Please do. The first episode had some good bits (especially the very first couple of scenes where the Autons come to life) but also some of the worst (pretty much anything involving Mickie). I'd like to say it's the worst episode of the new series, but sadly that distinction is reserved for Aliens of London/WWIII which starts out ok, and then swiftly degenerates into a 90 minute long stinkfest of flatulent aliens and even more abysmal acting.
Now that 12 out of the 13 episodes have aired, I can say that the episode hierarchy goes something like this:
1. awful 2. meh 3. meh 4. awful 5. god awful! 6. brilliant! 7. great! 8. good 9. good 10. good 11. meh 12. great! 13. (most likely) great or brilliant!
As you can see, the better episodes are all stacked towards the end of the season, and you've already sat through one of the worst, so it's (for the most part) all uphill from here.
If you want to stop by any time after this Sunday, I can hook you up with a DVD-R of the rest of the series. You're more than welcome to stop by earlier, but you'll definitely not going to want to miss the season finale.
