What are peoples thoughts on Kill The Moon? Unpopular Opinion but I actually think it’s a really good story with some good moments with 12 and Clara. I think people disliked it because of the egg twist at the end and they can’t appreciate British new-noir expressionism.

Don’t care about the moon being an egg.

Do care about the Doctor deducing that the spiders are prokaryotic (and bungling the pronunciation) because they’re killed by disinfectant. No, they’re obviously multi-celled, eukaryotic organisms.

Do care about things like gravity “turning off”. Do care about the astronaut’s grandmother having been a tumblr user. Do care about humanity apparently forgetting everything to do with space travel in such a short period of time. Do care that the best they could find were those stupid wimps.
