Just watched The Impossible Astronaut twice back to back. The second time I was looking for clues.
This is the best thing that has been on TV in months. Yes Moffat likes putting the bad guys in space suites. Before it was skeletons this time not skeletons.....but maybe he is repeating the motif for a purpose. Yes it is a child's voice on the phone, and yes he does like disembodied voices, but somehow on a second viewing I find myself trusting Moffat is being very deliberate.
The show was clever, witty and loaded with meaning. Utah was stunning and casting real life father and son as Canton Deleware III young and old added depth.
I'm 46 my son is 20 and we have very different viewing habits and tastes but we about half way through we turned to each other and agreed "this is very good". If Part II is as good then this will go down as a classic.
