After thinking about it for a bit I sort of feel that the Ponds get ditched rather ... easily. Good episode, certainly but a bit ... short?

I was extremely disappointed in Amy and Rory's exit.  In some ways, the episode was better than I'd given it credit for.  I watched an on-line review of it by MrTardis, and he made the point that it handles the emotional content of their departure very well, but the logic of the episode is very bad.  I suppose that he's largely right, but I had the same reaction as the P.I. at the end of the intro--"You gotta be kiddin' me".  The thing with the Statue of Liberty was stupid, stupid, stupid.  Had it only been used once, later when we were already invested in the emotional context of what was happening, it might not have been so bad, but when it was used so early, with a character we know or care nothing about, it made it just too easy for me to keep thinking throughout the episode, "this is stupid" and be so distracted by that thought that I never really connected with the emotions.

Barmymoo:
I also don't get why the Doctor could never see them again. OK, so it wouldn't be safe to land the TARDIS in New York again. Why not land it somewhere else and catch a train like a normal person?! A normal person with time travel ability, granted, but still...

Christopher Eccleston has said he won't do it and well we've lost the first three plus the actor, Richard Hurndall, who also played the first Doctor in the Five Doctors is dead.

Pity actually.
