Poor episode, very poor. Even for a filler it was bad. Obviously they blew the budget on going to Venice for research and Croatia for filming, because the CGI was one of the worst yet.
Next week's looks interesting, but I'm concerned about fitting something as complex as that into the 45 minute timeslot. DW could really benefit from getting a full hour.
I was a little disappointed overall.
After all that it was a little pollen in the air filter. I was hoping for something a little more substantial. Perhaps an old enemy the doctor has faced. Or maybe we never find out who it was. We just keep having the doctor saying "I know who you are" and then never have it revealed to us. Open the door for him to return again.

I get that it was himself. and that's ok. Just not what I was expecting. and all that caused by a little bit of pollen.
felt like a bit of a cop-out to be honest.

What confused you? The Dream Lord was the manifestation of all the 'bad' and negativity within The Doctor.
I think that episode could really have benefited from having an hour-long slot. It felt a bit, not rushed, but not explained?
I got that it was him, just not how, or why. And when he said 'there's only one person who hates me more than you'. Idk. And yeah, these episodes are seeming kind of rushed, and not always explained fully which I hate haha

I liked it. Just not the end with Rory and Amy :P
I tried to be perfect but nothing was worth it
I don't believe it makes me real
I liked it but it just kind of lost itself at the end, it was kinda like building everything up for a "oh it was me, now lets not mention it ever again". But as much as im trying to like the series i just cant, i dont like amy and as been said it seems to revolve around her so much. Rory is like another mickey (when he first began). Matt smiths ok but i dont think theres been one excellent soty yet where hes proved himself, it seems to be awfully confusing with the story jumping about so much.
But i really dont know if and when its going to start to get better.

I would watch it just for Matt Smith!!! He's really good and I love his voice and mannerisms as the Doctor. I also love Karen Gillan(?) as Amy, she is great but pregnant wasn't a good look on her!!! I must admit I was getting a little confused and I agree it could have benefitted from an hour time slot so it didn't seem like it was on fast forward!!!!
I think I could ge to like Matt. He seems to be coming into his own.

True. He's had a few moments over the last few stories, but he does need a big even to solidify himself.
Hopefully he'll get that on the finale.
My brother seems to think that happened with his adventure in venice. but i'm not so sure.
