I thought Moffet's season last season was solid, but it felt a bit to much like a Russeell T Davies season. I was hoping he'd branch out more, and now....I;'m wishing not.
I feel like this season had wayyyyy too much stuff in it. How many episodes are just episodes. Where are my good single episodes like Dalek, Midnight and The Girl in the Fireplace? I feel a bit like Moffet said, let's deconstruct the Doctor, and then did so. Episodes about companions having faith in the Doctor like a deity or having convernations with the Tardis conscience in another body or showing how his attempts to shut down things with only his aura of power and reputation has come full circle andhe is thought of as a great warrior. Talking about how Doctor Who? is the oldest question in the universe? Mentioning that the word "Doctor" for healer came from him? There's just too much of that crap. I don;t think I'd ever say this, but Davis was simply a better show runner, so far, than Moffet. He needs someone to edit his ideas. As both producer and script editor, no one is censoring his ideas, and we get this shamble of a season as a result.
