You can be dark and a dick and still likeable. Capaldi didn't really have that "IT" moment for me, but I'm not writing him off.

I liked it. It started kind of rough, but by the end it got pretty good.
I loved the cameo by Smith.
Question. How would you guys rank the introductory episodes of all the new Doctors?
I have it as
1) "Eleventh Hour"
2) "Rose"
3) "Deep Breath"
4) "Christmas Invasion"
I have "Eleventh Hour" and "Rose" pretty close because they are both great. "Eleventh Hour" eeks it out for me though because I went into it with such low expectations and it completely blew me away.
"Deep Breath" wasn't anything special compared to other Doctor who episodes, but it was okay. "Christmas Invasion" almost made me quit watching. Thankfully i still watched "New Earth" and had my faith restored.

I liked Capaldi in this ep more than I liked Smith in Eleventh Hour.
My New-Who opener rankings:
Rose
Deep Breath
Eleventh Hour
Christmas Invasion
This ep was also the best that Clara's ever been, and I like Clara.
Most quotable ep in years.
Strax and co are back to being good and not a drain on an episode.
I loved the cameo, but found it unnecessary.
Some reviews are attacking the ep for Capaldi being too Matt Smith-y ("he wears a tie," "Geronimo," etc.). FFS, Tennant in Christmas Invasion did a bunch of Ecclestone things.
