You can always count on Moffat to mess up our feels! Why must he do this to us!!!
On another note, I'm loving Oswin! I wonder how she will turn out to be the companion. Hope he doesn't meet past Oswin. We have enough River moments already.
Let us discuss fellow Whovians!

These were my thoughts exactly. As soon as I saw the first scene with Rory and Amy I just walked away and it took me a good 15 minutes to return to watch it. Oswin really hit it off with me. I haven't ever been too strong of an Amy/Rory as companions fan so I am quite excited for them to step down and for Oswin to take over. I can't stop wondering how she is going to reappear in the Christmas special as well! It was a great episode as Moffat's usually are. I have also seen that Jenny the Doctor's daughter might come back, I truly can't wait for that, she was a favorite of mine.

Oh my goodness I just watched it and I really hope that it's the same character even though I know it won't be because they have different names but I still hope they have the same personality because that was fantastic. And as for Rory and Amy that was the cutest thing, but I'm kinda confused as to what they were fighting about. I know it was something about having kids but does anyone know why?

Amy had lost the ability to reproduce due to the events in Demon's Run. Knowing Rory wanting children, she gave up on him because of that which I find to be weak and cartoon-ish. I blame Moffat for being a bit too sexist. Anddd did I just hear Jenny returning?! Too bad Tennant isn't. I don't see good chemistry between Eleventh and Jenny but hey the Doctor's the Doctor.
Human Corpse Daaaaleks. Oh my God.

I'm not sure but I was looking through a list of guest-characters in the new season and I saw Jenny's name. It all said TBD so it might easily change, but I want her back. I agree, I'm not sure how Smith will be with Jenny. Hopefully she does come on for at least 1 episode though!

I really wish that Rose and the Meta Crisis would come back at some point. That would be fantastic. And I hope they bring Jack back. I heard they might.

I have to admit, while AotD was good while I was watching it, afterwards I kind of had to punch a pillow because of all the retconning and the mixing things up and the predictable plot twist and the lack of any explanation for anything ever.
It's classic Moffat, though. When he doesn't have someone else to tell him off, his writing is about as consistent and suspensful as a five-year-old's.
The one thing I give him credit for was the Amy/Rory split thing, since a lot of couples do genuinely experience problems like that, especially in a relationship like Rormy's, where there's basically zero communication between the partners over their feelings. I think it was resolved too quickly, though. Couples experiencing issues like that don't just kiss and make up, they go through months, sometimes years of counselling.
Also, did anyone else notice that Oswin's chair was identical to the chair that was in the ship Jenny stole that one time? I hope that's just a coincidence, because if the Doctor's daughter got turned into a Dalek and then blown up I am going to punch Moffat in the face.
