Guess I'll have to move to the UK for this, lol
- How have you found the season so far? I can't watch it so I haven't seen anything since the specials/christmas ep. I got the feeling from our first glimpse that I could really like this Doctor but I'm not entirely sure I'd be up for more Davis writing.
  
  The first episode was ok but very cheesy with a weird resolution. The second I've was way better. If you ignore the Beatles stunt doubles, it's an awesome episode. The third one is another great Moffat episode with quite a lot of series 5 callbacks.
  
  The first episode was awful, juvenile nonsense that reminded me of the worst RTD episodes of his first run.
  
  The second was great - they really went for it and it worked.
  
  The third was a lesser Moff episode but he maintains high enough quality that it was still good and a handy change of pace and tone that let the cast go to some darker places and show other facets of their characters.
  
  Ep 1 bad bad bad. Juvenile and felt out of place as a “first” ep with Ruby and the Doctor travelling together
  
  Ep 2 good but a bit campy for me particularly as a companion to ep 1 (might have liked it more later in the season)
  
  Ep 3 liked the concept and tone. Social commentary was a bit hack for me personally.
  
  Ep 4 loved it, best ep of this new run for me, including the specials
  
  Things happen where you don't know why they worked, there's a moffat episode with his one plot of characters in impossible odds and an ass pull ending, and the doctor is kind of not acting like the doctor.(he's crying/scared constantly and seems stumped all the time.)
  
  Not much better than what I've seen from the 13th doctor, tbh.
  
  I second this inquiry.
- Pretty much.
