Peter Capaldi is such a compelling actor, he can take material teetering on the edge of ridiculous and sell it like a mad carnival barker.April 22, 2017
Ah well: The Doctor and Bill's growing friendship and Bill's character in particular are the real joys of "Smile," and they are likely what will linger in the memory more when looking back on the season as a whole.April 24, 2017
While this episode did sport numerous references and nods, its story was different enough to not come across as simply a rehash.April 24, 2017
Overall, it's an okay episode but it's unlikely to go down as a stand out story you'll want to watch over and over.April 24, 2017
It's fun, but it all makes me a bit leery that this whole season may end up being a bit too much of a farewell tour for the outgoing showrunner.April 24, 2017
Smile presents interesting ideas but, as drama, is as bland and insipid as emojis themselves.April 24, 2017
It's not amazing, but it is solid in a lot of ways, and also illustrates a trend with the Twelfth Doctor I hadn't fully realized: he's wrong a LOT.April 24, 2017
This episode was rather reminiscent of the Russell T Davies era -- light of touch, packed with ideas and neat gimmicks, lovely writing, lots of heart and just scary enough.April 24, 2017
This jaunt wasn't so much about whodunit but why, and despite the "robots taking over" plot, it was the human colonists' reaction the gave us chills.April 24, 2017
You'll be inclined to forgive this episode its flaws though, because the big thing to take away from it is how it proves without a doubt that, in Capaldi and Mackie, we have one of the best TARDIS teams in ages.
