Time’s New Romans (Rebooting "The Pandorica Opens” and “The Big Bang")
Description
It’s the end of the universe as Moffat knows it, and somehow we feel fine. The Pandorica Opens and The Big Bang two-parter throws every monster in the closet at Stonehenge, locks the Doctor in the most mythic box since the TARDIS, shoots Amy, explodes reality, gives Rory 2,000 years of plastic husband duty, and then fixes everything with a wedding phrase. Does it all make sense? Frequently! Does it cheat? Occasionally! Does it still make Team PTO cry happy tears? Like Karen Gillan reading the deepest-blue terms and conditions. Join us as we salute Matt Smith yelling at spaceships, interrogate Moffat’s monster fan service, ponder whether Sutekh got rebooted with the TARDIS, and ask whether this fairy-tale finale is really as good as we remember.
