Too many ideas without enough time to let them sink in.<br /><br />And since we knew Capaldi was waiting in the wings, there were never any real stakes. <br /><br />I also need to see it again. Too many important things that were glibly explained away.<br /><br />Did they just blow all their budget/ideas/everything on the 50th, with nothing to spare for the xmas special? Seems so to me. And it's a shame...Smith deserved a better farewell.chrishttp://www.notreallyaurl.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7735644144263744003.post-1750977017431414302013-12-26T07:17:36.977-05:002013-12-26T07:17:36.977-05:00My thoughts exactly.
