Will no one rid me of this turbulent doctor?

Season 8 has it's first real filler episode with "Robot of Sherwood" and that's not neccecarily a bad thing. The episide felt like an amalgam of a Jon Pertwee and Sylvester McCoy episode. It was nice to have an episode where you knew what was going to happen next. It almost played like a Classic-Who-Greatest-Hits in that regard. Capaldi has really come into his own by now. He continues to perfect the pig-headed aspects of the Time Lord's many personas with ease. Not much else stands out here except for light fun. The idea of legends and their nature is about as deep as this one gets, which after last weeks episode, is okay.
