... I think it should have been aired in the first half of the series as was originally planned. Seeing it right after Let's Kill Hitler ...

I agree in theory, but was personally okay with that because I'm not even remotely invested in the larger River Song story-arc. Moffat's completely lost me on the big picture, I'm sad to say.

My only problem with the father/son relationship was the conceit of putting the things that scared the boy in the cupboard at the foot of the bed. I let it got because I was enjoying myself, but jeez ... bad parenting 101 or what?

I'm the other way around; I'm so eager to see more of the overarching plot that Night Terrors was a bit of a disconnect for me (though I still liked the episode very much).

Hah, yes, putting scary things in the cupboard seemed a bit much, considering it was in his bedroom! OTOH George didn't actually seem that afraid of the cupboard itself. He probably felt that sending things in there actually did away with them, so apparently it worked...
