DenOfGeek Has A Review
Of April's First Post-Davies
Episode Of DOCTOR WHO!!

I am – Hercules!!
The first episode of “Doctor Who” since controversial longtime showrunner Russell T. Davies exited the series won’t hit the BBC until April 3 and won’t hit BBC America until April 17, but Den Of Geek has already seen it. Excerpt:
If we were being ultra-critical we’d argue that the story itself is ultimately the weakest part of The Eleventh Hour (although we did love elements of it, which again we don't want to spoil here), yet that’d be really tough criticism. Because like it or lump it, this episode came with responsibility on its shoulders (being a mix of opening episode, new era for the programme and new actors to bed in), and Moffat deals with it brilliantly at times. Some of his one liners are outstanding, too, and he's clearly having great fun with the comedy elements of the show. The absolute highlight for us was the superb way that the new assistant is brought into the story. It's just brilliant. Again, no spoilers, short of to say that by the time the end credits roll, understandable layers of depth to the character of Amy Pond have already been added as a result. That’s some achievement, and it’s going to stand the show in good stead.
