Sesska's Favorite TV Moment of the Week (11/19-11/25) (Patreon)
Content
I’ve always loved River’s story and I do hope we get to see her again. Doctor Who has been able to do something so marvelous with her character that is so unique and wonderful. And without even knowing it, we’re face to face with her last moments with The Doctor (presumably). I was so distracted by everything else going on that I wasn’t ready to say goodbye to River even though she may end up returning to the show. This is all so very confusing.
Like I said, it’s possible this isn’t the very end…..but if it is, I love her goodbye being with Matt. Not just because I love Matt and I think his acting is impeccable, but because I think they have such wonderful chemistry together. When these two are together, I feel a beautiful connection.
Now, I don’t know if I’ll even see River again or if I do, what her chemistry would be with the next Doctor(s). What I do know is that this moment made me feel so much love for these two. To see The Doctor transform from a man who was just very confused by River and not having much of a connection at all to then being so broken up about saying goodbye to her just really made me feel so much hurt for both of them….even if they did try to end things on relatively lighter note.
I hope to see more of River. I really do. I have a feeling I might be losing 11 soon and I have already lost Amy & Rory. The idea the last piece of the foursome that really made me fall in love with Doctor Who could still pop up at any given time makes me really happy. So expect screams and squeals if that happens. But until then I know, I know……Spoilers.
