mark Greighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12984193299389764649noreply@blogger.com
