Eh, not much to say about "Curse of the Black Spot". It wasn't a very complex story, especially compared to the season opener. The twist where the "siren" is actually a healer is something I saw coming about 5 miles away. The story also appeared to be a bit "sanitized" (won't someone please think of the children!). The pirates didn't appear to be particularly potent or believable (Hugh Bonneville is way too "modern" of a dad for pirate times). Speaking of unbelievable, perhaps it's best to not even start to address the "sail off into the sunset" ending.
Also, I don't get the resuccitation scene. Rory chooses Amy to administer CPR to him because she won't give up, and he only regains life after she...gives up? And the Doctor in his wondrous TARDIS can offer no assistance better than heartfelt encouragement?
Spleesh, sometimes the new Dr. Who can get just a bit too emotional/magical for my tastes...
