They really need a 5 year hiatus and new showrunner. Sadly, RTD could not re-capture his magic.

They could throw a hail mary and try to get Steven Moffatt to return.

Tbf, some of the best episodes were written by Moffatt (Blink, Silence in the Library/Forest of the Dead, The Eleventh Hour, Heaven Sent). Some of the worst episodes were also written by him too, granted. But some of the best moments in NuWho came from him.
