I actually liked The Day Of The Doctor.

Lemme explain. No, there is too much, lemme sum up.

Here is my explanation:

DO YOU SEE HOW AWESOME THAT IS?!

DOTD was pure fanservice. It was awful plot-wise, absolutely. Did Matt Tennant and David Smith bicker? Yes. Was William Hurt there to act as a foil to their manic natures without stealing the entire scene? Yes. Were the Time Lords there but their part didn't steal the entire show? Yes.

Here's the thing; I liked Day of the Doctor because it was entertaining.

It was awful, bad, yes, and it didn't resolve the red slug tentacle things, yes, but it was entertaining.

Which is more than I can say for season 7.

The ending sucked, though.

Woah woah woah woah woah. I liked the happiness patrol it had fantastic dialog a novel idea and some of the best single scenes in the show. It just had a terrible overarching plot to it all. Also Kandy man while creative was not selling it for me. The hamfisted lashing at Margarette Thatcher (Whose bitchiness crosses the seas) sours my feelings to it. IT tried to be too modern and gets all moffaty in the process. I feel it would have subtler to have the word "SYMBOLISM!" flash on the screen over and over again after some of the scenes. Over all I like the idea and some of the scenes, and the Noir feel but felt it could be tied together better.

Greatest show in the Galaxy was my 7th doctor introduction...and It was love at first sight. I wouldn't want to rate it because of bias

Rememberence of the Daleks was the strongest one IMHO its nice and campy filled with fan-service that extends past fan-service. A poke at continuity and subverts the stairs weakness . The white dalek design is a bit of a groan-worthy pun wise but McCoy's utter deflation of Davros's rant is one of the most hilarious things in Doctor Who. Period. Its the beginning of seven's darker side showing through and is utterly captivating. Although it doesn't always have a flow to its scenes. Its very RTD but the dalek just going unstable at the end was very ...moffat. Least "Dalek" had a better reason for causing the destruction and killing itself. This one's death was better suited for a Cyberman.

I haven't seen Silver Nemesis I wont judge it
ill justify the rest of me later.
