Favorite Writer<\/strong><\/p>\n

Now we get into the controversial opinion (as with a few other challenges). I have many that I really like.\u00a0 From the classic era there’s Robert Holmes, Douglas Adams, Terrance Dicks, Malcolm Hulke. And new ones like Mark Gatiss, Russell T Davies, Jamie Mathieson.\u00a0 But there is my favorite, and a lot of people said he is the worst writer Who has ever had and he has ruined it… blah, blah.\u00a0 But I think he was great!<\/p>\n

The Moff himself, Steven Moffat.<\/p>\n

\"\" He has been a fan just about his whole life, written stories<\/a>, a skit<\/a>, before being hired to write for the show, then writing some of the most beloved episodes, and then becoming showrunner beginning in 2010 (and at the same time co-creating and write for Sherlock with Mark Gatiss).\u00a0 He also wrote the 11th, 12th Doctors and\u00a0 created the War Doctor, created River Song, and turned the Master into a woman (Love Missy!).\u00a0 As well as the Weeping Angels, the Silence<\/a>, and Ohila of the Sisterhood of Karn<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Episodes that I loved are in chronological (or would that be timey-wimey?) order below:<\/p>\n
