I liked Matt Smiths portrayal of the Doctor. Younger looking reincarnation with all the knowledge. I think Series 6 just takes it for me.
I loved series 5, cos it was rather adorable (idk why I use that word, but I really want to in this context). But I think the story arc of Season was actually very Doctor Who-y. Season 7A was excellent, and the finale of S7A (The Angels Take Manhattan) is one of my favourite episodes so far. However, I must admit that S7B was quite a let down, except for a couple of good episodes. But still, god knows why, I always rewatch S7 the most.
I kinda like all of them equally, but I think I’ll have to go with S6 because that is a rather interesting season, other than the flesh and hitler episodes which were both, disturbing and boring.
No! I love The Rebel Flesh / The Almost People, for reasons I can elaborate on if you'd like. The moral dilemma of the episode was fascinating, the Eleventh Doctor's manipulative nature was put on display, and of course that ending...
Yes, I agree.
Series 5 was the best, but on rewatching Series 6 it wasn't as bad as I thought before. I'm calling S7 as the weakest though. Everything just felt dull and average.
I think it was because Amy and Rory died in episode 5. Then Clara was introduced (for the second and third time). I think series 7 was just a plot device for Clara, and ending Amy and Rory’s story really.
And Amy and Rory's story had already been neatly ended in The God Complex. S7A was pointless, and the killing off of Amy and Rory was badly explained and done for the sake of it. Clara could have easily been the companion for the whole of S7, there was no need to drag Amy and Rory back for the rubbish divorce plot, then back and forth for the rest of the season.
Yes, I get it. They wanted to leave the Doctor at the end of the ‘God Complex’, but then they just went back and fourth. The whole ‘Power of Three’ episode was basically if they wanted to travel with the Doctor or stay on Earth with normal lives, in which at the end, they chose to go with him. One of the annoying parts of Series 7A was that they chose to travel with the Doctor, only to be killed off an episode after.
I do think, though, that that was kind of the point. Their story was wrapped up by the God Complex, everything was done. Then the Doctor just wanted to bring them back because he missed them, and because of his decision, they died a few episodes later, and I really think that adds to the tragedy of the story; the Ponds died because the Doctor couldn't let them go, and the Doctor's grief only compounds because of this.
"Maybe that's what happens if you touch the Doctor. Even for a second."
Yes, I get that. I think it was a lesson the Doctor should have learned ages ago.
What do you think?
