Once again, I don't see what's so bad about this episode

Both Love and Monsters and Fear Her are considered the worst episodes of Doctor Who ever. I don't really see why. Love and Monsters is an enjoyable albeit weird episode, and this one is a more serious installment. Fear Her is intriguing, it has a tense atmosphere, and a nice ending. The directing and the music worked really well throughout the episode to keep the audience interested and helped create a creepy tone in many parts of this episode. Rose and the Doctor were both great, and the ending was really nice. There was a fair bit of deus ex machina in the resolution to the episode. I don't really get how Chloe and her mother singing defeated the evil-dad that she drew. The rest of the episode was good though, and it helps to foreshadow the finale in the coming weeks.

Once again, Fear Her is a pretty underrated episode. The first 35 minutes were creepy and actually good; and the ending- although rushed- was nice. 7.5/10
