    MP> A lot of people have been slamming her performance.  I think she was   
    MP> not bad as the Dr.  However, I had trouble with the pace of the   
    MP> episodes and maybe the writing.  It was like they spent a lot of time   
    MP> building up to the resolution and then did not have enough time to   
    MP> really solve them in a way that I found satisfying.  Maybe there were   
    MP> too many companions to cover?   
      
   I thought she was great as a performer. I have enjoyed her in other shows   
   including Broadchurch which contains a whole host of Dr. Who allums.   
      
    MP> I felt like they sort of made it up as they went along more than   
    MP> previous Doctors did.   
      
   New writers are to blame. I much prefered the stuff from the previoud   
   writing team.   
      
    MP> I also liked her quirkiness.  I did not like the one story that the   
    MP> Daleks were involved in.  I could not put my finger on it, but it felt   
    MP> like it broke continuity somehow.  The one with the giant spiders, and   
    MP> the season opener, were both pretty blah.  The two I liked the most   
    MP> were the one with the mirrorworld, and the one with the witches.   
      
    MP> So, I cannot say she was a bad Dr., but I can say it was not my   
    MP> favorite season.  It may even be my least favorite of the "new" series.   
      
   I don't like the creature of the week style episodes with a smaller long   
   term arc. They really should go back to a season long arc.   
      
   All-in-all, I was happy with her casting and her performace. I would also   
   like to see the series go a bit darker with their story lines.
