DW: Season 7

Hey,
i just rewatch the seventh season of Doctor Who. The season that made want to give up on this serie. The season i fought me through almost every episode just because it is Doctor Who. For everyone that find the season good i am sorry, but for me it was bad so, so, so bad. It was the worth Doctor Who season ever. The rewatch don’t make it better… it make it worse to telling the truth.

First Part

The first part of this season is all about Amy and Rory. I was so excited for the first episode, because Daleks and than that… Amy and Rory want to get divorced can it come worse… yeah the episode is just so bad… that is real life and at the end everything is back to the perfect little life they had. Not just the first episode in every episode i have the feeling that there is no love for the characters anymore. There is character developement, and the don’t get time to shine. They just there so the Doctor can look good. This fight between Amy and Rory this could have been something great, something that they can fight for. We could have seen them proving themself to each other and not just erasing it like it never happend.

The only not bad episodes are ‘Dinosaurs on a spaceship’ and ‘the power of three’ but you just can look to close. The power of three is not logical at all, but everything else is good. Why i like the dinosaurs on the spaceship is a thing that i totally miss on Doctor Who. A group of people so different that have to interact with each other. I am still thing what a great season we could have with them as companions.

Amelias Last Goodbye

This episode could have been so good. The Weaping Angels and a big dramatic final for this amazing pair. I am truthfull i also cried by the rewatch but it could have been so much better. If the angels where just like ever and when the statue of liberty would have moved… what the fuck?!
Why had they showed this as a tragic end, why must the doctor so childish and imature to see that as losing? Amy and Rory are living a good life, a happy life, that is an happy end. They would have stopped traveling with the Doctor, they almost did the last time and we all know the Doctor stays never when they stop traveling with him. Never. He left Jo, when she got married, he never visited Ian or Barbara or even Susan.

Clara Oswin Oswad

I liked Clara a lot in Asylum of the Daleks and she was fun in the really boring Christmas Special. She is an nice character and i was really happy that she would become the Doctors Companion. I thought she become a little after Zoe. But than the first really episode came with her and Moffats takes all that away. All that knowledge she has was just a gift from her time uploaded…not herself. Also after that we don’t she her use any of it. She is just like every other companion in the new Who…doing what the Doctor expacts.
I just wanted a companion like Zoe. Which is more intelligent than the Doctor, one that things faster than him, just someone that totally can win a fight with him.

The second part

Is much worse…Clara is nice to see and they are many good ideas in it. The second episode is with the singing emotional, but the story isn’t really good. I am not a big fan of the eleventh Doctor but in that part will dislike him even more. All that impossible girl talk, all that why are you special. She is special. She is special because she is just a totally normal person. An ordinary girl with choose to travel with a stranger, which wants to see adventures, a girl that don’t run, a girl that stops and fight, a girl we see struggle with the death she is seeing. That is what makes her special and the Doctor never understand that is what makes her special not that he met her three times.

Old enimies…

The ice warrior is back. What lovely monsters they are. Than the bring them back and make everything they are wrong? Why bring him back, if you change everything? A icewarrior that left his shell and is super fast? A icewarrior you reason with. He is a warhero. An icewarrior of a team they wanted war, they loved war. When the Doctor tries to reason with him, if he wants to be know as the destroyer of earth the answer would be yes. That is what the icewarriors were. That is why the Doctor don’t like them, that is why the Doctor never believed the started peace.
So we have Daleks, Ice Warrior and that is not enough… lets make a bad story about cybermen… Cybermen that are fast and upgraded so fast… it was stupid and not scary… I dislike everything in that episode. The cybermen. The Doctor and the way he fights with the cybermen…it is nice to see all the faces but that is the only thing. Also i dislike Clara here a lot. The Doctor is at fault that the children are in danger and she just accept it? He has a time maschine. He could have brought them home and than came back. But no lets bring the kids in danger and Clara is jsut standing there and says okay. She just let him search for them and became a warrior… that is not Clara… not the Clara i like…she don’t struggle anymore.

The final

It is not so bad, but they are a few points that are stupid… and i don’t talk about the Great Intellegent stuff(which still don’t remember) that was totally stupid. I like the idea with Clara, because that is something Clara would do. But i hate that the whole season is a big friendly button. Nothing in that season has consequenzes. Jenny dead, but that Strax bring her back. Than Strax and Jenny dead again and they come back to life. Clara springs in that time stream to die but of course the Doctor brings her back. The Doctor should never visited Tranzalore but it just have no consequenzes…
Also i dislike that final wasn’t a final. It just was a prologe to the 50th anniversary special.
