deathbycoldopen asked: I totally agree about Moffat. I used to get crazy defensive about him, because I was really blown away by season 5 when it turned out that it had an actual narrative arc instead of repeating words every once in a while. But by the beginning of season 7 it's been clear that Moffat has been sacrificing plot and character in order to make way for quippy jokes, twists that don't actually make any sense, and a general sense that big! and exciting! aren't necessarily better. /end rant

oh hey you know what would have been a funnier way to do that “god knows how that would have looked” line? If you’d SHOWED us how it looked, not told us how it looked. But ok.

We’ve started finding new impossible things for Clara to do: Clara makes an impossible sandwich. Clara goes to an impossible zoo. Clara takes an impossible bus. Clara gets an impossible electric bill.

I’M LAFFIN
