this times infinity, this latest series has been a complete cock up *thats the british term for F**** up right?*. I cant stand Moffat, he has screwed up the story of the doctor so much its not even funny, pretty much the quoted person has it right. I cant stand Amy or Rory, Riversong could have been a interesting character, but Moffat decided to use her as a walking talking Mc'Guffin for the doctor. nothing interested me this series it was all, Every disposable character: "I love the doctor" Amy: "I love the doctor more" River: "I love the Doctor the most because he marries me.". It is so Freudian, I get the feeling that if Moffat could he would make sweet sweet love to the doctor. It is just so damn annoying how almost EVERY character in the show loves him, and how every episode has that in it, well Moffat written ones at least. and the finale was just the cherry on the crap Sunday Moffat has served to us this series, just such a dang cop out its not even funny. the only good thing to happen this series is the silence creatures *the memory proof ones*, they were interesting, and now we can never explore them again because of Moffat, and that episodes *number 2: day of the moon* ending was horrid, made no sense to me, so I get the creatures are memory proof, but what about the dead bodies, or how about when people shoot them, how would the smoking gun that was just shot be explained, or random panicked gun shots every where, also, are there just millions of silence bodies lying every where in the world dead? this whole season has just been... Disheartening, I no longer like doctor who, I really don't, I hate it now, and I feel sad about it. Truly sad, Moffat has broken... no... killed my spirit and love for this show. I don't think I can EVER watch it again. so I am going to go bust out my 20 year old scotch that I have been saving for 4 years *since I turned 21 it was a present* and go sit out side and drink it all. I will try to remember the good stuff of the doctor, but I believe Moffat has tarnished it forever and even has succeed in tarnishing the very loving memory's of the show, that I use to cherish, but no longer can. so to quote another great series that was utterly destroyed, *by a movie*Riesel87 said:What an awful end to a truely awful series of Dr Who. Only the james cordon episode was really good, spoiled by Amy Pond's cameo. This series has been full of continuity errors, more retcons than you can count and the truely tiresom plot of Amy pond and river song. River song has been the most over used and underwhelming character to hit dr who. Poorly devised retcons to turn her into a central character, which just wouldnt end.
Theres no subtlety to the writing, it was too obvious she was the Dr's wife from her first encounter, but they tried to make out that was not the case. It takes thme 3 series to tell you, actually yeh you were correct. Thats all without admitting shes a pretty wooden actress that has zero chemistry with the dr, past or present. Amy pond is the worst thing to happen to TV. The sooner she is off our screens the better. Her entire character makes no sense, we are ment to accept she is some sort of martial arts science genius with timelord capabilites aparently. She can build you a sonic screw driver from scraps simply because she has seen one. Or she go be a swashbuckling sword fighting pirate when she wants, all the while without taking a moment to pause and be suprised by anything along the way. She has no wonder about anything the Dr shows her, an awful personality and just an assault on the senses!
Matt Smith is a truely fantastic Dr, but he doesnt get the screen time. Its the Amy, Rorey and River show. The best Episodes of the 11th dr have been when smith is on his own and aloud to shine.
They need to stop making an overall theme so obvious. In the tennant days, the seemingly random episodes had a loose link in some way to the final episode, it was subtle and you thought oh that was clever how they all linked. Now its all about the build up to the finale, it is literally thrown in your face from minute 1 of episode 1.
P.S Dr Who writters, please stop doing the Dr is going to die story lines, we all know it is an empty threat as you cannot kill off the Dr from Dr Who, or you would have no show. Therefor where is the suspense and drama when we as an audience know he is never going to die. once in a while it's nice to see him cheat death with genius, but its so often he is in some sort of mortal danger. Try putting a dispensable character that we care about in danger, as at least we wont know if they will survive or not.
