The Satan Pit:
The only really interesting thing about this episode is that the Doctor actually finds himself with a bit of a moral dilemma when he faces the demon in the pit. Unfortunately, the resolution's cheesy. Also, there's no closure or explanation as to what the devil-creature is. The Doctor literally just shrugs and leaves. C
Love & Monsters and Fear Her:
Honestly, I tried watching both of these episodes, but found that I couldn't. David Tennant is what makes this series at all interesting, so an episode he's barely in isn't going to rank very high with me. "Fear Her" is just a typical "modern" Doctor Who story, one with the Doctor lighting the Olympic Torch. What's with that? D both.
Army of Ghosts and Doomsday:
These two episodes give me hope for season three. A tense and competient story directed by Gaeme Harper, the Doctor starts off investigating the appearance of ghost-like creatures. This leads him to Torchwood, and the meat of the story. Cybermen. Daleks. Parallel Earths. While last season's big wolf fell on its face, this really pays off, and I hope that Tennant's second season as the Doctor is better. B
Season Overall: C+
