capri0mni | I've been planning to write a season-wide, ep-by-ep, report card of Doctor Who

...For weeks, now -- ever since "Forest of the Night." It feels like forever, 'cause I've been holding back until after the Finale.

But --

The only thing I've been actively doing, today, is finding ways to avoid writing it. This could be because I don't want the season to be over already. Or it could just be that writing up a detailed critique of each episode in a single round-up post feels like a lot of work. And I'm didn't sleep all that well last night, so I'm tired and headachey. It's probably both. But I'll blame tiredness, and make this a quick-n-lazy "placeholder" post, with percentage/letter grades for each episode, only -- no commentary or reasons. I'll do my commentary in another post (or several? Maybe I'll spread the squee and criticism out over the coming weeks, to tide me over 'til the Christmas Special?).

Okay, so Here Goes:

"Deep Breath" -- 93% (A)
'Into the Dalek" -- 91% (A)
'Robot of Sherwood" 86% (B+)
"Listen" -- 84% (B)
"Time Heist" -- 75% (C)
"The Caretaker" -- 75% (C)
"Kill the Moon" -- 45% (F)
"Mummy on the Orient Express" -- 95% (A+)
"Flatline' -- 95% (A+)
"In the Forest of the Night" -- 57% (F)
"Dark Water" -- 97% (A+)
"Death in Heaven" -- 97% (A+)

Plain Average for the overall season (All Episodes given equal weight, rounded up to the nearest whole point): 83% (B)
