Is it just me, or has Mark Gatiss been channelling Dan O'Bannon?

Content-less crap; I expected better from Gatiss. I don't like the iDaleks either - daleks should be camp, and these new chaps fail on that completely.

Why expect better? His previous episodes are amongst the worst. The 1950s one with the evil black-and-white TV sets and the one in Cardiff about Charles Dickens. Still not as bad as the "Fear Her" one.

I liked Idiot's Lantern and Fear Her. This was waaaay weaker.

All those are flawed (and hardly unique in that :) but are at least sustained by an underlying structure that doesn't make my head go ¡spang!, unlike this little heap of fœtid zarbi excrement. Gatiss' previous efforts were at least way better than RTD's worst, and Idiot's Lantern pretty much edged into "good" for me.
