While perhaps a tad overrated in my opinion, my rewatch has made me more favorable to the episode. I don’t like the romantic aspect with Reinette but their dynamic is otherwise compelling, especially with the whole guardian angel thing. The story is fairly compelling, with all the jumps in time for Reinette and that ending really works. However, it comes at the expense of Rose and Mickey being more or less sidelined which is unfortunate. Also, I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention that the Clockwork Droids are one of the best monsters, I love their design.
