6. Quality of Acting
I'm sure you would agree the more time you spend in a certain role, the better you get at it. And its no different here. The more I see of Matt Smith's Doctor, I want to EVEN more! He really can show SO many different sides to him, child-like, yet old and wise all at once. In this series, his acting has been incredibly powerful and really great, especially the more serious and emotional scenes. And, Karen and Arthur were really great as Amy and Rory, this year though, focusing really how much there relationship meant, as the final episode proved. They have firmly become my favorite companions. All the actors skills have improved since series 6, each becoming more confident in there roles. Sadly no more Amy and Rory, but the good thing is, we still have more of the Doctor to come.
