For things that are "hmmm".

Rule 1: All post titles except for meta posts should be just plain "hmmm" and nothing else, no emotes, no capitalisation, no extending it to "hmmmm" etc.

Moffatt was great for short burts. Often the best episode of the season, or a great little mini-arc across 2-3 episodes. His problems always manifest when he is writing whole seasons. He quickly goes off the rails and backs himself into stupid corners trying to one-up the episode before.

I agree that having Moffat come in and so the best episode/multi episode of the season was optimal. Even then, I'm not sure the other showrunners they had was all that great either. I'm not the world's biggest RTD fan.
