I think this has been a pretty good series by and large. Top 5 would be:

Cold War
The Crimson Horror
Asylum Of The Daleks
The Name Of The Doctor
Hide

Would love to have included Nightmare In Silver ( probabaly sixth place ) but it was a real missed opportunity.

Worst - The Rings Of Akhaten - arguably the worst Matt Smith tale to date.

For me, Mark Gatiss has written the best two stories in this series. I feel he really 'gets' Dr Who ( even his novel Last Of The Gaderene is a pitch perfect early Pertwee adventure ). When Moffat steps down, I'd love him to be the new producer.

This earlier quote from me might be correct.

Matt Smith is an amazing doctor to bad he's got Moffat as a showrunner because the 50th anniversary is being ruined by Moffats huge ego and poor Smith is caught in the middle.

(statement will only be retracted if I see original doctors and companions in the 50th anniversary episode..if not Moffat can gladly leave)

Has he still dropped the ball C7?

Meh.

To save my birthday from being ruined by this 36th anniversary episode, I will be watching Terror of the Zygons instead.

No mention of 8th doc as far as I could tell, unless I blinked. This does not bode well.

I've written a scene that wasn't shown in Dragonfire but was hinted at in The Name of the Doctor.


Clara - Doctor! What the hell are you doing?

The Doctor (Whilst frantically clutching at his umbrella part way down an ice chasm) - Its a long story. Who are you anyway? I feel we've met before. It all started in the space port bar with Glitz.. Ace and Mel had wandered off. Glitz introduced me to a decent chap who he said was of great intelligence. Anyway, long story short. After a few jars of gin, lighter fluid and antifreeze. he produced something known as a Camberwell Carrot and the next thing i know i'm here.

Clara - Are you saying you're high Doctor?

The Doctor - I'm not sure, but after my first three stories the viewers think somebody is.

Clara - Oh come on Doctor - You've got work to do.

Well unless you have a time machine or think I do to see something that isn't available to watch for 6 months then I guess kinda to early to tell..

Oh wait was that suppose to be humor

What is it with you?

After the comment of yours i quoted,yesterday you said The Name of the Doctor was excellent. So i was just seeing if your opinion regarding Moffat may have changed especially as the Doctors were featured frequently.

I wasn't expecting a sarcastic response from you. I don't think i'm going to bother responding to your posts in future. Its not worth the hassle.

Didn't mean that as sarcastic as it came out. I apologize if it seemed harsher than meant.

I enjoyed series 7 but I still think Moffat may be ready to leave it.

Sorry if I came off my prick-ish than intended, it's been an extremely rough week.
