Still cogitating and considering before I share my own thoughts on Saturday's premiere (I agree with one commenter on the reaction post that it's a solid 8 out of 10, but with a couple of issues I'm still trying to put my finger on - Capaldi was fantastic, anyway). In the meantime, the BBC website has summarised
some reviews of Deep Breath (a lot of people seem to have liked it).
This line made me laugh, after several paragraphs of professional critics gushing:
However fans of the series appeared less convinced.
But...but that's why we're fans! ;D
More reactions here (The closing observation of the last review on the page is actually the exact opposite of my own opinion on the issue! :D)
Ratings here for those of you who are into that kind of thing And audience appreciation stats And next week...
