Kill the Moon – Doctor Who Extra: Series 1 Episode 7

Doctor Who Extra Title Card“Kill the Moon” is the latest episode of “Doctor Who” which just aired the other night. Seven episodes down and I’m not seeing much of an improvement in terms of story quality. It had its entertaining moments (mostly thanks to Capaldi), but the stories and creative elements seem to still be lacking. In my opinion, the show appears to be running on empty and needs a bit of a jump start again.

Time Heist – Doctor Who Extra: Series 1 Episode 5

Doctor Who Extra Title Card“Time Heist” is Peter Capaldi’s fifth episode in as the new Doctor. His run of episodes is definitely getting better, but I still feel as if something is missing from this season. It just doesn’t seem as much fun as the previous seasons. And I don’t know why.   As I mentioned previously, maybe it’s just time to change up companions. Maybe mix up the chemistry a bit with some new blood.

Into the Dalek – Doctor Who Extra: Series 1 Episode 2 (Video)

Into the Dalek - Doctor Who Extra_ Series 1 Episode 2 (2014).mp4.Still002It’s still to early in Capaldi’s run to truly judge the new direction of the show.  But so far, I really like it.  I’m taking to him quicker than I did Matt Smith (who eventually really grew on me).  But as much as I like the show thus far, we haven’t really gotten a good grasp on who this new Doctor is or who he is becoming.  It may be intentional or it may be that Capaldi and Moffat was still searching for the new Doctor’s voice at this point.
