This is a site for discussing roleplaying games. Have fun doing so, but there is one major rule: do not discuss political issues that aren't directly and uniquely related to the subject of the thread and about gaming. While this site is dedicated to free speech, the following will not be tolerated: devolving a thread into unrelated political discussion, sockpuppeting (using multiple and/or bogus accounts), disrupting topics without contributing to them, and posting images that could get someone fired in the workplace (an external link is OK, but clearly mark it as Not Safe For Work, or NSFW). If you receive a warning, please take it seriously and either move on to another topic or steer the discussion back to its original RPG-related theme.

Quote from: jadrax;611518Really enjoyed the Christmas special, especially seeing the links into older continuity.

Quite liked it as well. It was slow at first but well worth it in the end.

Even though the plot was a bit mary poppins, it was the best Matt Smith (if we must have him as the doctor) episode. Moffat's dialogue is atrocious at times, but i would much rather have Strax than this ridiculous Oswin girl.
"Ghost Whistler" is rated PG-13 (Parents strongly cautioned). Parental death, alien battles and annihilated worlds.

I thought Oswin was the best part. Seems like a promising companion.

Depends how it resolves, or indeed if.

She isn't as annoying as the Ponds, which is a definite plus, but she's still another spunky young girl character. Not really very original.

Sontaran butler trumps that any day of the week.

I enjoyed the sontaran butler as a comedic foil but "militant goofball" is hardly more original than "spunky girl". Liked them both, thought Oswin stole the show. And think the premise of her character is quite interesting.

I liked Snowmen, though it wasn't perfect. The Sontaran was great. So was the return of the lizardwoman detective. I like Oswin. She's much better than Rory and Amy (who really should have been gone a season ago. They overstayed their welcome).

It's pretty obvious that the dna of new who contains spunky girl as a sidekick. The first mal companion they added ended up fucked over and got no sympathy. The next was openly gay/bi while Rory was a doormat.

Any theories on who Oswin really is?
