This new season is just lacking the absurdity and general weirdness that used to make Doctor Who so entertaining.
I mean, a leather jack could work as villain, with some more creative writer. Just imagine: a shapeshifting alien travels back in time to the 1950s to disrupt Rose Park - disguised as The Fonz from Happy Days! I'd watch that story. Or better yet make things even crazier: Krasko could've been some sort of time-travelling Confederate cyborg, trying to find his way back to the Civil War but ended up in 1950s Alabama by mistake and starts causing trouble. The possibilities are endless, anything but the boring villain we got.
