waters of mars!  
I almost DIED trying to get out to goldy_dollar's, just as a matter of interest.

Ahem.
I will probably do some kind of long-winded bantering quasi-intellectual meta on why I think it is ballsy and honest and awesome for RTD to show Ten completely cracking.

But that will have to come tomorrow or something when I have more time, so get ready for CAPSLOCKY REACTION POST OF INTERNET-YELLING.

Back when I watched Torchwood: Children of Earth with Frances, I remember our reactions being basically like this:

goldy_dollar: Wow, that was really dark and depressing.
Me: That was awesome.

Basically the reaction to Waters of Mars was like:
goldy_dollar: Wow, that was really dark and depressing.
Me: THAT WAS AWESOME

Adelaide was awesome, the story structure was awesome, sonic-segwaying on Wall-E was hilarious, Pompeii shoutout was awesome, angsty speeches of angst were awesome, Ten totally losing his shit and going all I AM TIME LORD VICTORIOUS THIS IS SPARTAAAAAAA was awesome, and unexpected Ood was unexpected.

And then on the bus ride home, lacunaz texted me and we had this conversation:
lacunaz: I just watched dw. Ten is head douche of doucheville in the county of great douche.
Me: OMFG I LOVE IT. HE SO CRAZY.
lacunaz: WHAT WOULD DONNA SAY, DOCTOR. THIS IS WHY YOU NEED ADULT SUPERVISION.
Me: YOU KNOW YOU NEED A THERAPIST WHEN YOU START HALLUCINATING OOD.


As for the trailer, there wasn't much I think we hadn't already seen in the shakey cam-version of the ComiCon one. BUT AHHH. DO WANT. DONNA. COME BACK TO ME MY LOVE. AND SKELETON MASTER LOL.

In conclusion:



WELL PLAYED, RTD. I EAGERLY AWAIT MORE EMOTIONAL BATTERING AT CHRISTMASTIME.
