Okay, so most of this two-parter was pretty underwhelming (standout scenes were when Amy was sucked down into the earth and the last four minutes of the finale ep) marked by the Doctor being ridiculously optimistic about humanity, but then Rory got erased from existence and it looks like the TARDIS gets destroyed.

I don't even know what to think.

I don't like that this is how they wrote Rory off from a Doctor/Amy stand point, especially considering this episode had me thinking that it's not just Amy who isn't committed to getting married, even as Rory's erasure is cool from a more cold-blooded narrative standpoint.

The threat to the TARDIS and, by implication, the Doctor is just fucking straight up awesome.

ETA:
And if this had made it in

it would have been even clearer that NEITHER Rory nor Amy should be getting married. Honestly, the only reason I'm sorry Rory doesn't exist is that now that dynamic can't be explored.

Oh, he's definitely coming back, even if only in Amy's memory. There is too much potential there for them not to use him.
