Even the Mansquito creature designs were better than that.

I mean, lets go back over the original daleks shall we? With their plungers?

Yep. That's just sooooooooooooo alien looking, that is!

Admittedly, if the alternative is seeing some alien fly-man's 13" long wedding tackle flapping around in the Dubai breeze, I'll take the jumpsuit. :)

I hate to say it, but this will be the second episode in a row where the new monsters have been... kind of lame.
You'd expect flappy cloth "robot monster" suits and tan coveralls from a Peter Davison episode, but not 2009. If you can't afford to give your monster a proper torso, then maybe you need to rethink your design a little.

I was hoping for something different. An alien. An older man. An older woman. Not Rose 2.0.

Here's to hoping maybe they pull an old who and pick up some other companions along the way? It would be nice to have more than just 1 doc and 1 companion. Maybe two or three companions? That could be a lot of fun. *crosses fingers*

I also think they should bring back the Krotons, since they're one of the few classic aliens who would look better realized almost entirely in CGI. (Plus, since they're crystalline and grown from vats, who can say that different Krotons can't have different shapes for different functions?)

Unfortunately, we can already tell from the location filming that these creatures are going to be mostly CGI, which automatically equals naff and boring. (unless of course, they kidnap the Doctor as part of a last ditch attempt to save their planet from the dreaded rolled up newspaper robots of Tau Ceti 8, which would be awesome)

Man, the universe is a strange and fucked up place, but I bet the Doctor has never come face to face with a Sesame Street monster before.

Well, other than passing away earlier this month, I mean. :(

What about the Ice Warriors? Or the Autons?
And I can only assume they mean "creatures" more than "villains" cause other wise The Master is a ridiculous omission.

What other bit of lame internet grumpiness you got?

They try to hard to make something "The New Daleks" but they forget that the daleks' popularity was unexpected - they were only supposed to appear in one story, their popularity emerged from the bottom upwards, not because of execs consciously trying to push them as a big thing.
