Doctor Who - Farewell Matt: Asylum of The Daleks




Doctor Who:
Asylum of the Daleks
By Steven Moffat

“You think hatred is beautiful”

Finally after months of waiting, 8 months and some change back in the Fall of 2012 but who’s counting, Doctor Who was back on our television screens with the opener to series 7 Asylum of the Daleks.  This story was heavily teased and was heavily promoted for quite some time it did in fairness have a pretty good surprise in it.   Asylum of the Daleks was written by Steven Moffat and he had been hyping it up.  So did the series opener deliver?  Did it live up to all the hype or does Asylum of the Daleks deserve to be locked up in an asylum itself? 


Well for a story to start series 7 it did accomplish what it intended.  It got everyone excited and talking about Doctor Who.  Not a bad thing really.  By the end of the story it sure got people talking.  I’m talking about the surprise appearance of Jenna Louis- Coleman. Yep that’s right the same actress that will be The Doctor’s new companion later in the series.  She is playing a character named Oswin.  Now whether or not this character is the new companion or opens up a big can of worms at the time I was sure surprised that this did not leak out considering all the screenings this story has had.

Doctor Who - Asylum of the Daleks (Mild Spoilers)


Doctor Who – Asylum of the Daleks

Review by Ken Parker

(Mild Spoilers)

Here I was, sitting back to watch another premiere episode of Doctor Who, hoping that the excellence of Steven Moffat would show up in the series that he is producing. His writing during Russell T. Davies's era was outstanding and with two seasons of cluttered confusion under his producing belt, I am still waiting for a return to greatness.
