Capaldi, we now know, will go out all arms blazing and protesting his head off.

We have seen very good female characters in the series and it may be the cornerstone that 'Doctor Who' needs to grow even more in years to come. [Full review in Spanish]

Taken in full, "The Pilot" was less than the sum of its parts.

The point, we think, isn't that the show is too dark; it's that it's too repetitive in its modern form.

I think some of this season can be a bit boring in the middle, with Oxygen being another Vincent and The Doctor for me where I like quite a lot of it but think a good chunk of it isn't quite captivating enough, and Eaters of Light just didn't grab me. All the same, episodes like The Pilot, Extremis, and the finale make it impossible to give this anything but 5 stars. Bill is a wonderful character throughout and she will remain one of my favorite companions for years to come. Missy's story this season was nothing short of exceptional, and it captured someone who wanted to change for someone extremely well. Smile is an episode I could recommend to anyone, and despite my early comments episodes like Knock Knock are not worth skipping even if I don't think they are as amazing as the highlights.

Capaldi had a LOT of potential as a real fan of the show, but the writers clearly hate the show. "Bill Potts" character was just "diversity" in human form, not given "character".

Although this was not my favorite series of Capaldi's era, there are several episodes that are worth watching. Now that DW has been utterly destroyed - first under Chibnall and now with RTD's "The Message" nonsense - this series is looking better by comparison.

This season has a few obvious duds, but capaldi keeps it all together l, and bill potts and nardole are pretty good.

Whilst there is a mid-season lull, the worst episode in the season is still a solid 7/10. The two part finale is among Capaldi's finest moments as an actor, let alone the Doctor

A fantastic season all around. Bill and Nardole are my favorite companions. Extremis and the finale two parter are some of the best Doctor Who episodes ever written.
