Legend
I think it wise to remember that with a new doctor, new companions, and new showrunner... it is basically a new show, creatively speaking. And it usually takes a while for a new show to find its footing. We have had 10 episodes, which is just barely long enough for them to get into the loop of writing, production, presentation, and audience feedback. They now have a break to pause and examine their work, and make adjustments.
I haven't watched it yet but have caught up on everything else. For me something didn't click in the Capaldi seasons. He was fine as the Doctor I think it was the storytelling. Just finished Babylon 5/Expanse/Vikings/Outlander and House of Cards so need something new to binge watch and have the next week off.
