Apparently there are fans who are calling for Neil Gaiman to take over running Doctor Who whenever Steven Moffat steps down, which I was unaware of until now…

Bratty Angie with her “stupid box” and “I’m bored” and “the future is stupid”… She gets to travel in the TARDIS and we don’t? WTF?
And yet I can’t seem to get advanced access to the episodes…
There are a lot of promises implied and outright made here — We’re going to learn all the Doctor’s secrets! — that it will be almost impossible for Moffat to satisfy.
Oh no! Ryan Britt at Tor.com reveals why he’s “Probably Going to Have to Break Up With Doctor Who.” Sadness!
There’s a ton of stuff here that kinda doesn’t make sense, but I kinda liked “Hide” anyway. It reminded me of the Gothic era of Tom Baker’s tenure as the Doctor, which might be the single most consistently fun stretch of the show ever.
By now you may have heard that the title of the final episode in the current series is entitled “The Name of the Doctor”…
