Steven Moffat.

Okay first of all, everybody freaking out about the Doctor’s name and Series 7b in general and whatnot needs to calm down.

Moffat loves him some trolling. Everyone should know this by now. Also, this show is more than just him and chances are it’s going to be okay.

…that being said…

I love this show and I’m still invested and I don’t even hate Moffat’s writing in general but it has actually gotten to the point now where I WANT to care SO BADLY and it’s like he’s purposely devising ways to make that impossible.

Only three episodes left in this series now, yet I still feel like we’re only on episode three or four. I WANT to know Clara, but I don’t. I WANT there to be some shred of continuity, but there isn’t. I’m grasping at crack theory straws because I know this could be so much better than it is. I still have hope that the end of this series could absolutely blow my mind apart, but it’s a very weak hope because I’ve been disappointed too many times.

This is exhausting.

Can we please talk about the fact that the Doctor/Clara ship name is “Whoufflé”?

Because this will never not be hilarious.

Happy Impossible Astronaut Day!
Can’t remember why I have tally marks all over my arms, though. Must not be important. Huh.

Okay this one might be less obvious, but.
There have been a TON of Rose references in these new episodes.
At first I thought I was imagining it.
But the noises I made when Clara started singing “Hungry Like the ~~Bad~~ Wolf” in Cold War…
…inhuman noises.
INHUMAN NOISES.
I swear there better be some SEVERE Rose Tyler in the 50th Anniversary or I will be in a rage.

The Rings of Akhaten!
Honestly I wasn’t quite feeling it for most of the episode. And I’m willing to overlook A LOT of this show’s issues. I mean I understand why people are getting upset with it lately, and God knows I have a special loathing for Moffat-flavored shenanigans (Series 6 arc, I’m looking at you). But I also think people love to rip New Who apart in a particularly vicious way. Even the best episodes have rants written about them that just pick and stab at the stupidest things. It makes me sad that people can’t seem to enjoy it for what it is at its heart - which, despite many problems and shortcomings, is still pretty unique and beautiful.

That being said, towards the end of this episode when the Doctor was staring down the planet-god, I couldn’t help thinking of Ten’s speech in The Satan Pit… and then Eleven’s speech happened, and Matt Smith’s acting set against the song… it just… I mean… that’s kind of why I love this show.

Still felt like just a mediocre episode overall, and I’m still nervous about the rest of Series 7, but at the end of the day I’m in it for moments like this. Sorry not sorry.
