A Town Called Mercy v.s. The Doctor’s Daughter

A GREAT EXAMPLE OF MOFFAT’S INCREDIBLE SHOW RUINING SKILLS

… Okay, I don’t defend Moffat’s show-writing abilities much, but:

1. This episode was written by Toby Whithouse and directed by Saul Metzstein. Neither of which are Moffat.
2. These parallels (or, really, lack-there-of) are purposeful. It’s not discontinuity based on bad writing. It’s showing the dark path the Doctor’s going down. He’s meant to be waving about a gun and throwing the other doctor over the barrier, because he’s losing his sense of morality, patience, everything, really. He’s tired. He’s broken. He’s guilt-ridden and drowning in his own self-hatred, so much so that he genuinely doesn’t know. It’s not bad writing - it’s character development.

YES. THANK YOU

THIS.

Leave Moffat alone - especially when he WASN’T EVEN INVOLVED.

Guys, if we had no character development for the MAIN CHARACTER this show would flop. If we didn’t have the Doctor changing his morals every now and again it would fucking flop ok. The Doctor is going down a dark path, he can’t stay the same if that’s happening.
