You know I’m not at all invested in Danny/Clara because we didn’t get to see them as an organically developed relationship. It was just foisted on us and we’re supposed to believe they are oh so in love when every moment feels forced and boring and often embarrassing. But I love what Danny could…

This is exactly what I am talking about. I 100% agree with you. If I knew more about Danny;s background, if I knew how he became this caring, too perfect guy, I might just care more about what is happening to him right now. I actually liked the flashbacks since there was more Danny character development shown after he died than pretty much all season. I think if we saw more of what Clara supposedly saw in him, it would be more tragic for me.
