Oh man, I am loving the current series of Doctor Who.
I struggled with Capaldi's first season - mainly because of the story telling. There were some excellent individual episodes, but the meta story, which started out really well, just didn't pay-off for me. It didn't have the coherence of some of the better series, and seemed like it couldn't figure out quite what it was after the Matt Smith era
second season I started out dubious, but eventually liked.
Am now totally on board with Capaldi's Dpctor and his storylines - just in time to say goodbye :P
The new companion has allowed his Doctor to fully step out of 11th's shadow, and has returned him to his status as mysterious other, now that we are not seeing him through the eyes of a companion who knows him better than he knows himself.
Also, Bill is an excellent companion.
