I've also polished off the last of this season of Doctor Who, and I'm sad - sad that it took me this long to put this miserable bear of a season to rest. The finale was better than most of the season, (then again, the worst fan fiction is better than clunkers like "Kill the Moon), but even so it just recycled the same ol' enemies.
I like the new Doctor, even if his accent sometimes necessitates captioning, but I don't think the show knows where to *take* his character. While they fumble around trying to iron that out, they've butchered Clara's character. And don't get me started on the idiotic Danny Pink character, with his oft repeated "just like an officer" line, and his yawn inducing PTSD, and his 1950's-esque obsession with taking Clara away from the life she loves and tying her down to one spot like a good little Mrs.
This sex change of the Master is a turd too - why not make her the Rani and do something mildly interesting? If this was my first season of Doctor Who, it might have been my ONLY season too.
