No, I think that's a good thing, I just also think the episode it's in is shitty.

Which, surely, is not an unreasonable point to make? Like, say The Twin Dilemma was exactly the same except it contained unambiguous canonical confirmation that Time Lords could change gender when they regenerate. It would still be a fucking awful episode, right?

I like that Moffat did the one thing, I just don't like many of the other things he did. This is not a difficult position to understand. And I don't think liking the one thing means that I'm somehow obligated to stop criticizing him for the other things. It's like in your mind there's some kind of bizarre contractual relationship between a writer and his fans, where as long as he throws us a bone every once in a while, we're somehow obligated to keep quiet and like what he does. But that's not the way it works. My opinion of Steven Moffat is not the sum of some internal arithmetic I do regarding where he's moving Doctor Who, it's an evaluation of whether or not he's writing good episodes of TV, and I don't think he is.
