I should probably preface this by mentioning that I've been making good use of the Elkridge Library's collection and catching up on all the Doctor Who I've missed. (Which means all of Season 3 and most of 4. And not completely in order.)
Having said that: I just finished watching "Blink" and was surprised and impressed. No, really impressed. Thought I was getting a filler episode with almost no David Tennant, but it was a neat, twisty, suspenseful episode. On top of all that, the Weeping Angels were genuinely creepy. No, really. I have very rarely been able to say that. And not just in a shock-value OMG-there's-suddenly-a-giant-wasp-trying-to-sting-Agatha-Christie sort of way, either.
Kind of interesting to note that in a series where you have tons of giant bug aliens, robots and monsters, the antagonists that really manage to creep me out are the ones who we never see move, who appear as frozen statues onscreen. That's not just because sometimes the aliens and monsters in the series can be just plain cheesy. The real chills always come from what you don't see.
Also, young DI Shipton? Cocky, but still hot.
Yep, two-years-late Doctor Who episode fangirling. That's all. Carry on.
(YES, MOM, I AM GOING TO BED NOW. ♥)
