My problems with the show started earlier, still during Tennant's run. They kept writing scenes where his companion would gush about how great he is, and The Doctor would brag about himself in a way that didn't feel like a character flaw. I preferred the writing when he would make a good Dalek, when Rose had the realization she'd been kidnapped by a fae creature. Everything's gotten so chipper and quirky, and I don't feel like the writing is thought about very deeply.
