Can we all agree that there isn't a single episode in Doctor Who's series seven that doesn't have a plothole you can drive a lorry through

I found myself terribly disappointed with Clara as the companion after Amelia and Rory. I liked them. I was invested in them. They tried to hard to make Clara and mystery instead of vocusing on actual plots and character development.
It was 'fun' but not what I've come to expect from Doctor Who. Though I will be watching the 50th anniversary special. David Tennant for the win!!!
And what was Amy and Rory's last episode about anyway? The whole thing was a giant plot device and why the hell can't the Doctor visit them wherever they end up? Their death is fixed, but that doesn't mean he can't visit, especially since River obviously does, and when does the library happen for her anyway and why does nobody mention it and when did the Doctor start kissing people at random and plot holes, there are so many plot holes.
Series six was a sucker, plotwise, too, but the characters carried it.
Nothing carried the last few episodes. And seriously "Introducing John Hurt as the Doctor"?
I was always proud of Doctor Who for not resorting to cheap ploys like that and, apparently, I wasn't done venting after all.
The flimsy far-reaching reasoning behind him being unable to go back to that time was the Weeping Angels wrecked that section of history by repeatedly sending people back to it. It's created a weak point in time? That's what I took from it and River can't visit them either from what I understood - of course how and when did she write the book then

Yeah, the Angels screwed with that time. And what about five years later? Ten, fifteen? They live to their eighties. That whole stretch can't be screwed or the Doctor would never get anywhere anymore

::chindesk:: I hear ya. I stopped watching after Asylum of the Daleks cuz I was hoping 'insane' for daleks would translate into 'rational', 'everyone else's concept of sane', 'accepting of others as they are', and 'peaceful.'
The first time a Dalek shows up after the time war, in series one, it's 'insane', in a way that it has actual emotions. It grieves, it hurts. It wants peace. In that ep, it's the Doctor who's the monster, not the Dalek.

Best ep of the ninth Doctor, imo.
