You know, I totally understand people who are disappointed on the "another white male" front, but they who complain on account of Peter Capaldi's teeth (I kid you not) or because he's not young or deny his acting power awesomeness are just plain wrong on the internet. Also sadly the casting announcement seems to have led to a resurrection of Children of Earth hate, which, bah.
But seriously. Even deniers of Children of Earth greatness should be able to see that Peter Capaldi did scene after scene of essentially one man speaking to a big glass tank and made those tense and suspenseful and riveting? That he took a character who is that most disliked thing, a bureaucrat sanctioning horrors, and made one care?
