Time of the Doctor - Review

Doctor Who News: Reports that Doctor Who was the second most watched  show on Christmas Day, the good Doctor had 8.29 million viewers in the overnight rating, as the article notes when you break down the episode the last five minutes had 10.2 million viewers, the highest of any show on the day. 

Lets Get Real: 

Matt Smith was a great Doctor, a fan favourite, this was a great episode to go out on, it had fun, drama, sadness, but also that end when the Time Lords ( Spoiler ) helped the Doctor out, lets just say we have the Doctor still, Daleks beware.   It was interesting to see the Doctor face his own death, and not really fight against it for most of the episode, he had used up his 12 regenerations, he had fought the good fight but it was over, then the Time Lords came and gave him ( Spoiler ) and he was back on form, taking on the enemies of mankind and the Time Lords.    It was nice reference to River, and of course it was perfect to see Amy ( Karen Gillan ) back, saying goodbye to her Doctor and we the viewers to the 11th Doctor and final Doctor of this regeneration cycle.  

This fan question, is the 13th Doctor not just the 1st of the new cycle, if you see what I mean, see the episode first.   The good Doctor is going to be around for a long time folks, long after this blogger has gone up to the blogger cloud, the Doctor will be his Tardis, fighting the good fight.
