Really? Because I quite liked it. Yeah, it has the usual thematic problems, ie: (Welsh accent) "Oh my God, people are terrible! But oh my God, so is everybody/thing else in the universe!" Nevertheless, I liked "Mary", who was equally terrifying in both her alienness and her humanity; I liked the focus on Tosh, who I take it isn't often focused on; I liked Jack's utter ruthlessness at the end, and how it made him very close kin to things like "Mary". And there was at least a tiny bit of hope left in the box, a concept they often seem to neglect.
