I really like Rory standing up for himself and calling out The Doctor. He is completely right too, The Doctor is very often careless and showboaty and his companions tend to follow his lead and act the same to impress him, that was very apparent with Rose for example.
I adored that moment because its so true. I agree, no matter how much we like the Doctor, he doesn't always seem to be aware of the impact he has on his companions.
Maybe David is the best but we have to consider that Matt was 26 when he took the role of the Doctor… he is incredibly talented. His acting is top tier. I remember watching this with my colleges in London when he took the job and we were sceptical… yet the very first episode confirmed… he IS the Doctor. No House of Dragon can change that.
I loathed Amy at this point. My attitude changed but it took some doing. Rory is awesomeness. And quite wise. I like a companion not in awe of the doctor.
I understand how you could feel that way. I wasn't a fan of her choices and how easily she pushed Rory aside. So while she isn't in my good books, I still think she is ok! Rory is brilliant and I love how he is just telling it like it is💖 Everyone is entitled to their own opinions but it shows how good this series is that people feel so passionately about the storylines!💖
Yay! Rory has arrived - this is now my favourite Tardis team. I've always enjoyed how Rory doesn't just join the Doctor fanclub and calls him out on how he makes people jump into danger to impress him in this episode. The Doctor can regenerate if he ends up in a sticky situation - human companions are more fragile. Personally, I think the Doctor was partly right about Amy's behaviour at the end of the last episode being because he was the one who was there - she spent most of Flesh & Stone seconds away from death, and who knows how that would mess with your head. Not that it makes it right. The other part is like you say - the Doctor left a huge impression on Amy when she was young, so that's definitely a factor, too. Poor Rory. You are right - tough conversations need to be had. I'm also really enjoying your theorising about the crack in time/space and why it keeps appearing everywhere they go.
I think Rory is brilliant, I really like that he calls the Doctor out too. I can see why this is your favourite tardis team! That is a very good point, she does also have feelings for the Doctor. I watched Amy’s choice (loved the episode)and I feel like that it wrapped that up. Yeah, I am a bit obsessed with the crack🤣
Though Matt's my favorite Doctor, this isn't one of my favorite episodes. I love that you mentioned David Tennant in Casanova. That was the first thing I'd ever seen him in. I had no idea who he was at the time. I watched the show for Peter O'Toole, one of my favorite actors.
Rory is a fantastic addition to the crew. He balances Amy and the Doctor's craziness quite well. I love this Tardis trio. I also love the next episode because it really solidifies the relationship dynamics between our main characters. Also you were right about The Doctor and Rosanna having great chemistry. The 11th Doctor seems to have a thing for older women 🤣
I agree with that! They probably are my favourite multiple companions😄The next episode is brilliant💖 Ooh I will remember that fact about the Doctor for future episodes!🤣
This was the episode that elevated Rory for me as not just another Mickey type boyfriend (though Mickey did get better eventually), to a solid dude. He calls the Doctor on his shit and the Doctor doesn't mistreat him either. I never liked that dynamic between both Eccleston and Tennant with Mickey in the first 2 season's.
I feel the same way, Rory actually stands up to the Doctor early on which sets a precedent. I feel like Mickey wasn’t respected by either Doctor and they didn’t treat him well at first. I do think his feeling for Rose and how Rose treated Mickey was partly responsible for that.
I think I'm now supposed to say "first" or something now :D Loved the reaction. Amy and Rory are an awesome couple and two of the best companions ever. :) You can look forward to some real treats ;)
Okay, another one to my Who reactor list! Now I have to decide to either start here with Matt or go all the way back... :) Here is the first of many THANKS for this!!!!
And Rory joins the TARDIS team! That's the first time you properly see a TARDIS team that isn't just the Doctor and a single companion isn't it? That was a very interesting dynamic for me who, at the point I was watching that episode, didn't expect or knew that the Doctor had multiples companions at once, because that's not like the Martha and Donna thing where the Doctor accidentely travelled with both of them, but he's letting a second companion in, to go along with them and that's interesting. Also, "Vampires" in Venice, who knew? I wonder why they left that part out of the history books. Great reaction as always, I don't really expect anything less coming from you based on what I've seen so far. I had a good time with this one and I can't wait for more. Sorry for being late, tho. Life sometimes get in the way of fun.
I love Rory! Well, there was Rose and Mickey but I don't think that was the same thing and I enjoy Amy and Rory's dynamic more. Oh, I could definitely see vampires living there! Thank you, I'm always happy to see your comments and I'm just glad you liked the reaction. I was late at replying and you are so right about life!😂
@@ReactandRamble I'll be honest, I completely forgot about Rose and Mickey when I said that, but, to be fair, they kinda left Mickey aside, because Rose seems to like the Doctor more, so I don't even know if I count Mickey as a proeminent companion lol. Definitely it would be fun to have some vampires in Venice... To everyone, with the exception of the people living there, haha. Oh, It's a great pleasure for me to have you even replying to my comments, you are incredibly sweet and absolutely lovely for doing that! Love you and the reactions you put so much effort into doing it. It brights my whole week.
So many opinions about who is/was the best Doctor. I gave up on Doctor Who after Capaldi left, but of those that came before I think David Tennant did it best, though I was disappointed Ecclestone only gave it a year before leaving. The first time the Weeping Angels appeared in 'Blink' (Tennant as the Doctor) was a superb episode. I never really liked Matt Smith but his silly nonsense was easy to ignore because he had such a good supporting cast. Amy, Rory and River, with Madame Vastra, Jenny and Strax appearing from time to time, all made Smith's Doctor episodes much more enjoyable and because of them there are many wonderful episodes. I have many of the old series from the 60s and 70s on DVD too, back when a story ran over several weeks rather than the stand alone episodes they do now, and each week we were left with a dramatic moment to make us tune in the following week. I only just found your channel so am watching out of order. Did you cover the first four series?
PS - I found the random video clips from other shows/films appearing regularly a bit distracting. You were making your point perfectly well without needing to add them.
@@bouncybaby5577 the things people find to complain about? Upset because someone uses more visuals in a visual medium. I guess when someone lacks control in their own life, they try to control others.
You may find that maybe the case of Doctor Who fans. We tend to extol the past worry about the future. Condemn the present.. I will just say this. Amy always speaks her mind and tells her truth. Amy was very specific in what she told the Doctor in her bedroom. If we choose to ignore Amy, maybe that falls on us? Remember to enjoy the ride, you only get to see this for the 1st time once.

I can’t believe how young Matt Smith was when he got the role, he is really brilliant!
I definitely enjoy him more as the Doctor🤣

Loathing her is the choice of the individual

Rory: And you kissed her back???
Doctor: No, I kissed her mouth
The ability to miss the most common human cues is my favorite trope
Yeah I love those sort of moments too🤣

I appreciate the first comment!😄
Thanks💖 I actually really enjoy them both, already looking forward to more of them on my screen!
Nicely edited, good fun with Amy and Rory
Thanks! Rory is my favourite at the moment😄
Okay, another one to my Who reactor list! Now I have to decide to either start here with Matt or go all the way back... :) Here is the first of many THANKS for this!!!!
Definitely check out David Tennant's time as the Doctor at some point! Thanks for coming on this Doctor Who journey with me😄
@@ReactandRamble Yep! I meant start *with you and David!!* What Doctor did you do your best reaction work with? That may be where I'll start!
Unfortunately I didn’t film myself reacting to David because I watched it when it first came out!
@@ReactandRamble Ah. I'll still have to search your archives....
I’m fairly new to reacting😄
Rory's great. I would like one, please. 😍
Are you watching the new series? I can't see the reactions anywhere...
I’ve reacted to one episode so far but not edited it yet. Still need to react to the rest. How is the new series?😊
@@ReactandRamble I've only just finished watching the 13th Doctor and loved it! (Moffat era for me though.)

@@bouncybaby5577 the things people find to complain about?
Upset because someone uses more visuals in a visual medium.
I guess when someone lacks control in their own life, they try to control others.
Also a person who doesn't mind dropping spoilers.
This fandom has some weird toxicity to it…..
You may find that maybe the case of Doctor Who fans.
We tend to
extol the past
worry about the future.
Condemn the present..
I will just say this.
Amy always speaks her mind and tells her truth.
Amy was very specific in what she told the Doctor in her bedroom.
If we choose to ignore Amy, maybe that falls on us?
Remember to enjoy the ride, you only get to see this for the 1st time once.
