I loved most of this special, but when that ending came all I could do was shout, "NOOOOOO. PLEASE NO MORE CLARA. NOOOOOO." Still, despite sticking us with more Clara next season, I'd rank this as the second best Christmas special after "The Christmas Invasion".

I rewatched this, lord knows why, but I'm starting to think they're ultimate intention was to purposely make an episode so crappy that people really would turn off the TV and go do something else.

When they started the #webelieveinyou thing, I really thought for a second they were talking about Mr. Hanky. Had epic potential that didn't pay off.

If Community actually gets its six seasons and a movie, the movie should be about Troy's return from his round-the-world boat trip. Would be amazing.

You missed the gluten free callback. The concert was a benefit to help African children with gluten allergies or something like that.

Is it still a paradox if one travels forward in time and becomes their own grandfather instead of going backwards in time and becoming their own grandfather???

Well technically we don't know where Day of the Doctor is within Twelve's timeline so just because they haven't explicitly mentioned or shown it doesn't mean it didn't happen for him yet. For all we know it could have been one of the very first things Twelve did after "Deep Breath", or he could have done it at any…

I just spent 15 minutes trying to come up with a clever Futurama reference to go with your awesome Futurama reference with no success. Guess my sense of humor is just failing today.

I seem to be in the minority here, but I'm in agreement with the review that this episode was pretty weak. Oh well.

We have the same top 4. Touche sir.

Pretty damn good episode. Not at all what I was expecting. I thought the explanation behind the rain being "cyber pollen" was a bit rubbish (and exactly how did the Cybermen blowing themselves up at the end get rid of the clouds when doing the same thing earlier created the clouds?), but it didn't really detract from…

Danny's emotion switch wasn't defective. "Dark Water" ended with a shot of him deciding whether to delete his emotions. His actions showed that he chose not to. I would assume the same for the Brigadier.

Prior to the finale, she only appeared in brief individual scenes. If you decide to watch the season just for her, you will be sorely disappointed.

I quite enjoy the Master, though none have been as great as the original played by Roger Delgado, and don't mind them bringing him back a bunch, but I'm with you on the Cybermen. Fuck the Cybermen. I think this pre-50th-anniversary special ranking of NuWho episodes put it best:
"…there has never been a consistently…

Empty Child/Doctor Dances is Moffat's best two-parter (yeah, I think people are starting to forget he even wrote that one) and the best two-parter of all NuWho.

I was hoping for Ben Chang

You got your universes wrong. N-space is Normal Space. Romana was left in e-space.

So who wants to start speculating about the finale? Den of Geek posted a spoiler-free review this morning:

I've started to find it strange that the Doctor was so certain he was the last Time Lords. Like, "Yeah, there's just NO WAY that any other members of my super advanced, billions-of-years-old race who can time travel and regenerate their bodies managed to escape the Time War." And when you consider the multiple…

100% agreed about Moffat getting rid of two-parters. Sure some of them were stinkers (I think we all know which ones), but more often they were some of the all-time best of both Classic and NuWho! There's no way amazing eps like Empty Child/Doctor Dances or Pandorica Opens/Big Bang would've been anywhere near the same…
