Created by Sydney Newman, C.E. Webber & Donald Wilson. Directed by Saul Metzstein. Written by Steven Moffat. Starring Matt Smith & Jenna Coleman.

Concept: 2/4 (Indifferent). Um... your show did this already, Moffat. Remember the 10th Doctor? No?
Story: 1/4 (Bad)
Characters: 3/4 (Good). Victorian Governess Clara is a great companion, up until the end of the episode where they're all like "ooooh, mystery," and why can't they just go on adventures damn it.
Dialog: 4/4 (Great)
Pacing: 3/4 (Good)
Cinematography: 2/4 (Indifferent)
Special effects/design: 3/4 (Good)
Acting: 3/4 (Good)
Music: 2/4 (Indifferent)
Subjective Rating: 8/10 (Great, 4/4). The plot is complete gibberish, but that's okay because most of the focus is just on the characters, who are a lot of fun.
Objective Rating (Average): 2.7/4 (Good)
