After two incarnations of the Doctor and five companions, Steven Moffat's era of Who is over. So what do we think of it overall?
(I'm sure there was a previous thread on this subject somewhere but couldn't find it to bump it)

I think everything I love and everything that slowly grew to grate on me about the Moffat era was in Empty Child/Doctor Dances.
-Monsters from ordinary objects
-Big TARDIS teams
-The Doctor' Sexuality
-Everybody Lives
There are others.
I am fine with all of them to a point. I think the relationship between River and the Doctor was amazing. The Amy, Rory, Doctor (&River) TARDIS team is an all time favourite of mine. I just think Moffat wrote better single episodes than he did series arcs. This is evident in the last series when he's not trying too hard to make everything line up and the series turns out great.
I would love to visit a parallel universe where Moffat wrote Sherlock and Doctor Who at different times.
(Obviously, this would not be the first thing I did if I had those powers)

This is a question I need to think about but what I do think is impressive is Moffat wrote more regenerations than anyone else. 8 into War. War in 9. 11 into 12 and 12 into 13. And kind of 1 into 2. That's a thing.
