so... just finished the episode. pretty hard to describe what i think about it. i like that they have finally caught up with the quality of visual effects and stuff. but that also means that it now looks like a typical generic sci-fi show. the new doctor tries very hard to show excitement and confusion. not feeling it yet. the new companions are pretty awful. though it would be strange if they keep all three in future episodes. it is not as bad as i had feared. i am definitely looking forward to upcoming episodes. i just hope that it does get better from here!
