What to Know

Critics Consensus

A bit of narrative weakness aside, "Knock Knock" is a wonderful mix of nostalgia, horror, humor, and monsters that culminates into a powerful and emotionally complex episode.

One, I am loving it. The writing is superb, and Peter Capaldi and Pearl Mackie make the best team since Sylvester McCoy and Sophie Aldred (Or, Paul McGann and India Fisher for my Big Finish Audio fans). I'm thoroughly enjoying that. Go to Full Review
