For the second week running, there was no mention whatsoever of Melody and no evidence that either of her parents were giving her a second thought. I know some viewers don't find that a problem
I do! I'm finding it such a problem that it's starting to spoil my enjoyment of the series. The fact that baby Melody grows into River Song doesn't make what happened to her OK, but the fact that Rory and Amy seem to think it does just boggles my mind.
in last week's episode, we had a storyline concerning a young child who was terrified of being abandoned,
Yes, I just don't get it. If the Doctor hares across the galaxy to save this child why didn't he do it for Melody. I'm sure there's some deeply clever timey wimey reason but at the moment it's eluding me.
