I'm really not digging the new season thus far, and I can't put my finger on exactly why.



Each episode has watchable bits, and Karen Gillan has extremely pretty hair. But, for the most part, the season has been a big snore.

Is it too much of a kids' show? Well, the rainbow of Daleks was pretty annoying, although to be honest the physical redesign bothered me more than the recolor- that weird blocky thing the zap gun and the plunger come out of? Was that always there? (And, since the Dalek casing is a machine, why did they need genetic... never mind. That Progenitor thing is a jerk, I guess.)

Is it that the Doctor is full of himself? Yeah, kind of. That trap speech in episode 4 was a groaner. But all the Doctors are like that, even my beloved Ninth. (I almost typed "Nine." Heh.)

I don't understand it. The Empty Child was awesome. Blink was a lot of fun. What, if anything, changed? Is it just me? (Probably.)

Maybe Matt Smith will be better after he settles into the role. And, the way this usually goes, sooner or later, there will be a Twelfth Doctor. :)
