I thought it was enjoyable, not great but at the same time not bad.
Maybe because i don't care about things like interracial families, pronouns, binary/non binary...
They retconned Donna's fate by introducing a plot McGuffin, Rose, and I was fine with that.

Dr. Lecture returns. He's back, and this time he's more childish than ever.

A (bad) wolf in meep's clothing of a story. They've learnt nothing about what was really going wrong with this show it seems.

Truth is, it was in the wind as soon as we found that Davros had grown legs and lost his scarring. (In a patronising sop to wheelchair users apparently.) [See the recent Children in Need stuff.]

This Harry Potter-fied show is on life support - a bit like the old Davros - in its sixtieth year no less. It'd be some legacy if RTD gets to revive and see off the show in his two terms. Anyone at the beeb have the balls to have their finger on the switch I wonder?

You're damn right. How can there be any suspense when future science magic can undo anything with a flick of the sonic or a babble and a bound. NuWho's big red UNDO BUTTON just gets worse and worse. (It's worse than Star Trek was for this and that show had a reputation for it.) No recurring character - those on the doctor's side that is - is sure in their negative fate any more. (If the actor in question is still living in particular!) They'll be finding a forgotten reverse gear on bloody Adric's spaceship next!bladewave

I quite enjoyed how the over-inflated Furby explained its pronouns then turned into a genocidal megalomaniac. That part was at least believable laugh

The rest was utter bollocks. More childish than anything CBeebies could ever turn out. Tennant must have been beaten over the head with a large sack of cash to get involved with this nonsense.

Tennant was having an absolute ball. He'd probably have done it for free.

The Gremlin on steroids was rubbish, but apart from that I enjoyed it.
I like Rose. I wish they'd got her onto the Tardis as well, for the next episode.

Actually (*reaches for tin hat and checks the sandbags*) I wouldn't mind the occasional special with a past Doctor. They don't need to contrive anything.
Doctor Who having a chronological order is contrived anyway.

There's no reason Matt Smith, for instance, couldn't just rock up and have a stand alone adventure somewhere. It's not a case of 'bringing him back', could just be something that happened, that we just didn't see at the time.

Disney's plan, I believe, is for further stories with Tennant & Tate anyway, whilst Gatwa does his thing.


RE: Dr Who - Stemmw - 02-12-2023 20:03

Well tonight's episode was better than last week. But they don't feel like anniversary specials at all. Just a couple of episodes in the middle of a series that you'll never think about again.

I'd agree that I enjoyed this week's one more than last week; perhaps because at times it felt like it was written by a grown-up for a change.
