I gave Matt Smith a fair crack or the whip and i feel he is only as good as the writing but he is far from Tom baker or David tennant , John Pertwee, william Hartnell and Christopher Eccleston who i preferred as doctors ..i liked the early episodes with him , but i feel the writing has gone way off , the doctor in the episode was not mega intelligent and did not solve the problem by coming left field.. I actually think House MD has more in common with old doctors , with him knowing he is the smartest person in the room socially awkward and saying random comments ..pond corrected The doctor over a small thing , he carried a gun , he never came across as uber smart. it tends to be a lot of psycho babble talking the young rioter down. i also felt sad for the leading man in farscape being a small side character in this episode.
I do feel the Dinosaurs the western setting Egypt are all things they know sell so write episodes around that rather than writing a good dialogue science based show.
will still watch it though!!
what surprised me is a friend on facebook who is a massive fan said "Worst episode of Doctor Who ever. Not happy."
He goes to conventions and is obsessed with Dr Who.
