What you said about Amy. Although I still like her because I kind of like it when my characters are dicks (*cough*Dean*cough*) but that's only because I SEE her actions as dickish and kinda silly. This is, however, predominately a kids' show and it was presented like Amy was a martyr and... I think kids will be confused...
Also, it was a bit daft to set up a break up all the way to DIVORCE and then fix it IMMEDIATELY in the same episode...
IDK. Issues with DW lately. I still actually really enjoyed the episode... but DW's something I watch v. casually now. If I were to invest in it, like I do with SPN, I suspect I'd see more and more flaws... which SUCKS because I've generally really really ENJOYED Moffat's writing...
And that's not even getting into the issues of misogyny in Moffat's writing that, the more I hear about it, the more evidence keeps piling up :( I never ever thought I'd miss RTD, and I STILL think Moffat's writing is better narrative-wise but... I'm UNEASY about Moffat's stories now in a way I never was with RTD's *sigh*
