\"\"<\/a>Another series of Doctor Who<\/em> is rushing to an end.\u00a0 There are only two episodes left, and unfortunately, they are not looking to be anything groundbreaking.\u00a0 We have gone 10 episodes without seeing or hearing a Dalek.\u00a0 This shouldn’t be of too big a surprise, since after the end of “Evolution of the Daleks” in series 3, there was only one left.\u00a0 The last member of the Cult of Skaro, Dalek Caan, escaped by doing an emergency temporal shift.\u00a0 That should have been the last we saw of the Daleks, but Russell T. Davies just can’t leave them out.\u00a0 I’m grateful to the man for bring back Doctor Who<\/em>, but I’m also glad he turning over his post as executive producer to Stephen Moffat.<\/p>\n

The end of “Turn Left” is the first clue to what is coming in the last two episodes.\u00a0 “Bad Wolf” are the words Rose scattered across the universe as a warning of eminent danger in the first series.\u00a0 That danger was from the Daleks.\u00a0 So to see the words everywhere at the end of episode 10 of course immediately brings them to mind.\u00a0 So, the big bads for the series four finally will be Daleks….again.\u00a0 But it’s not going to be just the Daleks, no.\u00a0 Dalek Caan couldn’t have rebuilt the Dalek army all by himself.\u00a0 He had to have help.\u00a0 And who in this universe would not only want to help the Daleks, but make them thrive and the rulers of the universe?\u00a0 No one but Davros, the creator of the Daleks.\u00a0 He’s the one the Daleks always go running back to when they have problems, so it makes sense that Dalek Caan would, especially being part of the Cult of Skaro.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>So for some reason, the resurrection of Davros has started the breakdown between the alternate universes, or perhaps Davros, like the Cybermen, IS from an alternate that Dalek Caan brought over some how, and that is causing the breakdown.\u00a0 And with Davros either creating or bringing a new army of Daleks, the stars are being put out.\u00a0 Only the Doctor and Donna can stop it.<\/p>\n

Sadly, it seems like this will be mark the end for Donna.\u00a0 Whether she dies or stops traveling with the Doctor, I don’t know, but with a title for the finale being “Journey’s End”, it doesn’t sound like she’ll be back.\u00a0 This is a shame, since Donna has been the best companion for the Doctor so far.\u00a0 At least the most proper.\u00a0 She’s not some teenager swooning over the Doctor.\u00a0 She disagrees and bickers with him, but also has a sensible head on her shoulders, and doesn’t do a lot of screaming for help.\u00a0 River Song’s inquiries about if she was The Donna Noble, back from the “Silence in the Library” episode, also had an ominous ring to it.<\/p>\n

I really wish they would stop with the musical companions, and keep on for more than one season.\u00a0 And while we’re on this, how about more than one that *isn’t* female?\u00a0 Mutiple TARDIS crews used to be the norm, and really most of the few episodes we’ve had with more than one companion have been the better ones.\u00a0 Come on guys, get a clue!<\/p>\n

I’m done ranting on that for now.\u00a0 We’ll see tomorrow night if any of my predictions are correct.\u00a0 I’ll keep you posted.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
