5.0 out of 5 stars great episode, can't beat it for free on prime September 29, 2011
By L. Kolodny
Action scenes, a great score, Brit-silliness, some hotties, English accents, a story with morals, and David Tennant. What's not to love?

5.0 out of 5 stars Sara Jane at Her Best October 28, 2011
By Dennis P. Finegan
After too many years, the Doctor is reunited with his companion, Sara Jane Smith. And we can't leave out K-9, the infamous dog-robot. I've been a fan of the Doc's from the beginning and the current one is excellent. People say so and so was the best Doctor. Not true. They are all brilliant in their own way. Over time (ha ha) the special effects have improved greatly though. Remember the original Daleks? With the plungers? Well, things look a bit different as we get older and so do the Doctor's challenges. So suspend your disbelief - it is bigger on the inside - and take the plunge for free on Amazon Prime and watch the Doctor reunite with Sara Jane. I've seen this episode about 5 times already, but when the pizza comes out of the oven, I'm taking the plunge for the 6th and not the last, time.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Doctor and Sara Jane together again! July 8, 2011
By Joseph A. Nickence
Amazon Verified Purchase
When I read of Liz Sladen's passing, I had to look for any recent episodes after "The Five Doctors". I wasn't disappointed! This is a great story, and well worth watching. The acting is excellent, and performances are genuine!
