invisibleunicornninja This episode does so much wrong I can make a whole review listing stupid stuff from it off the top of my head. -The kid has both DC and Marvel comics. Either he's smart enough to appreciate Marvel or he's dumb enough to be a DC fan - he can't be both.-The Doctor never explains why he was setting up a trap on top of the roof. -The Doctor doesn't spend Christmas taking the kid around the universe trying to get the thing out of him (this is just a better idea for a story I came up with - also it doesn't make a whole lot of sense that the Doctor doesn't try to get the thing out of him).-The music is mixed so loud that its next to impossible to understand anything anyone is saying. -Its pretty dark. Normally, I wouldn't be against that but this is a special, something that people who aren't regular fans of the show are more prone to watch. I don't see how putting some of the ugliest character designs I've ever seen in your special is a very good idea. -This is a Superman parody. On its own, that sounds like it could be good, right? The problem is that they do nothing with it. The "love interest is a reporter that can't tell the difference between friend and hero even though they barely do anything to alter their appearance" isn't funny on its own. Its frustratingly annoying unless there are jokes.-Its not funny. I'm not saying that Doctor Who is a comedy, but its usually somewhat light-hearted, even in more serious episode. This is a show that is somewhat known for witty (and sometimes goofy) banter. There are a few scenes that try to be funny but they barely work. Only one or two jokes actually work, and that's being generous. There is Pokemon Go reference that was already dated when it came out, and it doesn't even make sense in context. Its a very bad idea to inject internet culture into your movie or show because by the time it comes out the internet has moved on. A guy being a "Manny" isn't funny on its own. The only thing that's funny about this episode is how much it fails. -This ends on a cliffhanger that will never be resolved, and its painfully stupid. Honestly this episode has a set up that could have gone in dozens of different directions (one of which I mentioned). They did nothing with the plot they picked, and I wouldn't even recommend this episode to fans of the show.

Dalekrider I can't believe this is by Steven Moffat. I was expecting it would be good! This is not doctor who. I was buying loads of stuff to get more evidence about it and it actually sounded cool. the actual episode was a big mistake. The doctor goes into America and brings a superhero to life. what is this? SUPERMAN???? You can leave this one out guys. It is not what you were expecting it would be.

gbraver our time is precious. We watch Dr Who for a variety of reasons but not to waste our time with junk science fiction and rip off's of other stories. Too bad, after a year of waiting I thought I would be excited at the return.With episodes like this they shouldn't have bothered returning

jsbailey-88074 I eagerly awaited the first new episode of Doctor Who in a year, and it did not disappoint! While I've never been a particularly huge fan of the superhero genre, I did like the nods to Superman, which I watched from time to time as a child. I never thought that having X-ray vision could be so troublesome! ;)I enjoyed the lighthearted moments in The Return of Doctor Mysterio much as I did while watching The Husbands of River Song last year. It's refreshing to see some humorous episodes after the conclusion of the dark but gripping Series 9. Peter Capaldi is brilliant at comedy--I was laughing out loud at several points in the story. Here's to hoping he stays at least four seasons. Three is simply not enough for one Doctor!
