Dark Water
Series 8 | Episode 11
In the mysterious world of the Nethersphere, plans have been drawn. Missy is about to come face to face with the Doctor, and an impossible choice is looming...
Extra on saturday night sure is compulsory viewing, since Moffat gives you so much about the characters development in every Extra.
@Stickeyfingers, for me it has become a weekend experience, ABC have hit us with perfection for me in this scheduling.
And a combination of great stuff in the show, Capaldi is a joy, Jenna continues to delight me, and finally Moffat has hit a sweet spot.
He has cleaned up his own story telling, and engaged and directed the other writers.
He has flipped his usual style, he is producing this series much more along RTD lines.
IE the story arc is minimal, clues and suggestions and mystery - and held in the background where it belongs. Far more effective and dramatic.
Each episode has a contained and complete story and mystery, with a beginning,middle and end.
And the stories are cleaner and stronger, and there is no need for all of that horrid torture of characters, the ordeals of Amy/Rory were too constant and overdone.
The story arc is yet to be resolved, or even given life, hope it works. Regardless it is where it belongs in the background at last.
Previously it was like Moffat was on acid tripping through his backstories that never ended, until we finally got rid of River - who he made me hate.
He hit is straps with the 50th,, fell back with Matt's final, and is now flowing, quite differently.
Definitely the live thing beaming through the universe direct to me snuggled up in bed at dawn - is magic.
And, as for how many times viewing.
I had a rather strong addiction during Tennant's doctor, I own all of his series, and Eccelston.
So I have viewed them a lot

Always downloaded back then as well, bugger waiting 6 months - they got their money and double back since I bought them as well.
I stopped buying then, I do have one of Matt's with souffle girl.
And strangely I only really appreciated Matt fully viewing his series a few times, he does subtle stuff, and is a real revelation I found on 2nd and 3rd viewing.
And I would focus on his awesome face and every little thing he does I find so beautiful in Matt.
