A behind the scenes look at the making of the Doctor Who Christmas special and the farewell party for Matt Smith.
If you haven't watched the Christmas special (if so why not) there are spoilers sweetie!

As for what is coming next, the DW series 8 started filming on Jan. 7 and it will conclude in August. The episodes are supposed to air in the third quarter of this year, and it will be a full season, or series as the Brits call it.

I am not even that fond of Claira... they need a good looking Dr and a new (or a few new) sidekicks.
The lizard lady is still cool...

It pains me to say this, as I've always liked Peter Capaldi, but I don't think he's a very good Doctor Who. When all the other doctors changed, they brought their own unique personality to the show but there was a core part of the doctor that was still there. However Capaldi doesn't have that spark and it's been very disappointing to watch him as The Doctor. Add to that there's been some weak writing in this seasons stories and it's just not a good year. The episode I've enjoyed the most (which isn't saying much) is the most recent one because it was more about Clara than The Doctor.
BTW, they've already announced that Clara will be leaving the show in the Christmas special. Here's hoping they get a new Doctor too.
So of course I have done that a few times.

Not every episode is a winner but sometimes things surprise you. For example one of the doctors companions is a person who I didn't like much from her other work. So I had low expectations when she became the doctors companion but she and the writers did an excellent job and some of the episodes she was in are my favorites now.
So start with the relaunch in 2005 (the 'new' Doctor Who series) and give it three or four episodes and you'll be hooked. You won't regret it.
Not a fan of Clara. I see complaints from people about how it feels to Clara-focused. And really, I think all of them have been companion-focused anyway, so that can't be it. I guess it is too Clara-focused, and I'm just not a fan of her. She's not bad. I don't hate her or anything, but I'd prefer her to be a short-term companion instead of this long-term one that she has become.
I just acquired the first 7 episodes of the season, and watched them all over the weekend. So it felt like it was very rushed from the "I'm not your boyfriend, Clara" to "Fine, I'm going to find a new boyfriend then!"
I'm just not feeling like this is connected.
Maybe it would feel more connected if we got an old companion back. They made just a quick mention of River for a second. Anybody! It would help tie things in a bit better. And River had made a comment when she met 10 that made it sound like she had seen the Doctor with a different face before - not just 11. I think pulling someone else in might help things feel more familiar.
Edit:
And as soon as I hit the "Post Reply" button, I realized... This might be what they tried to do with the "Paternoster Gang" but I am thinking characters that have been more involved than them.
