    Yeah, I stopped watching about 2/3 into last season. I might try again eventually, but it sounds like the show is kind of stuck in the gutter.

    Me at the end of episode 1: I hope they dont use that "The companion was teleported instead of disintegrated" twist that theyve used twice before again
    3 minutes into episode 2:

    I think I'd be fine with Mistresses if she didn't keep putting on the baby voice.

    I really like Capaldi and Gomez, they deserve better writing at times.

    I have not had the chance to watch the first two episodes yet. I'll catch up eventually.

    Didn't even realize the new season has started, that how out of touch I am. I don't see much Maisie talk, so I'm going to assume she hasn't appeared yet. She's literally the only reason I care to tune in this season.

    I also like this turn. It really brings their relationship back to what it was like in the Delgado years. The John Simms 'oooh look at me, I'm evil because of drums' version of the Master really didn't do it for me.

    Actually, that doesn't really seem to be true. See this here graph (which seems to be accurate, at least as far as I can tell).

    The 'Doctor Who is becoming unpopular' thing really seems to be a bit of an Internet mirage.

    Also, I thought that the second episode in this set was brilliant.

    Only going by what the BBC themselves have reported!

    Also Formalhaut, I thought Robin Hood was one of Capaldi's best, that Matt Smith is a boss and that Tennant's specials (That desert planet aside) were his best episodes - Waters of Mars was ridiculously good. Also I'm not really in uproar about it, just, meh.

    I've managed to keep up with the season so far. I like the characters, but I'm not fully engrossed with the stories or the dynamics between the characters so far. I'm also not sure if Moffat is a genius or has just completely jumped the shark this season. *shrugs*

    It has been confirmed that River is coming back for the Christmas special though, so for those of us who do like her, there's that to look forward to.

    Sounds like ol' Moffat is overstaying his welcome. I saw people ready for him to leave back in Series 7.

    I got this thread title from the end shot. Is that what we were meant to take from it? I don't know, but I'm rolling with it.

    Tennant's specials: I believe the original plan was to take a year off but the BBC (who can ill-afford to lose Doctor Who revenue) basically begged Russell T Davies to at least do a few one-off episodes to fill the gap.

    As for Moffat, a fresh showrunner probably is needed by now but he's in charge of two massive successes for the BBC, so nobody will be pushing him out of the door any time soon.

    And I laughed at the ZZ Top line in last night's episode.

    I thought the most recent episode was good, apart from the tacked on alien-invasion-of-the-week which pops up at the last second.

    Maisie Williams did a cracking job, I thought, and played off Capaldi very well. I wouldn't object to a recurrence or two of her character.

    Good thing since that selfie at the end strongly implies she'll be back. I wonder what will happen given she mentioned remembering Clara because she makes note of people's weaknesses, and she is always forgetting things about her life. Maybe she'll forget her new mission and see Clara as having what she wanted.
