This particular Teselecta was being controlled by the Doctor himself, therefore it behaved more naturally than someone controlling him who didn't know him intimately.

Well, I definitely didn't think she was in there weighing herself. First off, I got the impression she was getting naked to take a full look since she clearly seemed to enjoy turning into a curvaceous, frizzy-haired middle-aged woman. As a woman, I enjoyed the fact that she enjoyed her new body so much. I don't look at Alex Kingston and see the status quo body image the world is trying to force down our throats.
Secondly, after the realization that she had the poison lipstick on, it became obvious that she merely was throwing out an excuse to get prepared to kill the Doctor.
Now, that being said, OF COURSE Moffat could have used some other sentence besides I'm going to weigh myself...although, anything having to do with a mirror would be out since she was standing next to one already....whatevs, history and all that. Think a little harder man!

I enjoyed the episode greatly and unabashedly. I don't think we are going to the special hell for our enjoyment despite the problematic elements.
I will say that there is room for discussion over stereotypes and whether they have a valid place in fiction at all (I would argue they do to a point).

Who has gone back to watch River's encounter with Rory in this episode? How lovely is the acting in that scene?! Watch it again, knowing that she knows this is her father. She immediately starts gushing to him just like a little girl trying to impress her dad. It was soo sweet.

Seriously, though. That gif wins all the things.

Good, we can sit in the corner rocking ourselves to stem the tide of tears. Maybe when they see how sorry we are, they will give us all the shows. At once. In a great big box set. With popcorn. Oh, and a visit from the Moff to enjoy it all with us.

I suppose I won't cry. I wish they could just go year round..of course, then it would probably be stale or something,

Wait...why are they breaking it up for the summer? Does this always happen? Why must I wait to see the end of the season? What did I do wrong?!

Toph = GREATEST CHARACTER EVER.
That's all I have to say. Back to my regularly scheduled reading and keeping my mouth shut.
