Next Who Sunday: The Name of the Doctor, Steven Moffat

I have to admit, I was completely confused about pretty much everything in this episode except the Doctor’s farewell kiss to River. Moffat’s Doctor-centric mythology got so tangled by the time we got here, that I was always pretty much always lost throughout the season (although I loved the tour of the Tardis in “Journey to the Center of the Tardis”) and I still don’t know what happened in this one. The Doctor visited his own grave, River did an inter-dimensional conference call, Clara fell through all the timelines rescuing all the Doctors which I found annoying, The Great Intelligence killed itself (I think), John Hurt showed up as a Doctor but not one of the The Doctors (huh? never mind, I saw the anniversary special, but now I have no idea what number of Doctor we’re on), and then the Doctor went into his own time stream . . . Look, it’s the season finale and it sets up the Christmas story where Matt Smith turns into Peter Capaldi, so we’re watching it, but I don’t know WTF is going on. Except for the Doctor kissing River, that was excellent, although I still don’t understand if that’s it for River, except she died back there with Ten, so shouldn’t she still be hanging out with Twelve since her timeline is backwards?

My head hurts.
