"The Devil's Chord"

All right, it's hard to make the case that this one was less silly than "Space Babies," but I enjoyed this one more, largely on the strength of Jinkx Monsson's delightfully unhinged performance as Maestro, and the fact that I love The Beatles (not that they get a lot to do).

This is one of those high-concept episodes built around an interesting premise ("the world would end if there was no music") that DW often does really well. I think in this case, they could have done a little more to show the lives of the people in this music-free world, but it worked well enough.

Having Lennon/McCartney finish the Maestro off with the lost chord was blindingly obvious, and extremely perfect.

I've got to say, Chris Mason did an amazing job capturing John Lennon's mannerisms while singing. I happened to watch "Let It Be" the other day, and the guy did his homework. Pour one out for George and Ringo, though - they really didn't get anything to do.
