OP, I am curious which aspect of his writing you like? I am one of those who think he cannot run a show as he goes for grandeour and overarching plots while sucking at pacing and character depth. I did like RTD for fleshing backgrounds out and how his characters interacted (I mostly enjoyed Rose's parents and Martha's family, although his bookends also were abrupt with convenient and shallow plot twists like Martha and Mickey getting together, Doctor being cloned and Rose's mum landing an alternate universe version of her husband ... making all her's and Roses' arc cheaper). Moffat does good short plot lines but not much else - Dr. Who and Sherlock are not even prime examples - Jekyll was.

Some of us like grandeour and overarching plots. And I think that he can be good at character depth. Not always, and he draws it out, but Amy was well fleshed out. And Clara took longer, but by the end I think she was fleshed out as well. And Bill was given depth pretty quickly.

I guess I written it long as I meant him not writing the 'middle' point and aftermath of those overarching plots? RTD was also doing that and he closed them off too quickly and easily for me but he had well written charachters to fill in (to me at least).

I think Amy's overall plot was what I did not like as her first season was all build up and then it jumped to very deep and serious issues ... which got ignored (such as the whole alternate universe her, her best friend setting up her whole life up, her suddenly getting her memories back and a lot of ... similar things?).

Then he repeated same with Clara and she was quite a strong character from the start and you could leave her vague and all jumbled up across all timelines and universes but she did not stand out with her own world - her family was only mentioned in Christmas special and her boyfriend felt as if shoved in.

RTD was not better as he written overarching emotional arcs but he felt better to me due to him writing backgrounds well (then again - as you say - someone might like Moffat's and I am biased as I do not like him in running seat of anything).

(Was angriest at Moffat just dumping a baby on Amy when her wanting fame and Rory wanting settling down conflict happened as it could have been in background as subtle tone for the season but to me it lacked any grounding afterwards.)

(To be fair, I might be more biased as lived with BFF of someone involved this listened to person who worked with Moffat)
