Agreed.  Also the writing and direction just isn't "Dr Who" to me.

Just finished "Dinosaurs in space", meh.

Steven Moffat canceled his twitter account due to the outpouring of love he got after Dinos in Space...

 Yeah, I've read that because of the high number of watchers he ignores any constructive criticism. But as a fan, I continue to watch hoping that the show will return to the greatness It once was. The awesome episodes like Blink are becoming rare. And as much as I would like a new Doctor, I agree with eviltimes. Not even David Tennant can save a bad script.

A Town Called Mercy review:  http://www.aintitcool.com/node/58338

[eviltimes]

The Last Ship was a terrible post apocalyptic mess with the women half of the crew taking over and screwing everything up, and any writer who's going to have such plot twists on a not so futuristic USN Destroyer (with fantasy not since the early 1980's nuclear tipped missiles, I might add) should have a lot more study in ship design and USN trends in naval architecture and weapons systems.  That would be one film where I would be happy if they just bought the title and threw away the storyline.
