I really enjoyed the finale, and have enjoyed the season overall, but I do understand your reticence. I liked the season, and thought it came together surprisingly well, but even so, the season wasn't perfect for me.
I didn't care for "The Beast Below," for example, which a lot of people loved.
I find that I tend to get caught up by the little things. Example: If the Doctor died/was dying in the museum, why didn't he regenerate? Other than the fact that MS has signed on for another season, I mean.
IMHO, Moffat is very good at the thematic overarching bits, but tends to stumble on the details.
So, even though I thought this season was a lot of fun, and I enjoyed it, I wouldn't say it's 'perfect' Who. If that makes sense.
