New Who Review for Into the Dalek

Usual rules please. Spoilers are allowed in the comments for all episodes including this one but nothing beyond.

When I heard that we were going to visit the Daleks again, I will admit to feeling a little trepidation but got to give Moffat credit, that episode stood a lot of the tropes we know so well on their heads.

Mr. Capaldi continues to impress me. Jenna Coleman has been given some hard things to play but she does it quite well. I hope we see more of Samuel Anderson because the opening bit was brilliant both in writing and acting.

The story was pretty tight and they did give it an ending that made sense given what had happened. Also they have changed the game with the Daleks to where I want to know what happens next.

Next the Robot of Sherwood which looks like we are back to the whimsy of Dr. Who.

I am grateful that the Daleks are interesting to me again.
