I don't even have anything to say that isn't spoilery, so here you go.

Look everyone, it's Dance Party time!

I have that damn rhythm stuck in my head too, like everyone else who saw that episode. Nice job, Rusty.

I have general thoughts.

I wanted to know more about Utopia. Oh well. Goodbye, minor plot point.
Jack probably can't hang on to his nice vortex manipulator, since it would be a little too handy for Torchwood.
Yes, Lucy Saxon is evil!Rose with the hair of Madame de Pompadour. ::tips my virtual cap to Rusty again::
Martha's been gone for four days. As a med student, wouldn't they have fired her ass by now?
That nice little perception filter on the TARDIS key might have come in handy before now.
POOR TARDIS! OMG. She is so going to have to redecorate.
The Time Tot stuff was a little ... weird. I'm going to have to rewatch to see what I really think about it. It explains Reinette's "lonely little boy" comment fairly well.
Will reserve final judgment until next week. It's hard to judge a two-parter by the first half.

And finally ... when the Doctor was aged, was I the only one who yelled "Not the face, you bastard!" (I think not.)

(An addendum to that comment. We didn't see a lot of the Doctor in the teaser, so I suspect he'll be fine. But ... that machine better not have made his bum saggy, or I'll cry.)
