Just caught up on the last two episodes of Doctor Who and all I can say is that it was awesome. I know that a lot of people haven't been too fond of Matt Smith's Doctor, but I love him. I love the fact that he's arrogant and a bit of a dick, especially when you look at it as someone who has lived through everything David Tennant's Doctor lived through and then come out the other side. He's the right mixture of fun and scary.
As for the story telling, yes there were a couple of weaker episodes, but the season finale blew me away. I absolutely love the way they tied everything that'd happened in the preceeding episodes together. Continuity wasn't forgotten. Neither were the fun elements, even though it was a fairly apocalyptic couple of episodes. After the seriously depressing turn the end of the last season/four standalone of David Tennant's Doctor, this whole series was refreshing.
So, yeah. Looking forward to the Christmas special, and hopefully another season with Matt Smith.
