strange_complexI am:
Happy, because the Woman in White could still be Romana. It would have distracted from the plot to try to go into it in detail, but 'I was lost long ago'? That's Rusty giving us enough to add '... in E-space' if we want to.
Sad, because really I don't think the Time Lords ever can come back properly after that. It was tenuous enough to give them one route out of their Time Lock; setting up another would feel very, very strained now. I wanted them to come back and stay back, and now I don't think I am ever going to get that.
Happy, because even though it was a bit self-indulgent there at the end, the Russell T. Davies era was frickin' awesome, and I loved seeing all those people get their happy endings, and spotting all the alien races in the bar where Jack was drinking. It was definitely better than having them all come back and be shoe-horned into the main plot, anyway.
Sad, because Donna never did get to remember how awesome she had been, after all.
Happy, because if the Tenth Doctor's era had to come to an end, then that ending was so perfect for him. I loved the small ordinariness of it after everything he has done, and I loved the look on his face when he realised, and his rage about it, but the certainty that he would do it anyway because that fits perfectly with everything he had ever done.
Sad, because there isn't any more of it.
Happy, because it is time for new things, and I can see Matt Smith is going to be great, too. GERONIMOOOOOO!!!!
In short, conflicted. Which I think was the point of that.
