About this episode
Just how dangerous is traveling with the Doctor? It’s a fair question after revisiting The Girl Who Waited, which looks surprisingly dark 13 years after it aired — especially now that many who watched it back then are now closer in age to older Amy Pond. Join us as we ponder: Did this “Doctor Lite” episode portray Matt Smith as excessively cowardly? Why couldn’t Amy and Amy pass the Bechdel test? And what’s up with all those flying syringes?
