I am. My supreme glee over seeing the Autons again and the fabulous chemistry between Billie and Chris glosses a lot, but in comparison to other stories of that season, and also the other two meet-the-new-companion stories, I feel it's fairly weak. I've always had big trouble that this is a show about a *Time Lord* so why did the first episode of New Who have no time travel in it at all? They introduced all the other concepts except the two hugest - travel to other times and travel to other places. They couldn't even wedge it in as a throwaway bit, a la Smith and Jones?
ETA: I know, the Doctor gets a single line about it, but that's not the same, IMO.
