"You're not matin' with me sunshine!"
the mime scene won me over.
From the Brilliant Book: "We had more public interest from Let's Kill Hitler - just those three words - than any trailer we've ever done, so let's do a series like that, where we really 'slut it up'. That's what I've been saying in my writer briefings just this week: 'Write it like a movie poster. Let's do big, huge, mad ideas.' Every week, we should say, 'Next week: THIS!'"
Fuck off Moffat.
Just fuck off and let someone who wants to write good stories, not just vomit up endless utterly predictable "twists" and "surprises" be in charge.

They're not necessarily predictable twists, well...
To the average Doctor Who viewer, they probably never saw these twists coming.
To the average Doctor Who fan, they know something's coming
To the average Doctor Who TrekBBS poster, we know what's coming. With our collective contributions, we come up with the possible twists and narrow it down to one or two. Then, usually one of them is the right one.
It's all in your point of (Doctor Who) view(ing).

Fan: Will there be corridors in series seven?
Moffat: Well...I wouldn't want to spoil anything, but...
Fan: Will there be any big returns in series 7?
Moffat: (Chuckles.) It's been awhile since we've seen an honest-to-goodness quarry, hasn't it?
And also I ROFL'd at the post about the prequel to the Delta and the Bannerman storyline. One of the unfortunate things about Doctor Who is that it's so absurd that most things come off as quasi-plausible and for a moment I saw a title screen intro for "The TollMaster."

How dare he write Doctor Who to be fun! Having fun is a petty indulgence, and any respectable television program about a shape-shifting human alien who travels through time in a wooden box while fighting talking salt shakers should thoroughly above that.
^ How did you get "twists" and "surprises" from wanting to do big, huge, mad ideas? That doesn't necessarily mean let's make the audience bend over backwards to figure out what we're showing them.
What else has he done in the past two years? And they're always rubbish.
Who's in the lake? Oh, it's River.
Who's the baby? Oh, it's River.
Who's Mels? Oh, it's River.
How will the Doctor get out of the Pandorica? Oh, it's timey-wimey bollocks. Again.
How will the Doctor get out of dying? Oh, it was a robot.
^ Rubbish to you and perhaps a minority here but not the rest of us. Although I have stated that series six was pretty messy and not fully enjoyable as series five was. The Mels thing was really disappointing to me.
Really? The old "it's only your opinion" line? Doesn't make it any less valid.
I didn't say that your opinion or feelings regarding Moffat and his handling of the series wasn't valid. Of course it is...I was saying that it was yours though (if in fact it is) and I disagree with it.
Why don't you just stop watching?
Seriously if I don't really like a show I STOP WATCHING!
EXACTLY!
i just don't understand this masochistic tendency among some people on here to keep watching a show they hate. and it boggles my mind even more when you call them on it and they go 'oh, well i'm watching to see if it gets better.'
you been watching for more than 2 seasons and still hate it, so clearly it's not going to get better for you so stop watching!

It's something that I've never understood it either. These vocal minority who continue watching I guess in the hopes that it will be better but doesn't for them and they trash over it continually. They're fully entitled to their opinion and to express it but...if it's been this long and it hasn't changed their mind you think they would have dropped the show by now. I have friends that have done exactly that with the Moffat and Smith run. That is what I do with shows I don't like any more either.
me too!
i did it with Hyperdrive after 2 episodes and Outcasts. i didn't enjoy it, so i stopped watching. simple.

I guess it's just like a dead end marriage for some people.
