Actually, what would've been even better would be if it took the form of Susan, the Doctor's granddaughter.

Or look like River, maybe?

I think that may be why just about every episode has made me cry at some point.

Cool reaction, but did not like the frog. It could have taken any form. I loved the Day of The Doctor, and The Name of the Doctor, The Two Doctors, The five Doctors, and The Three Doctors,any where The Doctor meets his past self. Why could not this form read the doctors mind and make it's self Look like a past Doctor, or a past companion?

I think your thoughts on the season Brianna goes along with the general consensus of the series. I doubt you will get any hate like you said. This new writer is good at writing episodes about characters, not the story or clever time travel plot tricks like before. I really like the new Doctor and team TARDIS, but the episodes weren't strong on the monster of the week.

(Sorry this is quite long so read only if you want to) Yeah the theme this series was definitely family. One thing I love to point out is the use of "fam" in regards to what the doctor wants to call her friends. In the first episode she brings it up when they all first meet. Then in Arachnids in the UK she brings it back up when they decide to commit to traveling with the doctor saying that "fam still doesn't quite work." Then it basically all culminates in the finale. The Doctor calling them all "fam" is kind of a marker throughout the series for where everyone is a team, imo. Family was a constant throughout all of this series not just with Graham, Ryan, Yaz, and the Doctor but also with the side characters in each episode. The woman who fell to earth with the man trying to get his missing sister back from Tim Shaw, Ghost Monument with Angstrom and Epzo, Tsuranga Conundrum with Yoz the pregnant alien dad and the brother engineer with the sister pilot, Kerblam had Dan with the necklace from his daughter and Kira who said she never knew her parents, Witchfinders with Mistress Savage being cousins with the same woman who's grandma she killed, and finally this episode of course had Eric and Hanna. This series just has so much to offer if you really look and I love it!

Just a minor note - the actress playing the daughter is actually blind.

I feel like the overall theme of this season is more personal. I mean, we have Graham following along despite the fact that it got his wife killed. Yas is trying to figure out if there's more to life than arguing with parking violators. Ryan and Graham have to figure out what connects them now that Grace is dead. This might seem trivial to fans that expect major cosmic epic-ness from each season, but I think it fits with the stories themselves ultimately being very personal this season. I could be wrong, though.
