There is a problem with the current series and its name is Clara. They keep bringing it all back to her and she's BORING. She's too perfect, inconsistent (one minute she knows just what to do or say, the next she needs to be told what to do), being developed too little too late, and EXTREMELY dull. In fact, my brother's compared her to Rose and I agree. She is Rose II Turbo, and Danny is Mickey-Lite. Diet Mickey. Mickey Zero. The stories aren't that great this series either.
No complaints about Capaldi's Doctor though. I like him. He's partly why I'm still onboard.
