I love Moffat's era of Doctor Who and actually I love this episode as well. The episode was incredibly dark, it hinted at the fiftieth special and tied up a few loose ends to finish the series.
But Moffat has more than a few loose ends.
And he only has two episodes in which he can do it!!! And I don't even expect the Silence to be there and they are the easiest option of tying up the loose ends. Here's a list of all the loose ends:
And my main problem with Series 7 was Clara. She was a walking plot device!!! She had more character in the first episode and the Christmas special than in the whole of Series 7 part 2 (my favourite incarnation of her was the Christmas Clara). However, she was boring and just the same as every other companion in the second part of the series. Not to mention that six of the episodes were boring filler (but let's not go there). To the point: I want the funny, quick at problem-solving, inquisitive Clara from Christmas back.
All in all, this was the only episode I like (which had wonderful acting in River's goodbye scene) in an abysmal second part to the series.
Moffat better save his show before the fiftieth.

- Who was that voice in the TARDIS in S05E12? - What the point in the Silence blowing up the TARDIS in Series 5 if they already killed the Doctor in Series 6? - What happened at Trenzelore? - How does the Silence link in with the Great Intelligence's plot? - Why did the Silence not want the Doctor to be asked the question at Trenzelore? -When did the Doctor even tell River his name (she didn't know at the end of Series 6, I actually thought River would find out at Trenzelore)? - Who is John Hurt's Doctor?
