Series 5 was probably the best large-story arc out of the whole new series. The rest of Matt Smith's run was kind of weak. Seemed like Series 6 and 7 were too focused on the large-story arc (River Song, Clara) which were largely uninteresting and didn't warrant being the sole focus of the show. I also feel like there were stronger single episodes under Tennant during Russel T Davies's run (coincidentally most those episodes were written by Moffat): The Girl in the Fireplace, Blink, Midnight, The Waters of Mars..
I gave Torchwood a try.. couldn't make it past the 2nd season

Yeah, Dr. Who is my culture behemoth. My Dad has watched since it was top hats and huge scarves.
I've enjoyed when we sit down together and catch an episode [over Christmas we watched an episode where he was in a town somewhere outside time where he grew old, and the brunette chick back in 'reality' in the apartment had family over for, . . . Thanksgiving dinner I think].
But then I did catch every episode of Torchwood, so.
