The Rings of Akhatenn (S7:E07)

[frayadjacent]

It had that earnest sense of wonder at life that I associate with the early RTD era (and may very well be a part of Classic Who as well, I wouldn't know) combined with the lovely high budget visuals of the Moffat era. I loved the recurring motif of the vast range of things that must happen to make us who we are.  And it didn't apply just to humans!

I loved Clara in this episode as well! And the Doctor–I felt a nice sense of continuity between Eleven and the two previous Doctors, which is  something I often struggle with in trying to make sense of the character.

I'm also officially a fan of the new titles, though my favorite will probably always be the ones circa S3, because I really liked how the “Doctor Who” scrolled across the screen to the music. Still, these are quite nice as well.

I like Doctor Who, but often I enjoy DW vids and other fannish creations and discussions more than the actual show. This time, I found myself loving the show in and of itself.

I'm not thrilled with the current title music, but I'm glad the Doctor's face is back in the credits. AS IT SHOULD BE.

LOL, I didn't even notice the music changed. Or by current, do you mean all of NuWho? I still haven't seen any Classic Who.

NuWho - part of me is stubbornly convinced that the only REAL title sequence is Doctor Three's. *g*
